Advertising Salem

One of the most attractive displays
at the fair is that of C. NJ. Eppley,
manufacturer of the Perfection Pow
der. 1t is in charge of Mrs. j. D.
Walton and attracts the attention OF
practical housekeepers. This is the
Salem product which is displacing
all competitors wherever it becomes
known. 1t is put up in the elegant
glass Jars, which appeal to the buy
ers as just that much for nothing.
Mr.. Eppley is making a success of
his enterprise, and has, within the
past year, been obliged to erect a
factory which is now kept busy sup
plying the dealers. not only of Sa-
lem, but all parts of the state, not
least among which is Portland. The
circulars being put out to advertise
this product are attractive, and will
do much to make our city better
known.
