1t Pays to Discriminate.

The paper which establishes a high character for its advertisements is the paper which in time wins standing with both readers and advertisers, and is able to secure higher rates than the paper which takes anything and everything. An eastern publication which has made a striking success of it's advertising columns has as its rule that "onlY the good. clean sort of ad yertising is accepted" If your goods arc the best of their kind and Of the right kind" the paper announces, the sds. will be accepted" And because the paper has established this high standard and has lived up to it, 1t can truthfully claim that this ''is why re- suits are always big in proE~rtinn to advertising cost"
