The Merit of Advertising.

Advertising is straight business
proposition. 1t is the quickest, most
effective and least expensive way for a
merchant to make his existence known
to the public, to tell them what he has
to sell and why they should buy it Of
him. 1t stands on its own merits. 1t
is worth all that it costs. The dealer
who uses space merely ito help the
paper" will not find it profitable. The
publisher who solicits advertising OH
the plea Of charity" deserves no re
spouse. Charity is all very well in its
way, but it must not be mixed with
business.
Every institution, from the mammoth
department store to the crossroads
grocery, can utilize advertising success
fully. Space in the smallest country
weekly is as valuable in proportion to
its circulation as that of the largest
city daily. The one reason for using it
that the local merchants should have is
that it pays them. 1t is the most eff
fective method of covering their imme-
date vicinity. "A
