The benefit derived from an adver- tisement depends altogether upon the number of persons who react it. To reach the greatest number of readers at the least possible expense, is a question that should he considered very carefully by business .nen. .A. thousand small bills printed. in Tor- onto or London, and distributed in this section, would be just •as effective the I' had as if bill ha.1 eon print,s1 in town. There is not a doubt about that, but if you want to reach the people in their homes, newspaper advertising is the only successful way. To get the best results use the paper with the largest circulation, and thegreatest amount of local news. Circulation is the proper basis upon which prices should be fixed. If a newspaper with a. circulation of 2,000 charges $100 per year, then one with acircnlationof000 would be entitl- ed to $30. An advertiser should take these facts into careful consideration, when making contracts. Another fre- quent loss to advertisers is inn the use of several papers,when one covers theground. 'TIE TINES is read by more people in Exeter, Usborne, .Stephen, Hay, the northern part of Biddulph and McGillivray than all other county paupers combined, and an advertise- ment placed in it trial be found the Troost effectual way in which to reach the people.
