1t Brought Results.

Congressman Gilbert NJ. Hitchcock
as proprietor of one of the largest pa
pers in the middle west, naturally
enough, is a believer in advertising.
Here is a story he told recently:
years ago an elderly gentleman
came into the office and submitted to
me want adj, Offering a half interest
About a week later the gentleman re-
turned with a beaming smile on his
face and told me he had succeeded in
getting a fine partner through the
want ad.
Several days after that the same
gentleman visited me again and said:
Remember that want ad. l gave you
and how it got me partner? Well, it
didn't stop with that result. My part
ner has decided to board with me. So
you see got a bOarder also from the
want adj
"Lo and behold, about two months
later the a. ,ertiser called to see me
again. Remember that want ad. l
gave you? lie said, that got me part
ner and a boarder? Well, that isn't all
it brought me. My partner, who is a
fine young chap, fell in love with my
daughter, and now I've got a son-in-
law, all through that one little want
adj"
81 can imagine" concluded Mr..
Hitchcock, "that if looked up the adj
vertiser l could find even more remote
results than those mentioned from that
one little want ad."-New York Amer
