NEWSPAPER FIRST.
UNIVERSAL MESSENGER TO TTIK HEARTS
AND HOMES OF THE PEOPLE.
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.

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.
