Ii he can influence more than one customer, and it would he poor local newspaper advertising indeed thai could not do that, he would he accomplish ing far more than the mail order houses with their highly paid sell ing experts. And. its a business man, he could congratulate himself 011 a good Investment. He could say to himself that lie had in his advertisement the cheapest sales man on his force. It is, of course, not always pos sible to readily get this sliom;, convincing selling matter in your newspaper space. You may not lie able yourself 10 write it and .?t?n may not. have any local person to whom you can turn. Hut that need not deter you. There are now on the .market one or two syndicat ed advertising services that are de signed especially to suit cases like yours. These services are supplied in a series of fifty-two advertised mollis with accompanying copper plate engravings, one for each week m the year, in prices ranging from one dollar per week up. Many of the advertisements have been class ed bv authorities as equal to the hesi ihiit have made successes for tin- big city department stores and national advertisers. Ked'iced fac similes of several of the?,e adver tisements will be seen at the lop of t his column. The advertisements shown above base received many testimonials from experts For instaice. Win.
