RICHARD RAINES COMPANY Makers of the Raines Welding Plant, The Raines Pressure Generator


Mr. Raines has used practically every welding plant offered on the market and found them so unsatisfactory that in order to do efficient work he had to build his own plant and patent improvements that are of first importance. Our Generators are built without clock work. No float valve, no inside gasometer, just two brass valves working as one, controls gas pressure absolutely automatically.

THE TEXAS LAND COLONY COMPANY


We BUY and SELL Real Estate, Exchange City Property for Farms, Locate Colonies and New Town Sites. We Collect Rents and do a General Real Estate Business.


THE CUSTOM OF GETTING THE OWNER TO MAKE A LOW PRICE, AND THEN ADDING FROM $100.00 TO $1,000.00 TO THE PRICE, NEVER APPEALED TO US; and we are sure the . stranger coming to Texas prefers to buy direct from the owner, who is not bound up to let the sales- man make the price. We sell real estate just as a salesman would sell a car load of merchandise. The price is fixed as low as the owner can afford. but if he chooses to take less, no contract with us would prevent it. Experience has convinced us of the success of our method. We have received hundreds of letters saying, "Send us a buyer, and if he offers anything like a living price, we will sell and pay you small commission." We operate all over Texas and keep an information Bureau for Home Seekers. Send for our catalogue of splendid opportunities.

Stability AND Permanency


Do you realize that a City Directory advertisement is a testimonial to the per- manency, the stability, of the advertiser?


That's the sort of concern all of us want to patronize, because we know when they sell us merchandise they are behind it in every way, today, tomorrow, and for the years to come.


"Fly-by-night," "fire-sale" and other temporary or "get-rich-quick" concerns rarely appear in the City Direc- tory.


And it is a noteworthy fact that the concerns which advertise one year in the city directory are there again next year. 90% of directory advertising is renewed.


Directory advertising, is profitable. In connection with the class- ified business headings it is doubly effective.


May we explain how and why it will pay you?

CAUTION


Deal only with well-known publishers when giving orders for Directory ad- vertising.


READ ALL ORDERS CAREFULLY BEFORE SIGNING, and do not sign duplicate "vouchers," as they are in- variably used fraudulently.


PAY NO MONEY IN ADVANCE. All well-known publishers instruct their men to collect nothing prior to publi- cation, and any attempt to collect needs immediate investigation.

Detroit Dire.tory Library-Every Directory Office is a Branch


HOW DIRECTORY LIBRARIES ARE USED


He Wanted to Buy a Home


"Who sells ready-cut houses?" said a man to us the other day. "There is nobody listed under that heading in the Detroit City Directory, but I know there is some concern out in the State which sells them."


Reference to the Michigan State Gazet- teer (State Business Directory) soon told him that the concern he wished was the North American Construction Company, of Bay City, Mich. "I will write and order what I want at once." was his parting remark.


Where one instance of this sort comes to our attention, the same things are happen- ing over and over again wherever a City Directory is to be found.


If you will trace back new customers to find out how they found you, City Direct- ory classified lists will receive their share of the credit.


A $50,000.00 Order


A traveling man from St. Louis called on a wholesale dry goods house in St. Paul, to sell salvage goods. They did not deal in that class of goods.


Later the firm dissolved. One partner decided to engage in that line of trade and wanted to buy a complete stock, amounting to about $50,000.00.


He called at our office and examined the St. Louis Directory to find the name of the house the agent represented. The class- ification "Salvage Goods" did not show it.


We, being more familiar with the class- ifications in a Directory, found it under "Bankrupt Stocks," much to the delight of the jobber, and a tremendous order was placed with the salvage house.


The classified section of the City Directory is the greatest buyers' guide on earth. Any one classification may secure the largest order and the best customer, any or every day in the year, and its omission may lose a large order at any time.


Every day, all over the country, thousands of people are consulting Polk's Directory Libraries. We offer you the free use of our directories for single reference.


Many Directories of various cities are bought by progressive concerns, who desire up- to-date mailing lists, classified by trades and otherwise.


Ask for a free copy of our "Directory of Directories, " or for our "List of Mailing Lists."
