How to Prosper.

Do not forget that people
abroad judge of the business
prosperity of a town by the num-
ber of advertisements seen in the
local papers. Opelousas should
wake up on this point and let the
world know that we propose to be
in the front rank of the march of
progress and business activity.
No wide awake business man
wants to be quoted as saying that
advertisements don't pay.
A successful advertiser does
more good for his own town than
simply the good he does his own
business.
Getting business means show
ing people what reason you have
to expect business.
Those who make to-day an ad-
vertising day can make tomorrow
business day.
Advertising and business &c
hand in had-one cannot live
without the other.
Give the COURIER your sup
port, and we will give you good,
live up-to-date paper.
