Big kernels in small
shells
In Addition to the advertisements of the big de-
partment stores, of the grocery and hardware stores,
of the millinery, clothing and shoe stores, there is an-
other kind of advertising that is being read more and
more by readers of this newspaper. That kind of ad-
vertising is the Classfied Columns.
A man or woman wants a job. They read the “Help
Wanted” columns and probably insert an advertise-
ment of their own under “Positions W7anted.” Em-
ployer and job seeker soon get together to the benefit
of both. A man may want an automobile—possibly
he cannot afford a new car, so he looks in the “Used
Car" columns and finds just the car at the price he can
afford to pay. Some one has lost a pocketbook, valu-
able papers or even a pet dog. The “Lost and Found”
columns soon bring loser and finder together.
i he Classified Columns are so arranged that any
one can readily find what he seeks quickly—business
news, machinery and tools, household goods, horses,
dogs, cats, canaries, etc. They enable you to locate
what you are looking for in short order. So in read-
ing advertising do not overlook the classified columns
—the individual advertisements do not take up much
room, but like the meaty nut they may contain a big
kernel in a small shell—just for you.
Read the advertisements for
your own good . „. classified columns as well as
display advertisements
