GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE.

Advertising 



Costs money, but we can't do business without it. 

 It is a comfort, though, to know thati the better the 

 advertising the greater the business. For years I 

 liave made of advertising a study, and, since publish- 

 ing the Keview, I liave put thousands of ads. into 

 type, and have thus had an opportunity to study the effect of different combinations of type in display- 

 ing advertisements. If an advertisement is sent to the Review I will do my best to set it up in an effec- 

 tive manner. If desired, I will also compose the advertisement, the advertiser sending me his catalog, or, 

 if he has none, giving me the strong points to be made in favor of his business. I also offer my services 

 to those wlio do not advertise in the Review. I have a good assortment of type, borders, ornaments, etc., 

 and shall be glad to submit proof of my efforts in composing and displaying advertisements. Send me 

 your circular, and I will send proof of an ad., and put a price upon the work if it should be accepted. As 

 a specimen of my work in this line, see the ad. of W. W. Gary, in this issue of Gleanings.
