Good Advice.
“There are millions of dollars
lost every year in advertising and
there are more millions made in it.
I consider a standing card kept by
the year, in any paper as a waste of
money. What the advertiser should
do if he would be successful is to
put genuine valuable information
in his space so that the reader will
turn to it a* readily as he does to
the news columns. Let the busi¬
ness announcement be set in plain
type free from display, easily read
and of long primer size or larger.
Old people are valuable customers
and the majority of them have weak
eyes. Make your advertisements
so that they can read every line of
it.
