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? 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 dont 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, I must advertise in all the pa- pers? Quite so, If you think

Public Works Department The suggestion has been mado from time to time" in "relmutting accusations of oarelessstens or dolny that the Department, 80 far from being extravagantly con- ducted, is in point of fact actually under-officered, but oan this be seriously maintained ? We are told that there are private firma in the Colony-two or three at least who in the course of a year probably carry out" works." equalling, if not exceeding in im- portance those undertaken by the Pablic Works Department. A glance at the loont directory shown that these firms conduct their business with a staff of from four to five qualified civil enginepra or architects; by whom as in the case of the Public Works Depart ment-many miscellaneous duties are performed in the way of sur veye, valuations, arbitrations, etc.; in addition to the actual preparation of plans and supervi- ion of works. On the other band, the Public Works Depart ment is officered-again wo take our figures from the loost directory.

by thirty! These comparisons are startling, and it is desirable that some explanation-If explan- stion be possible-should be given concerning them. It is not necessary, nor would it be goner- ous, to jump to any "chaalusion that a fair proportion of the. officers of the Department are sther than well qualifi!, hard- working, and conscentions; bat

systom under which the publis pparently paya nearly 20 por sont, commission upon the valus. of the works carried out on its ba- aif must be in some respects in- herently defective."

But, as we have pointed out, until China hastens on towards the realisation of a strong Govern ment by which the Provinces will be kept well in band, it is folly to talk of a united China. The Provinces must be completely subservient to a Government, tho roughly representative of the coun- try, and until that is realised the Republic is not an accompl ished faol and its general re- cognition cannot be expected.
