districts against advertis ing circulars being distri buted in corridors and on verandahs until they become a nuisance in deed so much of a nuisance that they are never looked at very quickly they are collected and consigned to the incinerator if an advertiser wants to reach the public the first thing he must consider is the medium and that medium must have reader interest how many read circulars how many of the homes in which the herald enters reads this newspaper every member of the family they read every page and all that is on every page consequently the advertisements cannot escape then attention without reader interest any advertising medium has comparatively little value theres a reason why you instinctively turn to the merchant who advertises when you want depend able merchandise at reasonable prices advertising builds his sales increases his busi ness the lower margin of profit on each sale is pass ed on to you when you see a local storekeeper s ad in your home town paper you can be sure he has considered the buyer s interest as well as his own the georgetown herald phone no 8 soap 2 a 15 dvn gelatine j l n 19c choice aylmar tomatoes no ti tin 10c down oi corona fruit jars
