Newspaper Advertising Is No
Expense.
It id a fact, admitted by all who
liavo used it intelligently and erisis
tcntl), and denied by none wiio have
watched its reetiitt, that newspaper
advertising is no expense to tho mer
chant, lie may pay out $100 a year
or more for it, but if he watches its
workings lie never regrets it.
It p-tv'd its own expenses, and
helps to pay outers, even if never
changed, and when attended to
properly there is no estimating the
amotinc of business it either holds or
makes for the one using it.
Then newspaper advertising builds
up a town. Let a dozen live mer
chants advertise iu a business-like
mnuner, and many people who now
purchase where most convenient,
will nave their curiosity aroused by
reading and hearing about what the
merchants of INymouth were offer
ing, and would come here to trade,
which means that the hotel, school,
banking, mercantile, aud all other
branches of business would be great
ly benefitted ; the benelit even
reaching those who are too grasping
to make trade for themselves.
JS'o; newspaper advertising cosfp
you nothing. Without it you will
sell hundreds of dollurs worth less.
With it you will sell hundreds of
doll its worth more, it pays its own
expenses, and helps you to pay yours.
Don't Worry.
This is easier said than done, yet
it may be of some help to consider
the .matter. if the cause is some
thing over rfhich 3 pu have no con
trol it is obvious that worrying will
not help the matter in the least. On
the other hand, if within your con
trol you have only to act. When ou
have a cold ami fear an attack of
pneumonia, buy a bottle of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy and use it
judiciously aud all cause for worry as
to tho outcome will quickly disap
