If you v ant to do business you must lat the people know it. Summing advertisements, when frequently changed, are better and cheaper than reading notices. They took moro substantial and business-like, and inspire confidence. I would as soon think of do» ing business without a clerk as without advertising.” This is advice which all business men would do well to follow, but it must be borne in mind that the advertising medium must be the best obtainable. We san confidently say that in consequence of its large circulation, Tsk Kawhia Settler is one of the best papers vo advertise in.
