Object Lesson In Advertising

The American Press quotes the fol-
lowing little 'object lesson in adver-
Using:
"a newspaper has 5000 readers for each
1000 subscribers. A merchant who puts
out 900 handbills gets possibly 300 or 400
people to r cad them-that is, if the boy
who is trusted to distribute them does not
chuck them under the sidewalk. The
handbills cost as much as half column
advertisement in the home paper. All the
women and girls and half the men and
boys read the advertisement. Result
the merchant who uses the newspaper has
$500 more readers to each thousand Of the
papers readers. There is no estimating
the amount of business that advertising
does bring to merchant, but that each
dollar invested in advertising bring to
the investor somewhere from $40 to 800
worth of business there can be no doubt.

hunter, armed with a rifle, and the
either hung around his shoulders.
During one of these excursions he
sat down on the trunk of tree and
awakened the echoes of the opposite
chain of hills. Concluding he was
alone, he reveled long in the sweet
sounds. When, however, he ceased
some peasants who had been his
secret auditors drew near to him,
and one addressed the duke in the
cordial way of the country, as fol-
lows: 'Thou, indeed, canst play it
wonderfully; now come with us and
we will dance to thee in the inn
down there. We will pay for as
much beer as thou canst drink"
"Thank you," replied the duke,
II am not thirsty, but I shall Ger
