The consumer does not pay for the advertising;

ways reduce the manufacturing cost, and conse-

ploits.
The manufacturer does not pay for the advertis-
ing; for, as it enhances his volume, it reduces his
cost of production and distribution in ratio.
Then who does pay for the advertising?
Easy! No one.
It is paid for out of the savings effected by the

FEBRUARY BULLETIN
OF REPUBLIC ROLLS
FIRE DAMAGES STORE OF
CARLIN MUSIC COMPANY
No Injury from Fire or Water to Goods in Sales
Rooms Reported.
Damage estimated at $10,000 was caused by a
fire that started in the storage room of the Carlin
Music Company, 33 North Pennsylvania street, In-
dianapolis, Ind., Jan. 6. The flames broke through
the windows on the second floor of the two-story
brick building and only effective work of the fire-
men prevented destruction of the building.
The loss is entirely covered by insurance. An of-
ficial of the company said most of the loss was in
musical instruments and phonographs stored on the
second floor near the repair room. Defective wir-
ing is said to have caused the fire. A fire in June,
1917, caused heavy damage in the same part of the
building.
The music company's business will not be inter-
fered with in the least, as the fire and water did not
reach the salesroom. Frank J. Carlin and William
Carlin are the members of the Carlin music firm,
while the building is owned by C. F. Sayres & Com-
pany. Since the year 1920 was rung in th'ere have
been 157 fires in Indianapolis. This total included
the Carlin fire.

music. Her three initial offerings all possess ex-
ceeding merit. The bulletin features several good
