F, GABITES, VICTORIA STREET. 3421 I DO NOT ASK YOU TO RELY UPON _MY WORD ONLY. THE PROOF OF THE PUDDING IS IN THE EATING. OH I THE STUBBORN REALITY .OF FACTS! RE A D TH I S I j BARNUM ON ADVERTISING. I freely confess that what success I have had in my life may fairly be attributed more to the public Press than to nearly all other causes combined. There may possibly be occupations that do not require advertising, but I cannot well conceive what they are. Men in business will sometimes tell you that they have tried advertising, and that it did not pay. This is only when advertising is done sparingly and grudgingly. Homoeopathic doses of advertising will not pay, perhaps—they are like a halfdose of physic, making the patient sick, but effecting nothing. Administer liberally, and the cure will be sure and permanent. Some say, " They cannot afford to advertise;" they mistake—they cannot afford not to advertise. In this country, where everybody reads the newspapers, the man must have a thick skull who does not see that these are the cheapest and best mediums through which,he can speak to the public, where he find his customers. Put on the appearance .of business, and generally the reality will follow. The farmer plants his seed, and while he is sleeping his corn and potatoes are growing.. So with advertising. While you are sleeping or eating, or conversing with one set of customers, your advertisement is being read by hundreds and thousands of persons who never saw you, nor heard of your business, and never would, had it not been for your advertisement appearing in the newspapers. People express astonishment at the rapidity with which great advertisers acquire fortunes, not reflecting that the same path is open to all who dare pursue it. But it needs nerve and faith. The former to enable you to launch out thousands on *he uncertain waters of the future; the latter, to teach you that after many days it shall surely return, bringing an hundred or a thousand-fold to him who appreciates the advantages of "printer's ink," properly applied. The question then arises—How to apply it! Caixon— E. NORTON TAYLOR, AT FISHER'S BUILDING HEREFORD STREET, Opposite Bank of New Zealand; Or, Ring up Telephone No. 335, and you will be skilfully piloted clear of the shoals of useless mediums, and guided to a haven of success by E. NORTON TAYLOR, Whose long experience enables him to point out the best means for judicious advertising. _____meric__n, Australasian, a_s__ .New Zealand .Newspaper Advertising Agency.
