In desperation, Mrs. Heintz buried

Christine VioX to plead with the

But Miss Viox was not of the yielding

She refused fatty to give him up.
No argument moved her. She limited

The thought took root in her brain

her home would be restored in hap

The Newspaper

question. Colossal fortunes
have been built up through
newspaper advertising, but
this experience does not
always convince the mer-
chant or the manufacturer.
AS a matter of fact the
newspaper is the only me-
dunn in which you can do
intensive advertising. Now,
what is intensive adver-
tising?" 1t is advertising
that reaches the largest
possible number Of con-
SumerS in a given locality.
The magazine is a valuable
medium for advertising a
commodity that is used by
a small percentage of the
people. 1t usually covers
the entire country thinly;
but if a man is manufac-
turing a commodity in uni
versal use like food, shoes,
soap or clothing, for which
it is necessary to secure a
very wide distribution the

Now it happens that such
commodities that are pur-
chased by a small percen-
tage of the population are
the ones that usually yield
a large profit. If there is
a profit of one thousand
= dollars on a certain auto
mobile it follows that the
manufacturer may easily
spend two hundred dollars
to sell one car. II would
not require the sale of
many cars at such a profit
to carry advertising in the
newspaper through which
he can reach all the people
of an entire city every day
through many changes of
copy for many weeks. The
profit on such commodities
easily pays for the waste
circulation.
And so it follows that the
newspaper is a valuable
medium for all kinds of ma
tional advertising whether
the commodity is a food
that can be eaten by the
entire human family or an
article of luxury that can
be owned by only a small
percentage of the people.
In other words, ii has a
much larger adaptability to
all kinds of merchandising
than we thought.

tional advertiser uses the
newspapers in a hundred or
more widely scattered cities
and towns, reaching into
every State in the Union,
he is certainly doing ma
tional advertising in the
newspapers. Many manu-
facturers have used maya
zines to popularize a trade
mark, and after having
fixed the trademark in the
public mind they have used
newspapers TO "cash in" on
the trademark and supply
the connecting link neces-
Sary to bring the commod-
ity to the consumer.
We may therefore regard
this fact as proven beyond
controversy that the news
paper is an indispensable
medium for the advertising
of a product that can be
used by the entire human
family.
Now, how about the
newspaper as a medium
for advertising commodities
that can be used by only a
small percentage Of the
population, such as automo-
bileS, safety razorS and
talking machines? On first
thought the superficial
thinker will say that the
advertising OF such a COM
modify in newspapers rep
rcSents a great waste.
