Advantages of,Adver.,,snr.

The New York Tribute thus sets forth The
advantages Of making bne's wants known by
advertisements in newspaper:
IF you want house, there is no need Of
running all over the city, incommoding hun
dreds Of families by long list of questions,
or by overrunning their rooms. If you want
q house, w4se q brief description of such
one as you Wyold like, and advertise il. You
will not wait long before the house will come
to you and thus you will save time, strength,
and annoyance to yourself and others.
"f you have house to. let, bill at the
door may be seen by hundred persons in a
day; an advertisement in the Tribune will be
seen in the same period by hundred thou
and Therefore, advertise; for nine out of
ten who want houses search the newspapers
first.
"If you wanta servant, advertise just as
you would for house, stating what quaiifca-
tons you require, etc. Then, instead Of
hunting through the town, and getting poor
stick at last, you may sit still, and select
from those who will call upon you, the very
one you wanted. III
-" If you want place as servant, apprentice,
or journeyman, don't wander day otter, day
from house to house and shop to shop, bur,
for me mere trife charged for such notices,
Eatsil the whole world wses you can do, and
EEess will soon be numbered. Men don't go
about hunting up labor-rs; they lcok in tho
papers, aud suVe themselves the time aud the
| trouble Of travel.
"1fyou want board. you need not stop ut n
hundred doors to be told that they are fuu, or
Climb uncounted stairs to find that the rooms
don't suit Advertise; tell what rooms and
prices and location you desire, and the next
day open your answers and take choice of i
| dozen first-rate places
''Those who want boarders scarcely need
advice they have long since ceased to depend
upon friendly recommendations and door
Plates, butthey mi Improve in their notices
by moreparticuar explanation Of their accom-
| modations, prices. etc,
elf you wish to sell more goods this year
than you ever did before, advertise more. The
unparalleled success of thuse merchants and
traders who have kept their names and their
goods before the people, is lesson NOT to be
disregarded by any one who depends upon
public patronage for living. The best Gus
toners are those who find out what they want
before they leave homf, and these are tue
ones who Invariably look iu the newspaper to
see where the article is 10 be found
