U puzzle over tills problem. Home
times you think It does, and then again
you are not certain.
There are days when an attractive ad
vertisement Just "packs" your store
with trade, and Inquiries come diibblin
in for a month afterward for articles
advertised that day. Rut some day:
the advertisement seems to fall flat
Is on these days that your faith grow:
shaky, and If you do not doubt the utll
ity of advertising you blame the card,
If you write your own advertisements
and lose confidence In yourself, you had
better employ some one who makes ad
vertlslng his special business.
To write un original advertisement
every day In the year, on the same
never-ehanginir theme. Is very much
like taking ten yards of dress goods und
making a new and entirely different
dress of it 300 times In succession. It
takes a clever head to do either. He
must see the Btore side of the advertise
ment and the customers' BlJe of it, the
one as clearly as the other. Unwise ad
vertlslng can pull down trade and ex
haust your finances more rapidly than
good advertising can build up the one
or add to the other.
Think of a house which, in the "busy
ason," when everybody is buying cost
)y outer garments, wasting its advertis.
Ing space on three cent and live cent
notions, often not mentioning their val
uable stock once in a whole week. It is
like a sportsman who wastes his am
munition on sparrows when ducks are
flying overhead. The harvest time for
expensive merchandise Is at best but a
short month or two. The cheap, little
profit stuff, like the poor, we have al
ways with us. If an advertiser does not
possess business wlU along with literary
ability, he will never make a success of
his calling. We often see advertise
ments without the slightest literary
merit, written in faulty English and set
up atrociously, which nevertheless are
great advertisements great In their
power of attracting people. They were
full of business, even though they lack
"style."
The kind of advertisements which
would prove a success for one stoic
might not do nt all for another, even
though In the same line of business
and perhaps located right next door.
The capacity for knowing his audience
must be innate In the writer; so must
the business sense.
Remember there are other stores, just
as good as yours, who sell at equally
low prices. Your only advantage and
it is yours if you take It is to have
better advertising than they. This does
not necessarily mean larger advertising
or more costly, for it is not the size of
the space that tells, but what is said
and how It is said that attracts notice
and excites surloslty.
If you cannot spend $1,000 a week in
advertising, spend $500. It you eannol
RnPtlH Bit rtlllflh Clu.n1 H.lA i ..
fiw, arm u your
business will not allow more than $10 to
hn cn lnc.at.ul .1 ....
w ojjtruu mat. uo not say-
there is no advertising except In
large way. One might as" well say that
five-cent package of seeds from the
florist will n.,t. cm.,.. na
" " xru as uie same
seed bought in bushel quantities. liav
good seed and plant it in good soil. n
other words, write a good advertise
ment and put it in a good paper. Ten
flllllfirO In Tl.a ft t ...
... tc Ajuinun win pay for 100
lines of display advertising, nonpareil
measurement. One ftui do more with
100 lines In The Astorlan than with 200
lines in most other papers, because a
line In The Astorlan means generally a
line of type, whereas those papers
which are printed in larger types, a line
of advertising display type will take up
two to ten lines ot space or even more.
A small ndvertisemont can be made
very attractive in The Astorlan. Hero

A little study will enable you to
evolve many other attractive ways of
setting up your ads. in The Astorlan
type. There la hardly any limit to the
combinations possible. Large type eats
space, but you are not obliged to use it
in order to iv-V? n showy ad. in The
Astorlan. -Still we would advise you, If
using the plain type, to have your ad.
on those pages of The Astorlan where
all advers. are so set up, as then your
small ad. has an equal chance of being
seen. A plain ad. might he lost to
view entirely when printed alongside of
fancy type neighbors. There the con
trast is against you, but on the page
with other ads. printed In the same
type as yours the advantage of the
most attractive setting is yours if you
but choose to have It so.
The advertiser who has his eyes and
wits about him has his finger on the
public pulse and knows Its beat. In
oases of emergency his art and wit
may do wonders. Observe the unique
use which a Yankee advertiser makes
it the classics. This man had doe col-
rs, name-plates and rubber stamps to
sell. It was a most unpromising theme
-for what can one say of dog collars?
Here are some of the things he said:
IT IS SELDOM
N THIS cultured city that we see aims
n the windows announcing that "Here
we speak French." or "Here we snealt
German," &c. These signs are common
from New York to San Francisco. In
Boston, owing to the culture, it is taken
for granted, without the signs. We do
engraving in any language, especially
on Dog Collars; also Door Plates and
images. Medals, Stencils, Steel and Rub
ber Stamps, Corporation Seals, Bangles,
Brands, Ribbon Badges. &c. JOHN
SMITH, 2000 Blank street.
