DEERING MERCANTILE CO. 54-58-60 Dept I 4 Wabash Ave.(Chicago* B " r ° MAN ' B Work. I® Arrows for Advertisers. There are great opportunities iu the South for -X/l profitable advertising. If interested, write us. Wh\? Advertise in Woman’s Worl<? IT is contrary to our custom to praise our magazine or to solicit busi ness through this column, but perhaps it will not be amiss to give a few of the many reasons why we think Woman's Work should be included in the list of every general advertiser admissible to our pages: 1. The rate is lew for guaranteed circulation. 2 The character is high; all reading matter is prepared especial ly for Woman’s Work, and its nature is such as to appeal to all ages and conditions —to every member of the family. 3. A woman’s magazine is more carefully read than any other class of periodical. 4. A mail-order woman’s magazine of good style and high stand ing is worth more to the advertiser than any other periodical of equal circulation, but distributed through newsdealers or pattern agents. 5. Woman’s Work was established more than twenty years ago, therefore has many advantages of age and confidence in the public mind. 6. The South is just now a wonderfully attractive field, by reason of its rapid development in all lines and the consequent demand for all classes of goods used in the home, the store, the factory, on the farm, in the village or the city. 7. The South has few mediums of general character and circula tion, and no woman’s monthly or other magazine similar in plan or purpose to that of Woman’s Work. 8. The advertiser is in good company when he enters the columns of Woman’s Work: we refuse a great volume of bu iness—admitting no tobacco or whiskey advertisements, and nothing of a nature to offend refined tastes or exercise a questionable influence over good morals. 9. The arrangement of advertisements in Woman’s Work is especially advantageous: instead of whole pages of matter jumbled to gether, we place every notice next to reading matter, giving greatly increased effectiveness to display, and adding much to the earning power of copy. 10. Our space-discounts are liberal, and offer decided inducement for an advertiser to use seven inches or more in an issue. We do not offer discounts for long time: such system is, in effect, to assess a pen alty against the man who quits after one or two insertions. We do all we can to render profitable service, but if returns are not satisfactory no advertiser is expected to pay for the privilege of withdrawing. 11. There is a peculiar attraction about the name of Woman’s Work: it is dignified, strong, calculated to excite and to hold interest —to command general and lasting respect. The contents of our maga zine are of high tone without sacrificing that wholesome homelikeness that gives a fascinating comfort to old and young, rich and poor, high and low: this is of more than incidental benefit to our adve.tis?rs. 12. Woman’s Work occupies a strong position in a strong field. It is a complete family magazine, having literary and domestic depart ments that appeal to every member of a family. Through its columns all classes of goods may be sold to men, women and children. Its prin cipal circulation is in the South, and the South is no longer financial ly poor. Its natural resources surpass all other sections: its climate is ideal for health, comfort, and for the development of these wonderful natural re sources. The wheels of industry are turning; machinery is rapidly coming to the home of the raw product; the era of prosperity is here. A rich reward awaits every advertiser of meritorious goods who will diligently cultivate this inviting field. The southern people are reading advertisements and buying goods. T© Mvertfeeirs. OUK FIEI9D is THE WORLD, but our home and greatest circulation is in the wonderful South —this rapidly devel oping section of incalculable and un limited resources. Business conditions are now better than they have been for many years. With a cotton crop bring ing over five hundred million dol lars, our people are buying more arti cles of home comfort, more goods of all kinds than they have ever bought in days gone by. As in other sections, the dear women influence, if they do uot make, most of the purchases. You can reach a large number of these families, and secure a liberal share of their trade, by advertising in Woman’s Work.
