Three Ways to Sell a House
The Agent

One Of the best ways
to sell a ouse
is through an agent.
An agent works hard
for his commission; he
must first find a buyer
who is interested in the
kind of property you
have; then he may
spend weeks trying to
convince the man that
he should buy.
Often he does not sell the
house, SO all his work Ii
done without pay. He has
spent his time. but you have
spent nothing.
You should always en-
ploy an agent, however. be-
cause his experience gives
him q degree of skill in clos
ing deals that IL worth all
that be earns in the way OF
commissions.

The Sign

When you put a sign
on your property it at
tracts more attention to
itself than to the house
you desire to sell.
If the property is a
residence and your OBJ
ject is to convince a
prospective buyer Of
the select character of
the neighborhood, a
sign certainly would not
be good taste.
On some kinds OF prop
Srty. such as q vacant lot or
q tumble-down empty house
near an abandoned coal
mine. a sign would not de-
tract from the value OF the
land.
But it would not bring .
buyer out to see 1t. Some
thbg shse 10 required to let
the buyer know where your
property u located.
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1914-12-27
The Bee Want AID

A sign is seen only by
those who chance TO
pass the property. An
agent goes to men who
have never seen the
property and thus
brings it to the atten-
ton Of a greater num-
Der of people,
But a want ad in The
Bee reaches the entire
city.
1t supplements the
work of the agent-it
does not replace him.
Where the agent sees only
q dozen men who are inter.
ested in your property, The
Bee want ad reaches hun
dreds.
Send in your ad without
delay-someone may even
now be looking for the prop
erty you have for sale. The
Gd will be almost sure to
reach him. Try Il anyhow

SIMPLE BUT SURE
hyomeI the Great catarrh Remedy.
"Just Breathe II" and be

Cured
Do not try to cure catarrh, head
colds, or snuffles by taking drugs.
These common but dangerous all
ments that often cause the loss of
hearing cannot be cured hat way. The
commonsense method is to breathe
Hyomei. which gets the medication
right where It is needed to zeal the
raw and inflamed lining of the air
passages.
Hyomei is a mixture of a%ntiseptic
oils-you breathe it-no bother; no
disagreeable medicine; simply use the
inhaler a few times daily and this
health-giving medication will quickly
soothe and heal the irritated tissues,
stop distressing choking and unclean
discharges-you breathe freely-dull
headaches cease. and every catarrhal
symptom soon vanishes.
There is nothing more simple and
safe to use, or that gives such rapid
and lasting benefit as Hyomei-and
