Elliott, the enterprising Advertising Agent of No. 62 West Broadway, New York City, thinks of LIFE. Pusuisuers Lire, New York, July 31, 1899. 19 West gist St., N. Y. GENTLE For years I have been a reader of Lire. For years I have noticed that I have never seen a copy of Lire in the hands of any but educated and refined people, not necessarily rich, but just bright-minded pedple, who love flashes of wit and beauty of illustration. If I had seen a few of these kind of people reading Lire, I would call it a fair advertising medium, but I have seen so many that I concluded it must bea desirable place to put announcements of publicity to a desirable purchasing class of people. This observation led me to recommend Lire to my customers. Those who have followed my advice in its selection are very well satisfied with the results, Wishing you a continuation of your present success, I remain, Yours very truly, Mr. Elliott is the well-known proprietor of The American Druggist, and also conducts a general advertising business, his customers being largely drawn from the wholesale drug trade and the manu- facturers of food products. Lire is always pleased to see Mr. Elliott's characteristic autograph, as printed herewith, ADVERTISING RATES ON APPLICATION. LIFE PUBLISHING COMPANY, NEW YORK. Ccomicbooks.com
