Better Ads OtOOO Quality in advertising means eash returns and a handsome profit. The man who knows enough to advertise, should realize the vital importance of securing the highest benefits from his nds. It is bad policy to plow the soil and forget the seed. It is bnd policy to pay for advertising space and neglect the preparation of same. If you find advertising a necessity you should find it equally in dispensable to have your ads maile worthy representatives of your business. If you feel that your daily occupation interferes with the attention due' to your publicity, let us take charge of same and relieve you 'of ull this worry and trouble. 4 Hire us as advertising managers and let us bring you the results which you have missed so far.
