any reader that it is much better to patronize

The Medium.

Admitting as most merchants do that neWspa
per advertising is the best way to reach GUS
toners, then the question naturally arises,
what shall be the medium used? Naturally
people want good newspaper. That is the
reason the Palladium publishes the best in the
city, as result of which it has the largest
city, rural route and snaI-toWn circulation of
any newspaper in Richmond. The Palladium
will accept no questionable ads, thus giving its
readers confidence in the advertisements
printed. BY reaching seven thousand homes,
whose members have confidence in the pa
per, the Palladium is without question the best
advertising medium in Richmond.

The Merchants.

There are two ways to offset catalogue adver
tisng and cheap goods of the mail order house.
First by keeping your own name before the
people, and second by giving an honest piece
of merchandise for the money you receive. Ad-
vertsing without honest goods, in the long run
will avail you nothing, while honest goods with
out advertising is not business.
