REMEMBER ! REMEMBER! E. V. Jordan’s BIG DISCOUNT m Is Still On. REMEMBER!. REMEMBER! '*>>>>>>>>!>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> THE * * THE advertiser's best friend is the medium through • which he obtains the biggest returns for his money. J One medium which i« used by advertisers to a great » a extent is the circular ojt booklet The circular or £ * booklet is always ineffective, unless it is v.-rv handsome— • £ handsome enough to attract the eye of the man to whom it v a is sent, no matter how busy he may be. A booklet hand- Z * e enough to do this almost always costs from three to ;■ a four rents apiece. There Is the nailing to count in (two 2 * cents a copy, of course); there ;s the tr üble in getting a list Z * of names, and in addressing. Altogether th-> cost will figure w a up to about seven cents a copy for a good booklet Two 2 A thousand circulation in a booklet is very large Two thou- v * sand circulation at seven cent* is $l4O. I propose to show 4* a that you can invest $l4O in newspaper space and get retum| S * five fold of what you would get through a booklet. w A J | Newspaper Space Is Valuable I * w J In the fi-«t place th> -. . For $l4O y*»u can get w a a good sixid apace in a newspaper of good circulation for 2 a ■ ' a long time. You know foar nawpapei rat-s: you can w £ figure it ont to suit y MU* own instance mil h b.-tter than I • a ‘an. So much for cost I Now for Effectiveness : *o * You must tell your customers how mi. h your good- are w J going to cost. An advertisement without a price is like meat 2 a without salt—it will do yon n< good How can you put « 2 prices in a booklet when you are doing a strictly retail busi- w A ness? You have competitors; you have to change your JJ A prices constantly to meet theirs, and to meet other ►•*!- v Jf geacies. The first change of a price will kill the effective w a ness of a booklet, and where are yon? Your advertisement Mi in a newspaper may be changed as many times as you de- •» 2 sire. You are constantly up-to-date. w s The Newspaper Is Effective ; M J M Any kind of a newspaper has mure circulation than vou w J obtain through a booklet for 1140. Newspapers rea h * A. the heart of the home. Every one reads them and they are J 2 far more certain to obtain close attention than any printed w a matter which you would send. If you sent printed matter * a of your own accord to persons who do not know vou. vou * J would be putting yourself face to face with them without a v A guarantee. They have nothing to judge the quality of your J a goods by, and (hey <an only take what yw lap on our own w •* paper and in your own way. Anybody can sav as much aa w a they please. w ai When your matter appears in a newspaper of go'-d circu- « 2 lation and good standing the newspaper is a guarantee for w a what you say. Newspapers are always particular as to whom J 2 their advertisers are. (I speak of good newspapers always • v A Your ads will gain a value besides their inherent one. They * A will be vouched for, and this Is not to be despised You Z j have a certain fluctuating trade, which is always vaiuahb w jj and which needs s me sort of an introdu* tlr.n to your store. w This introduction the newspaper gives you. Z Good Paper Adds Dignity ; V You are la X?a by the company you keep, yuu know, w and if your ads appear in a paper which holds itself up b< v fore the masse* as a leader you will be known as a patron * of what is good, and you will obtain trade fr m those whom w it is worth trading with. JJ On all scores I consider newspaper advertising by far Z the best. On the score of cheapness; on the score of being w able to constantly change your announcements; on the score J of direct and immediate returns; and on the score of being « introduced to people, to strangers, as a store which can af w ford to announce its news to every one In a dignified and J straightforward manner, and this is the manner which bring* trade that pays. w FRANKLIN BURNHAM.
