little story.
T IJ JS 18 A FORD nt'X,IBOl:,),
Some one asked, th e other day, " H ow do you ever manage to get so many ad s. in such dull times ?"
That reminds me of a little story. You have all read about the bad boy , and the teacher who had ju st ri sen from th e uptu rn ed tack in hi s chai r: -" I only meant it as a joke I " say s the tearful you th; - " I fail ed to see th e point!" shou ts the wielder' of th e rod .
TIw up-to-date business man, when dull times come on, SEES THE POINT , H e ad vertises BE CAU S f;~ times are dull , so th at soon they may be no longer dull.
" How do you do i t~" Th e Advert ising Man is going to tell you. Li sten
(Place-Otnce of Purcha sin g Agent of Th e -------- Company . Enter Ad. Man.)
"Ready for that ad . in th e W orcester lYIagazine to-day, Mr. Agent j '
"The Worcester Magazine'? Oh, yes , I see ; very fine thing, of course , but too local for us; we sell all over th e world, you know."
"Excnse me, fri end; but do you know wher e our Magazine goes ~ Every Board of Trade and similar business organization in the country and ill Can ada; the mayors of our ci ties ; and at a good deal of exp ense , th e United States consu ls in foreign countries- all these ge t the Worcester Magazine twel ve times a yAar."
" Oh ! I didn 't know that! " " Of course not, or you would not have thought
us a local affair mer ely. Then we have a new way of increasing our circula tion and boom ing W orcester.' ,
"How' s that? " "vVe get art icles from leading manufacturers,
describing something of general interest to om readers; som etimes we write it up ourse lves , as it
looks to us; sometimes th ey g ive us th e story. Then the manufacturer gets photos and cuts- no better co mme rcia l photographers or engravers in the country than we have here-then we print th e ar ticle in th e very finest way that an up-to-date printing establishment can devise. Th en we furnish t o th e manufacturer, at a reasonable price, from 500 to 2000 copies. "
" Does he have to bother to mail all those!" " Bless you , no; what do you suppose we keep
Alphonso, our office boy, for 'l Vie send you th e envelopes-you address th em-we put in th e magazines and stick th e stamps- Unc le Sam does th e rest. How's th at for a scheme!"
" I can ge t th e same thing with a circula r . " , , Just the samet We give you the backing of
th e Magazine, in whi ch your cus tome rs will all be interested ; and you, as a Worcester business man, help us in crease its circulation , help the Board of Trade, help your fellow manufacturers, and help make W orceste r better known in th e world. MADE IN WORCESTER goes on all ads.-see'l You know where some circulars ge t before th ey are very old- I see some now down under your desk . "Would you throw a magazine like this into the waste baskett
" ' Vell , no- it' s too good-looking. I hav en't seen a copy lately-thought it was smalle r . "
"It used to be; but we had to enl arge it so as to giv e our ad vertisers a fair sho w. Any fault to find with th ose cutst "
" Not a bit-they're all right. Er-what do you get for your space'I "
Of cou rse you know th e rest of th e story. A good contract with " The ---- Company" for the balance of the year.
See yon later.

Responsible Fire Insurance Is an important facto r in establishing th e credit of th e manufacturer and m erchant.
When all yo ur money is invested in yo ur busin ess, large or sma ll, INSURANCE is the main reliance to start that business aga in after th e fire.
Do not make the mistake of thinkin g that all fire insurance compani es are equally strong.
For sixty-five years we have insured th e largest manufacturing properties in the country, and have paid throu gh our office more than TWO MILLION D OLLARS in losses.
Consider th e value to yon of policies in the largest and best compani es doin g busin ess in America back ed by our sixty-five years of successful representation.

Commercial Photography
The important relation of Photography to industrial and commercial enterprises is keenly realized by business men.
So important are the manufacturing interests of this city that we have, with much careful thought and expense, equipped a special department for the prompt execution of Commercial Photography.
:\'II'. M. N. Conger, formerly with the WoodburyCarlton Co" has associated himself with us and has charge of this important department. He has made Commercial Photography a specialty and is very successful in securing the most effecfi"e views of manufacturing plants, machinery and products. In conjunction with the unequalled photographic facilities of the Scher vee & Bushong establishment, you will appreciate the superior service we are able to give you.
Our first-class equipment insures promptness, which will be appreciated by business men who must have their work on time.

SLOW AND EXPENSIVE
HAND LABELING
is fast becoming a thing of the past wherever bottling is done, because more labeling, neater labeling and cheaper labeling result from the use of our
WORLD LABELER
This machine automatically labels glass jars and bottles of all sizes and shapes, with any shaped label desired, and is the only machine capable of placing TWo or More labels on the same package At One Operation.
One owner says his World Labeler labels 16,000 bottles a day, with a body and a neck label; and another that his does the work formerly done by four men.
