THE LOW COST OF ADVERTISING
SPACE.

Few advertising men know that
advertising space in newspapers is
by far the economical way to reach
the consumer 1t is a fact and the
only reason that advertising was
ever created was because wise and
shrewd business men learned that
they could buy white space in pub
locations at a minimum cost and be-
cause of the message they would put
into that space they could make a
profit on the transaction and make
the advertising a real investment IN
production of sales and goodwill.
In these days of high cost of white
paper and printing the advertiser
could not print full-page advertise
ment and buy the white paper at the
small cost that the newspaper charg-;
es him for the complete page deliv-
cred into the home by invitation.
That is to say, the readers of this
newspaper buy a paper because they
want to read it and because they
know they get more for their money
at five cents than anything else
they could buy at that price. That
is what makes the advertising so val
liable to the advertiser, provided they
have the right message, the right
illustration and the right merchan-
dising plan back of the advertising.
Newspaper advertising is by far
the most economical method to reach
the consumer.

But dinky -dinky -dink, 1t tripped the

AS each of the Vengeance Committee

murders in different degrees, the moon
stone at last opened it's yellow eye on

Franklin Blake insisted that though
he didn't sleep we'll, laudanum wouldn't
help him sleep. The butler quietly re-

Suddenly from the terrace came the
strum of an Indian kettle-drum. The
guests poured out to see three Hindoo
jugglers performing tricks.
The next morning the diamond was
gone!
Next in the horoscope came the po-
