him that he sticks to a dead town

Concealed Advertising Out-O Of
Date.

Advertising is a science, and the
merchant who pins his faith to
"locals' and "reading notices" be-
cause he wants his ads "where people
will read Them is deluding himself.
On opening page of a newspaper,
the reader will find himself surprised
if he notes how often his attention
at first attracted to display adver-
tisement, dressed up in neat typogra-
ply, and how quickly he will skip the
same ad. if it be put in with the
news items. The Minneapolis Tri-
bune maintains that this concealed ad-
vertising is obsolete, and in discus
sing the question says:-
"Persons who read newspapers crit
cially must have observed the almost
complete disappearance of the old form
of adverti sing called "pure reading
matt 2r.'
"This was advertising that mas
queraded as something else in order
to command the attention of the
reader. He was supposed to avoid
naked advertising, as child gags
over a dose of medicine unless it was
concealed in some palatable capsule
or sugar coating.
lone who remembers how the old
advertisements were written can un-
derstand this idea better than the
other notion that the advertisement
would be made attractive by casting
it into news or story form. That
is part of the amazing public reverence
for the written word for which,
producers of it are grateful without
understanding it.
''The common notion is that this
kind of advertising is declining be-
cause both newspaper and advertisers
have grown scrupulous about decep-
tion. Far be it from us to reject a
public notion that gives tardy recog-
milton to the sensitive and high-mind-
ed newspaper nature.
''But we are constrained to suspect
that the change has been helped along
by the development Of advertising as
a science, the devotion of great care
and study to it's writing and the
gradual transfer by more attractive
employment and higher rewards to
it's production of the best minds and
hands in the departments of journalism
it used to initiate.
1.-THE change is so complete that
other departments of newspaper writ
ing have come to initiate the attrac-
tive Typography of the advertise
ments.'
