1T REPRESENTS YOU.
Business rlen Should Give Careful
Consideration to the Selection
of Stationery

Stationery-letter heads, envelopes,
statements, bill heads, etc., are part
of the Office equipment of any business,
no matter how small the business may
be. Stationery is necessary part Of
any business, and represents to great
extent the success Or failure of that
business. The average business man
gives too little thought and study to
the selection of his commercial station
cry. He is not impressed with the
fact that good stationery plays an i'm
portant part in business transactions.
Many are not aware that business
houses are judged often times by the
class of stationery used. It is, in real
ity, personal representative of its
owner and his business. Many a
business proposition has found it's way
to the waste basket because of the
quality of paper used upon which the
proposition was made.
No matter how insign ticant the let
ter, if it is written upon high class
paper it will command attention. The
proposition contained in the letter will
be given a second reading instead of be-
ing thrown away. This may seem
strange to the average reader, but it is
nevertheless true and inquiries among
the most successful of business men
will prove this assertion. ~ , ;....
When ordering stationary, ask for
samples, and select high class grade of
bond paper. The cost is trifle more,
but by it's continued use you will find
that you have been amply repaid for
the little extra money put into it.
Another feature of good stationery
that is well to remember is to have it
we'll printed. Good stationery, we'll
printed, is pride and a money maker
for you. Select printer for your sta
tionery who will guarantee to do the
best of work.
