Quantity circulation is circulation goes into homes people who have little or power. Quality circulation is which goes into homes to persons who buying Mere numbers in circulation is not what advertisers pay for. They desire quality circulation. Papers left in depots, to be taken free, may reach persons or homes, and MAY NOT. The circulation of a newspajier is not com plete until it has reached its destination, the HOME. The Mount Scott Herald goes into 700 homes each week. The paper goes into the homes. Copies are not left on store counters, to be thrown away by clerks. And people PAY FOR The Mount Scott Herald because it is worth something. It is not FREE to subscribers__ thereby throwing the entire burden of the newspaper’s cost upon the advertisers. The Herald’s circulation is not increasing 20 per cent each week, because the fastest growing newspaper in the United States has not attained such unheard of growth. The Herald grows slowly, but it is rea 1, not Mushroom growth. . ...
