An advertisement placed in the
Dispatch is bound to bring satisfac-
tory returns. Our advertisers ale
almost unanimous in this opinion.
One among The many is Col. D. T.
Blrr, who says that when Miss
Gertrude G=igers watch was stolen
from his home, he advertised for its
recovery in the Dispatch and it was
not long before the watch was found.
Ayain be had mich COW which he
wished to dispose Of, he advertised
10 the Dispatch and had five buyers
in six days and sold the COW at a
good price. Merchants should profit
By Col Birr's experience.
