Think of the swarming, jostling crowd, the stamping of feet on your porch and carpets. Every week we know of many callers who come to see you. They never jangle the bell -they don't take up all of your time trying to get your, attention. Instead, they do it in a way that is most considerate of your privacy and your convenience. They advertise in your newspapers.

In this way you have only to listen to tose you know, at a glance that something that interests you. They make it short, too, so you can gather quickly just what you want to know. You can receive and hear them all without noise or confusion in comparatively few minutes. In fairness to yourself look over all the advertisements. The smallest and the largest you never can be sure which one will i tell something you really want to know.
