Now, broadly speaking, we think of advertising as divided into two classes, general advertising and direct adver tising. The first class reaches the masses through the medium of the newspapers and other publications, while the second class reaches the in dividual throug the medium of person al letters, folders, booklets and so forth sent direct through the mails. Under ordinary conditions newspa per advertising must take first rank. The newspaper is the universal mes senger to the hearts and homes of the people, and intelligently; used news- i paper advertising is just as certain to bring results as good stocks are to pay dividends. Note the fact that I said intelligently used. Enough money is wasted every year in unintelligent ad I vertising to make every one in this hall modiately wealthy. For the same is true of banking as a business or of farming or anything else in which men engage. The trouble is not with these things in themselves, but with the way in which they are attempted. Above all, advertising to be effec tive must be persistent. A common mistake is to look for re sults too soon. When a farmer plants his wheat in the fall he doesn't expect a harvest in a week or a month. When you give an order for a ten story office building you don't go around to the site the fol lowing day and except to find a com pleted building. The farmer knows he must wait until the season and the chemicals of the earth work their changes and you know that your building must proceed by gradual stages, brick upon brick, until finally finished. So it is with advertising. The first insertion does not influence the public mind, nor the last, but one added to the other, every one gather ing strength from those that precede it, gradually influence the public mind and bring to your bank the business you desire. A single week or month of advertis ing is merely a blow or two of the cork • gainst the bar of steel. Its effect is absolutely nothing. It is money and effort wasted, but the continuous, per sistent hammering, week after week, month after mouth, is just as sure to start the pendulum of business swing ing your way as day is to follow night. Take our own city of Pittsburg, for instance. More money is expended in legitimate bank and trust company advertising in Pittsburg, than in any other city in the country; hence 110 better place could be selected for the making of comparative figures. There are a great many banks in Pittsburg. About half of them are known the country over because of their liberal advertising. The other half do not believe in advertising on the general idea that they can use their niouey to better advantage. Possibly they can, but the figures are against them. 1 have gone back over the statements of the last five years, comparing the growth of the banks that have adver tised continuously with that of the banks that have advertised only now and then or not at all, and this is what I find: During the five years the banks that have advertised continuously have in creased 38 per cent, in assets and 85 per cent, in deposits. That banks that have not advertised have increased 27 per cent in assets and 11 per cent in deposits. This record is effected nec essarily by the numerous combinations of recent years, but these have been eliminated so far as possible, and the figures given are on the side of conser vatism rather than otherwise.—Wil liam S. Powers, banker, to Pennsylva nia Bankers' Convention. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1905. CURES CATARRHAL DEAFNESS One Week's Use of Hyomei Did nore Than Six Months' Treatment by Specialists In (he treatment of deafness which is often a result of catarrh Hyomei almost 111 mediately upon the inflamed mem brane and the hearing begines to return at once. A few days treatment will bring relief, and in three or four weeks, iaceording to the severity of the ease, a cure will he accomplished. .Miss Meeks, of Mattewan, N. Y., says: "Hyomei is truly wonderful. I have used it but a short time and see a great change in my condition. My hear ing is improving rapidly, and I had no idea I would improve rapidly in so short a time. My breath whicn was so offen sive to myself and others, has lost its bad odor entirely. 1 have spent a great deal of money and can truly say that six months of their treatment is not equal to one month of Hyomei." L. Taggart is selling Hyomei upon tlx? unusual plan of agreeing to refund the money if the medicine docs not cure. A complete outfi' costs only SI.OO and consists of an inhaler that can be carried in the vtst pocket, a medicine dropper and a bottle of Hyomei. The in haler will last a lifetime and there is enough Hyomei for several weeks' treat; ment. Additional bottles of Hyomei can be procured for 50 cents. Compare this small expense with the fees charged by specialists and then remember that if Hyomei does not cure L. Taggart will re turn your money.
