HONE SMITH SPEAKS IN THE FIRST WARD Exclusive and Confidential Market Reports on the Value of Advertising The Lord & Thomas Record of Results constitutes an exclusive and confidential “market report” on the VALUE to the advertiser of space in all newspapers and other good media, regardless of its current price. E VERY day we receive confidential reports from our advertising: clients who sell their goods direct by mail or who have a direct check through retailers. These reports (compiled into our Record of Results) give us the actual returns in sales and inquiries from hundreds of advertisements in thous ands of papers. And because no other commodity bought and sold fluctuates so violently in value without affecting its price, this direct check on the VALUE of adver tising space is as necessary to the advertiser as the “ticker" is to the 6tock broker. Ordinarily, conditions that control the REAL value of space in publications are likely to change without the loss or gain at once becoming apparent. But we are ready to show you how the Lord & Thomas Record of Results gauges the rise and fall of media as accurately and quickly as the thermo meter records the rise and fall of temperature. We will show you how every rise in value gives us an opportunity to secure greater returns for the adver tiser’s money, and how every fall in value warns us to enter a stop-loss order if the fall reaches the danger point. This is but one of the many exclusive features of the Lord & Tbonil service that we want to tell you about We want to explain to you, in detail, the workings of the Lord & Thomas Record of Results, the ONLY practical SAFE-GUARD FOR AN ADVER TISING INVESTMENT. One of our representatives is in your city every few days looking after the interests of some of our present clients. That is why we are advertising in this newspaper—to you—NOW. A letter, granting us an interview in your office, will not obligate you in any way. We are lunlng a series of small books (cloth bound) cossring advertising In *11 Its phases, id free to inter which we ssnd free crested advertisers.
