Editor Dennison of the Bradford Era
hits the nail on the head in the following
in his "Random Notes" column: The
profits of advertising are not direct, as
the returns from a sale. Nevertheless,
Wien the proper medium for bringing
an advertisement before the public is Sc
iected the prof. are usually immediate,
although, of course, they come in a
round about manner. If at times they
seem delayed it is because tie merchants
announcement dill not reach the people
win Sc patronage he seeks or because
there is no passing demand for the spec
ial line of wares which he NAV have for
sale. In either case the profit is sure to
come eve tually; for the purpose OF ad'
vertising is to awaken interest in the
tradesman's goods, and once having
aroused the interest the wary merchant
will perceive the necessity of sustaining
it-a result sure to be attained by per
sistent use ofa great newspapers adver'
tising columns.
