Editor of FIFE VIEWPOINT BEE, Dear Sir: 1 wish to thank you for the large number of answers which 1 have received from my advertisement in your paper and for the large success that has come to my business through your paper. 1 have used five of our best local papers beside THE BEE for advertising and have received from THE BEE five times as many answers as from all the other five put together. 1 can well and truthfully say that we have no paper in our little Nutmeg state to-day that has the confidence or that will bring the desired results to advertisers as THE VIEWPOINT BEE, and would advise every one who has any business of any kind to transact to put an advertisement in THE BEE and would guarantee the best of re- suits. If any one thinks this is an ad
 vertising scheme they are mistaken as I only want to let the public know where the best results are obtained by advertising. The name of the writer, who is regular advertiser in THE Bee, can be obtained by sending let ter to THE BEE office, which will send you my name at once. Yours truly,- [An Advertiser.
