however, at Spurn Head that the great

The people who read newspapers
and magazines have, as rule, a belief
that publishers have no conscience
about loading up their periodicals with
advertisements at the cost OF reading
matter. Yet occasionally some proof
comes TO the surface that publishers
have some scruples in this respect.
The Ladies' Home Journal, for exam
pie, will accept just so many columns
OF advertisements, and no more. This
proportion, for instance, is 20 columns
OF advertisements as against l22 col
umns of reading matter in each issue
OF As pages. When the advertising
space is full all business is declined.
The skeptical may ask, "But is there
any business left to decline?" There
is, decidedly. For nearly every issue
during 1900 there were from four to
twenty-six more columns of desirable
advertising received than could be ac-
cepted, and as each column in the
Journal costs $1,000 the publishers
turned away thousands of dollars,
which, simply because OF principle,
they would not accept. So the inter
ests of the public are sometimes re-
garded where they are not popularity
supposed to be.
