Is Your Business
Running
On All Cylinders ?
Is it running smoothly, without a hitch, or does it miss
frequently? If it is "missing" frequently, you had better look
it over or you will soon have a dead business on your hands.
If your business is capitalized at a certain amount you
will naturally expect a fair proportion of profits, or, in engine
parlance, if you have a sixty horsepower capital you will expect
a thirty horse-power profit, at least. If it falls below that mark
then it is missing a cylinder or two and requires attention.
Ten chances to one it needs lubrication. As an engine
requires oil, so business requires lubricating, and the best lubri
cation is ADVERTISING. It works into the stiffly-running parts
and sets the engine of business running freely again.
Again, as in the selection of engine oil, one must te careful
in selecting the medium of advertising. There are many kinds
but the one surest way, and the one that will give pleasing re
sults is through the medium of a newspaper that reaches the
cream of the buying public, through the mails.
THE NEWS has helped to lubricate the cylinders of sever
al thriving Palatka mercantile businesses. It can help yours.
