People generally read advertisement# more than they did a few years ajjo. The reason is to be found in the advertisements themselves. Advertisers are more careful than they used to be. They make the advertise ments more readable. Some of them eveu become, in a way, a department of the paper, and people look for them tvery day with as much sest and pleasure as they turn to r ' . any other feature. This is truo of many department stores all over . the country. In many cities there ia Just one man who appre- 7f ,rJ / dates the value of such interest. ' He breaks away from the old set style.
