The science of advertising has re- corded almost as much progress and taken on almost as many new phases as the science of printing itself. Wide awake business men have discovered that discriminate publicity is one Of the indispensable keys-perhaps next to quality and integrity the master :. and most effectual applications of the principle is the extensive newspaper advertising done nowadays by epterr prising cities. through their boards of trade or other commercial bodies.
 Such campaigns are particularly on newspapers of wide circulation and high class clientele. southern cities in- cline more each day toward acquaint- ing the commercial and industrial world with their advantages as a place of residence. as buying and selling as sites for manufacturing-cove indeed. the entire range of business activity, as it is compfehended in the routine of the up-to-date municipality.
