until he compounded remedy OF his
own, which helped him a great deal.
He sold it to a few friends, and then
resolved to put UP in larger quaint
ties, and advertise it. This story
aims to show how Priest made this
powder we'll known all over Maine, by
advertising. and is intended to point
out to druggists the value OF this
medium of publicity.
Two years ago Priest made about
ten pounds of his powder a year to
supply the demand. Now he has
three tons on hand all the time. Ad-
vertising did it. Priest is no longer
behind the counter in his store. He
goes out over the entire State for a
week at time in his auto. advertls-
ing his powder He says he would
do it with any other line that he had.
His advertisements appear in the
papers three and four times week.

bv a druggist 1000 miles away under

longer willing to buy such prepara-
tons which are simply put up under

reality all the same" declares Priest
He has found that something unoer

bring a repeat order because the Gus

store to get it.

Every ad has individuality. Priest
tries to appeal to a different taste
every day. Samples of the powder
are given away, because they invarl-
ably bring orders.
1t is the fact that this prescription
is put up by Priest himself that
makes him advertise it. He told the
Journal editorial man he would not
do this for any prescription simply
put I'D under his own name and not
prepared by himself. Priest keeps
hammering away at this one thing
because he has found it pays. He
hammered away at different things
he put up himself until he found this
one. 1t is not the powder, but the
principle that Priest goes on. He be-
lieves druggists can and should ad-
vertise their own prescriptions and
preparations, provided they are their
own. Customers have told this mer-
chant that cough medicines put up
