Advertisino
No. 19.
People generally read advertisements more than they did a few years ago.
The reason is to be found in the advertisements themselves.
Advertisers are more careful than they used to be. They make the advertise
j tnents more readable. Some of them eveti become, in a
way, a department of the paper, and people look for them
every day with as much zest and pleasure as they turn to /T~\,
any other feature.
This is true of many department stores all over K T-* ,£$
In many cities there is just one man who appre- j vt\ t
i dates Lhe value of such interest. f.v
He breaks away from the old set Rtyle. He tells / 1?
! something interesting 111 his space every !& 112. •*-:
There are lots of interesting things in 1
business. Look over the miscellany page of vfj /
any palter —look at its local news columns, 3 j
and its telegraph news, for that matter, A -~ jr I
, tnd you'll see that the majority of the »
! items are more or less closely related to W-fi-*
i -ome business fact.
Dress these facts up in a becoming »ut ,tu merchant doJ?off kt,
| .jarb of words, and they will find readers, ptdtstal."
; iven though they be in a ruero advertisement." Let the merchant come
down off his pedestal and talk in his
