Newspapers Read
First
After letters, the newspapers receive
the first attention when the m ail s rri.e s .
And while reading the news the eye
catches advertisements printed along
side. Some of these are read at that
time. Others, only noticed then, are
seen ia the next issue and more people
gratify their aroused curiosity by read
ing them. By the tim e the advertise-
msnt has appeired four times consecu
tiv e ly nearly every reader of the paper
has received its message.
Run Ad Several
Times
I t is good policy ordinarily to run an
advertisement four times or more, or to
rotate the signature and the general
form while changing items.
The Cheapest Way
An offer of something especially sea
sonable, or the quolatiou of attractive
prices, is especially effective.
All Read the Papers
T h * co*», to reach the same number of
readers— we don’t mean addressees—

postage to pay, no labor and expeute of
