A nun may say lie doe> not believe
in advertising but he gets mighty tus

he does not like.
And while we are talking about ad
vertising. which means any kind o!
good printer's ink put on good papei.

Print*’ >* ink is tiu* best of all a*l
v**rti>ing mediums, whether in circu

There a merchants in all Alaska
tow ns who believe they have done
something big when they subscribe tv»
the paper, a necessity, to keep up on
the doing' oi* the world, but do not
h( I pout on the ; dvertising end. some
thing that th* y si’.on d a *o have a

,:ci know that circulation just takes
tare et* t.n.r * n»i of th*1 business, hut
t»'«' advertising is what pays the sai
a *•'. tlie rent, the power and lighting,
insurance . etc. Circulation pays for
the keeping of the clerks engaged in
the circulation department, the ear
ner' and perhaps the paper used fo •
tiu* regular editions. Put it is the ad
Veilis'iig that pays tor everything
else.
l ately the Gateway has been taking
the full day and night Alaska report
of the Associated Press. The weekly
cable toll of the Gateway is perhaps
larger than tiu* weekly salary of anv
one man in Seward.

Better think it over, it benefits both
ways.
Unionism seems to be going a lit
tle too strong, apparently, in view of
recent events. The vailroud employees,
under the administration, wants the
government to own all railroads, then
pay tin* employees big wages and give
them certain percent of the earnings.
Today the United .Mine workers, ac
cording to the dispatches in the (»at«'
\vay. want the mines to be nationalis
ed. which means for the government
purchase of them, then pay big wages
and if there is anything over, they to
g»*t the leavings, also. What is union
ism coining to? Have not tin* common
people anything to say about what
shall he done?

RAINIER SPECIAL. Such a test should ban- «
ish all uncertainty of superiority and mark for {

ing a test of this nature it w’ould be manifestly I
unfair to point out a single one of the favorable I
qualities of our own product. Our contention f
is that it should be accorded no advantage <
whatsoever. Our plea is to let each cereal (
beverage make its own uninfluenced appeal for \
your faver. Such a test is fair. If the result (
of such a test indicates that RAINIER SPE- (
CIAL is the superior of all other cereal bever- |
ages, we feel that in fairness to yourself you ,
should always call for it. If the result of the (
test is unfavorable to RAINIER SPECIAL you (
will know it is a cereal beverage to avoid. For
the sake of being informed you should make
the comparisons we advocate. Today is a
good day to do it. Practically every grocery,
drug store, fountain and soft drink parlor car
ries RAINIER SPECIAL and several other
brands of cereal beverage.
