The Camion' Advocatk has a large and growing circulation
among tho people who live in Carbon County. These people
have necessities that must be supplied by the Merchant, the
Grocer, the Butcher, tho Clothier, the Shoemaker, and men in
all other lines of business. As a rule these people are all em
ployed, and earn fair wages, a large proportion of which they ex
pend for the very articles our tradesmen have to sell. It is there
fore a matter of great importance to each business man to get as
much of this money as he can. This can be accomplished by
lcttiug these people know that he sells tha best goods for the
least money. And it is essential to his succrss that he impresses
this fact upon the attention of these people. The only way this
can be done is by an attractive advertisement in this paper. It
don't cost much to try it. for the rates are small and the results
big. To catch the spring trade you should advertise now.
