Do you spend as much time and thought in trying to sell your merchandise as you do in buying? No matter how keen you are as a buyer, your success depends on selling. In buying you carefully consider QUALITY, PRICE and SALABILITY so as to have a quick and large turn- over. If you then leave the goods on your shelves without telling the people about them, the profits from shrewd buying are materially reduced. To sell them you have to tell them. , Advertising is as essential to successful merchandis- ing as all other expenditures. Have you an advertising appropriation based on your volume of business and are you spending it as judiciously and selecting your advertising medium with the same care as you do in buying merchandise? Wool makes a suit and so does cotton, but you wouldn’t pay as much fora cotton suit as you would for one of wool. No doubt you would rather have one wool suit to a num- ber of cotton suits. 8. Ink on newsprint does not make a newspaper; neither does it mean results to the advertiser any more than cot- ton makes a good suit. It takes REAL, BONA FIDE, PAID CIRCULATION (being the “all-wool” of a news- paper) to bring you results. The net paid circulation of the Tribune is now over 10,000. We are members of the Audit Bureau of Circu- lations which means we must comply strictly with their by-laws and regulations and have our books audited by them regularly. Whatever we tell about our circulation must be the TRUTH and substantiated by the exact rec- ords we keep. We urgently request every merchant to examine our records—let us show you our record of every paid subscriber, when he paid and if he is paid up to date. Any subscriber in arrears over six months cannot be counted as a NET PAID subscriber and is not included in their audit. of | | x: It is and should be just as much the right of every ad- vertiser to know the TRUE facts about the paid circula- tion of a newspaper as it is to see and feel the quality of the merchandise they are buying. THE ADVERTISING RATE OF THE TRIBUNE IS LOWER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER NEWS- PAPER IN THE STATE, BASED ON NET PAID CIRCULATION. Spend Your Money for Advertising Judiciously
