LITTLE LESSON FROM BUTTE.

There are some people who
somehow manage to exist with
out reading the newspapers;
there are many of US who wish
we could live without ever see
ing the glaring, clashing colors
of the billboard. To advertising
the billboards and to a lesser
extent the newspapers owe their
existence. Without advertising
the billboards soon would pass
away, and the newspapers would
be greatly reduced in size and
probably increased in price.
These points of comparison make
especially interesting the expert.
ence of the people of Butte,
Mont, where because of strike
no newspapers were< issued for
upward of four months.
When the daily papers ceased
to appear, the merchants of Butte
turned to the billboards and
worked that form of advertising
to the limit. The "ads" were
made as striking as possible and
changed frequently. They were
enforced, too, by the free use of
handbills and dodgers ofall sorts,
which were scattered far and
wide over the city, so it is prob,
able that the attention of every
citizen was called to the wares
that the merchants had to offer.
Yet, according to a CORE

mercantile business has fallen off

rare where the decline in volume
has been as large as so per cent.
