An Advertising Idea.

The merchants of Santa Barbara,
Cal, after a careful consideration of
the question, have signed a twelve
months agreement not to advertise
in any of the various schemes that
are being constantly presented to
them, and to restrict their advertis-
ing to the regularly published news
papers. Similar action was long
ago taken by merchants in many
Rastern cities. They have arrived
at the conclusion that money spent
in advertising in programs, circulars
and innumerable other schemes is
not only a heavy tax upon them, but
that the money, in most cases, is
about the same as wasted.
1t a celebration is to be had or an
entertainment OF any kind is to be
given, about the first thing the pro-
moters do is to importune merchants
and other business men for adver-
tisements. Nine times out of ten the
advertisements go unnoticed and the
programs, bills or circulars find
their way into the cutters; whereas
an advertisement inserted in local
paper is read and reread by members
OF the household into which it goes.
1t is found in the parlor, at the
breakfast table, on the business
counter, in the office, libraries, hotel
reading rooms, on trains and where
ever people live or congregate.
