plenty of Western "desert," that mys

NEW PHASES OF ADVERTISING.
Every few days the reader of a news
paper observes entirely new uses for
display advertising. Times was when
display advertisements were confined
to merchants and manufacturers who
had something to sell. ThU is true
today ot advertisements in weekly.
Irapers and magazines devoted to lit
erature of good, bad and Indifferent
Qualities, but with the daily press no

churches use regularly the advertis
