PROFITABLE PUBLICITY.
' Bargain Advertising,
By NaruTt C. Fowxer, Jr, of New
York, Doctor of Publicity.
"
There must be bargains.
People expect them.
People will have them.
The real bargain is legitimate.
~gain advertising pays.
Bargain advertising is simply anoth-
er form of specialty advertising,
It has all the advantages ot oone-
thing-at-a-time.�
When you advertise a bargain, be
sure it is a bargain.
Bargain advertising wust be honest.
The bargain advertisemeat must oc-
cupy large space.
The price must be given.
Do not be afraid of the largest type,
the largest space and the oldest of true
statements. ,
DonTt advertise the same bargain,the
same way, twice.
DonTt tell so much about the bar-
gain in your advertisement that peo-
ple will have no curiosity to look at it.
Bargain advertisements should have
one very large head line, and some"
times one is enough.
Set the price in the largest type.
If you only give one figure, and that
js an even number of dollars, there is
ho necessity of filling up space with
ciphers.
Hand bills may pay, but not one-
tenth as well as the large bold adver-
tisement in the local newspaper.
Not because the publisher says it,
not because I say it, but because expe_
rience proves it : oNewspaper advertis
1ag is the only indispensible form of
local publicity, and the only kind that
is liable to pay uinety"nine times out
of a hundred.�

~A SHORTER S2HEDULE,
The Rauroad Authorities Should
Give it to Us.
d ieee emeall
The Rer.ecTox does not profess to
know how to run a railroad, but that
does not debar us fiom making sug-
gestions now and then. Of course rail.
goad futhorities usually conduct their
yoads to suit themselves, but es their |,
business is with the traveling and ship
ping public, it does look like it would}
be their desire, and make them more
friends, to operate their roads 1p a way
that will accomimodate and benefit the
Jargest number of peuple.
Some months ago the RerLector
pent a petition, signed by nearly all of
the business. men of Greenville, .o the
authorities of the Atlatitic Coast Line
asking them to put ona morning train
from Parmele to Kinston, or if this
should bo# impracticable to shorten the
sehedule of the present mail and pas"
senger train go that our people could
get their.mail earlier. in the evening.
The anthorities replied to this, saying
in substance that the first request in che
petition wus impravticable, as the pat~
Tonage would not Justity the expenese
incurred in operating the morning
train asked tor. As to the second re-
quest they suid they could »vt shorien
the schedule of the present train with
out breaking conhections that were of
considerable importance to business ju-
terests along this portion of the line.
Last week the writer had occasion to
ge off for a few days, and along th
trip made it a point to closely observe
the schedules aud connections of the
train:, and make some suggestions ac-
cordingly.
First, we noticed that the schedule
time between Kinston and Weldon, a
distance of 95 miles, is exactly tour
hours, which is pretty slow running
time for a well equipped road. Even
on this schedule our train reaches Wel
don at 11:20 oTclock, just 40 minutes
ahead of the arrival of any other train
With which it has to conneet. Thus itis
geen that by faving a little faster run"
Din; time aua, not making this train
reach Weidon so far ahead of other
trains, the svhedule going north could
easily be shortened an hour ard the
train allowed to leave KinstonT that
much later in the morning without
breaking any connection. Nove as we
go along that the Washmgtou and Ply-
mouth branches. occupy about the
game position, and what applies to this
~branch can apply to them also.
Then again, in the afternoon our
train isheld at Weldon until 4:10
eTclock, 30 mintites after all other
trains have departed, while if. our train
was a'lowed to leave Weldon soon after
the arrival of the Seaboard train trom
the suu.h at 3 o'clock, and connect at
Halifax with the north ound Coast
Line train, there Would be another con-
- siderable saving in time. i
ut the railroad people may argue
that the most important connection for
mr evening train is with the Norfolk
ina oShoo Fly� which passes
abyut 5:40. Well, let ous

This is of benefit principally to the
people along the section of that road
nearest to Nortolk who wish to go the
ety shopping. It weuld be practically
little or no inconvenience to those peo-
ple if their stay in Norfolk was shortencd
only one fo.r, and the tran: allowed
to leave aud reach Hobgood an hour
eat lier, connecting there with our train.
This would permit our train to come on
much earlier and the change would
prove a vast bénefit and convenience to
the people of Kinston, Gritton, Ayden,
Greenville, Washington, Piymoutu,
Williamston, Scotland Neck and inter
mediate stations, )
| Upon the whole the RerLecror be-
lieves that the Coast Line authorities
~could, by making better running time
witn the Weldon"Kinston train and
adopting the sagyesfions herein relative
to leaving time at Weldon and Norfolk,
shorten the schedule on this road at
least one hour each way "that is leave
Kinston an hour later in the morning
and return an hour sooner in the even"
ing"and at the same time rot inter-
tere in the slightest with any other
connections this train has to make.
The people would appreciate such a
change.
