THE
SCIENCE OF ADVERTISING.
Advertising is both a science and an art. We
have studled that science.
Do you know the ART ?
Can you write a catchy ad.?—very few can.
A good ad. is one that catches the eyes, then
holds the attention.'
Can you do it? We can.
Let us write your ads for you, insert them in any paper you fancy, but let us write them for you, we like it, that will be our recompense. Choose your paper, put them in, watch results. ADVICE:-Insert them in the paper with the largest circulation-that is the secret of judicious advertising.
All the papers have the largest circulation, if you doubt it, ask them; then tell us, what they tell you.
The other fellow is losing all the money, True; that is the reason he is able TO KEEP
UP the advertising rate:1
THEY KNOW that the other fellow is losing money hand over fist, if YOU doubt it, ask them, they will tell you candidly; "it is quite true."
The cheapest ad, is the dearest. Why?,do you know your business and ask why?
Do you advertise because of friendship? No? To reach the people ? Yes, yes, that is the reason and it can only be accomplished by advertising in the paper that has the largest circulation. But if they all have the largest ofrculation, I myst advertise in all the pa- pars ? Quite so, if you think..
