Mail Order Business Is On
The Increase When Local
Merchants DontAdvertise

Did you ever notes the big
truck of parcelpost mail brought
from the depot to the poStotfice:
This is a sure sign that business
with the mail order houses is
picking up. Watch the big loads
taken out by the rural carriers
and notice the overloaded big
trucks that take the mail into
the interior county. Thousands
upon thousands Of catalogues
from the mail order houses pass
through this office, thousands of
dollars III money orders aud
drafts are mailed out for mer-
chandiSe. and in return vast
number of parcel post packages
come back to the homes Of pur-
chaSerS. According to Uncle
Sans latest reports the Chicago
puStottice is doing the biggest
business of any postuttice in the
United States, due to the mail
order houses in that city, There
is only one way to combat the
mali order business and that is
to advertise eveflaStingly in the
country newspapers All the
Bargain Sheets" in the world,
all the mimeograph circulars,
glaring pictures and such help
very little to gain a conquest
over the mail order house. Few
of these are read, while the
country newspaper is read 10y
every member of the family, and
the advertisements appeal to
them. Common sense teaches a
person that an advertisement
in a newspaper has more weight
and conviction than an advertise
ment in a circular letter or a
Bargain Sheet" Read the ad
vertisements in your county pa
pers and pitronize firms whit
believe in using the newspapers
for publicity. Will II. Zorn ir

could be held without interference
in Montreal and asked what guar

was not anxious to pass up several
American cities being considered
unless it Is absolutely necessary.
