A Market Bigger Than
You Can Supply

families which are potential Gus
toners.
This 100000 would include
many whom you have already partly
sold more susceptible, a more
fertile opportunity than any other
100000 you could find.
This is the reason why so many
great manufacturers employ a con-
stantly increasing amount of space
i'm the Post.
They realize that any one adver-
tisement has a circulation, not of
two million, but only of that part
of two million whose attention the
advertisement is able to hold.
The full value of each advertise
ment is not realized until the next,
and the next, and the next, have
finally crystallized interest into
action.
And that always there remains
huge, half-sold market, demanding
still further and more intensive cul-
tivation.

No man can visualize 100000
circulation.
No man has ever seen gathered
together 100000 families of the
high character, the broadly varied
interests and the large purchasing
power of those who buy The
Saturday Evening Post
But some conception of the size
of such market can be gained from
this thought:
If every family that reads the Post
should suddenly turn to you to buy
your goods, your business would be
utterly demoralized. For the de-
mand would be greater than you
could supply.
When you advertise i'm the Post
no matter how successfully, you do
not at best sell more than a small part
OF the market which it offers YOU.
Even If you should win 500, there
would still be left vast, uncon-
Quered field of 100000 or more

NEW YORK MILITIA
SLEEP ON THEIR GUNS

New York, June 20.-Hundreds of
members ofsthe national guard regi-
ments remained in their armories last
night and officers and men are pre-
pairing for mobilization at Beekman,
N. Y. Some of the troops expected
orders to start for the camp today,
but the majority of the regiments are
not likely to leave before tomorrow
or Thursday.
Recruiting for most of the regi-
ments to bring them up TO their full
war strength of $50 men to COM
pany of infantry is proceeding rapidly.
Adopting the example set by the
mayor, many employers or guardsmen
announced that the pay of men re-
spending to the call would be coltin-
ued in full or in part.
The Western Union Telegraph COM
pany announced that any of its en-
ployes in any part of the country who
have been in the service of the COM
pany for more than a year viii receive
half pay during their military service
provided this, with military pay does
not exceed their normal salaries.

Seventy Thousand Troops
Will Guard the Border

ICOntlnued from rage One.J
net meeting the opinion prevailed that
the chances were overwhelmingly in
the direction of war. The one hope
was that Carranza would be impress
ed by the military preparation of the
United States and make no further
effort to have American troops with
drawn. There has been no indication,
however, that Carranza's intentions
are peaceful, and every move now is
being planned in the belief that hos
tilities may begin at any moment.
There viii be a rigid enforcement
Of the embargo against arms and mu-
nitions of war and machinery to man
ufacture them.
Unless there is an actual declara-
ton of war the United States cannot
undertake blockade of Mexican ports
to prevent shipments getting in from
foreign countries, under the rules of
international law. Mexico's main
source of supply, however, has been
the United States and no great fear
is expressed that enough war material
could be obtained from across the At
lantic.

Commissioner Frank Pou for the
next couple of days will be mayor,

parks and squares, and will be the
only one of the three commissioners
in the city building.
Assistant Comptroller Dan Murphy
viii hold down the comptroller's Office,

All these changes for a couple Of

terday afternoon for Quincy, stopping
last night at Milton and continuing
through the western counties of the
state to Quincy, where they expect to
report their arrival tomorrow night.
Mr.. Bsyless, the city comptroller, also
went along.
Before leaving the city yesterday
the commissioners got together for
an informal conference on the ques-
ton of selling the dock and belt line
railway bonds, and came to the con-
clusion that the time is not ripe as
yet to accept the offer of the Chicago
bond buyer. This conclusion, how
ever, is not final, and upon return
of the commissioners from Quincy,
which will be about Friday night, the
final answer will be given. There is
now no immediate prospects, it is
said, of the city accepting the offer
made for the bonds, although the
proposition is as good as the city has
ever received for the issue voted
some two years and six months ago.

guard for border duty, went to the
White House few minutes before the
other members for today's cabinet
meeting, for private conference with
the president. After the cabinet meet
ing, Secretary Lansing said the situa-
ton was unchanged.
In congress steps were being TAX
en- to render the national guardsmen
ready for any duty that may come by
the adoption of resolution making
Immediately effective certain sections
of the new army reorganization bill.
Administration leaders in congress
decided not to seek immediate action
on a resolution to provide for making
the national guard eligible for for
eign service, fearing that such step
at this time might be construed by
the Mexican government as warlike
act. Enough regulars are available
now to deal with any emergency
across the border, and if it should be-
come necessary to send in guardsmen,
the resolution then could be rushed
through.
Reports to the war department in
dicated that the mobilization was pro-
ceeding satisfactorily.
From Special Agent Rodgers at
Mexico City, the state department
heard that arrangements were being
made to run a special train from the
capital to Vera Cruz to bring out
Americans and other foreigners. There
are upwards of 1900 Americans in
Mexico City, and grave fears for
their safety in the event of an out
break of hostilities is felt. Mr.. Rod
gers report told of anti-American
demonstrations and other disorders,
but said there had been no actual
attacks.
