Alxyays the Newspapers.

Almost any publicity scheme wiz bring some
returns. but it rs the growing opinion that with
out the aid of newspapers any method must fall
short of its possibilities. Elaborate booklets,
catalogues circulars. calendars and various
trinkets fail to reach the people for whom they
are intended without being advertised in the
newspapers. Thus whisky company issues an
advertising paper intended to take the place OF
