One of the many advantages of advertising in a Metropolitan paper is the constant scrutiny afforded to the Advertiser. With country journals, however, who, as a rule, by-the-bye, depend in a great measure upon the support of tradesmen for a considerable amount of their revenue, the Auckland advertiser has no such check. He sees a copy of the paper in which he has inserted an advertisement, perhaps, once a year, and is . thus left entirely at the mercy of the advertising clerk the only certainty about the affair being the regular presentation from timo to time of the "little account'" Of course, mistakes will happen with the best regulated newspapers, and we are only referring generally to a matter of some importance to the commercial community. Under these circumstances, the free readingrooms at the " Associated News and Advertising Bureau," Stichbury's Buildings, is worthy of passing notice. The Association, by the energy and enterprise of its Manager, Mr. Bartleet Langbridge, is regularly supplied with every paper of repute published in this and the neighbouring Colonies, and a large number of Califomian, American and European journals. These papers are on file and free to all corners. Mr. Langbridge, who has had long journalistic experience, acts as the medium between advertiser and publisher of papers issued outside of Auckland, and registers every advertisement (forwarded by the " Bureau") in order to ascertain whether all the conditions have been complied with as to term, number of insertions, space, display, and position in the paper. The Manager also supplies carefully prepared lists of leading papers, with valuable information as to circulation, scale of charges, circuit, &c., so as to enable advertisers to select without difficulty the medium best suited. to any particular purpose.
