Science of advertising.
Advertising is both a science and an art. We
have studied 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!
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
ofroniation, must advertise

Hongkong Gaol.
Is Viotoria Gaol overcrowded P Are prisoners being liberated be- foro their sentances have expired? We have been asked those ques tions several timos during the past couple of months. On the other hand, we have been told of |complaints of a considerable number of men, arrested with n view to banishmont, being de- tained at the gnol week after week poading an investigation into their antecedents. The two stories have susmed to us scarcely reconcilable, but a little. incident occurred in the Second Magistrate's Court on Thursday last, which, auggests that some justification exists for asking the question whether the gaol scoom- modation is adequate to what appears to be the growing neede of the Colony. We learn from spootator who was in Court that an old criminal came before Mr. Melbourne on a somewhat serious charge. After the evidence in the case was heard, the man's pre":" vious record was put in. Ite showed a long list of convictions,* the last on the list being one of house-breaking, for which he was sentenced to six months' impri sonment some time in May. Yet he was before the Court again on another charge on August 16. The Magistrato, wo are informed, noticed and queried thi i rooord, thinking that the prison or must have been discharged in May, but Mr. T. H. King, the assistant Superintendent of Polico, was un ierstood to give his Worship the assurance that the prisoner entored upon his sentence in May.. Thon, as Mr. Melbourne wanted. further information, the Assistant Superintendent of Police said he could explain, but instead of ex plaining so that those in Court. might hear, ho passed over to the Magistrato and whispered LA.
