THE
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? Wo 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.
1
ᎥᏝ
All the papers have the largest circulation, 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
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 circulation, must advertise in all the pa- pers ? Quite so, If you think.

The question to be immediately. settled now is whether our govern- ment will undertake the task which is boyand the power at least of the Chinese government and thereby teach thess clusive W gangs that British territory is not to be easily exploited, nor British subjects kidnapped. No one realised the dangers to whics the Europeans and Chinese in Cheungohow were exposed antil this daring attack was made on the island during the night. Possibly few, if any, gans or re- volvers would have been available to stay the hands of the cowardly
ruffians who are callons to all danger. The efficient patrol of these islands, it is probable, will now have to be considered, for

Lloyd's and the Titanic. The insurance market has come through the Titanic disaster as croditably as the fire offices came through the San Francisco earth- quake. Specie claims on tho Occans had been met within a week of the wreck--a drain heavy. enough to deplete the resources of any but a very rich group of men, and within a week or two of the sinking of the Titanio all the cheques on the hull had been, handed over and the enormous loss paid in full. After this claim the other claims, such as diamond
losses, which had to be assoseed by surveyors, were paid and by this time practically all the claime have been proved and met. How large they were can be judged from the fact that the precious stones sont in the Titanio from. Antwerp alone amounted to litt) less than 850,000.
