THE WAY TO DO BUSINESS NOWADAYS
The Boston Daily Bee says:
To keep up with the times, and be somebody, is
to advertise. And as a matter of course tho
way to run behind hand, sink into obsoleliSm,
and he nobody is not to advertise. The logic
of both propositions is straight and legitimate.
The man in these days who supposes he can
get along without putting his sign in the news
papers, will wake uP one of these tine morn
Jugs, and find himself the victim of a very; big
mistake. This matter of advertising is no
longer an experiment, but q tried and proved
fact-just as much SO as the plaincst thing in
mathematics. He who suPposes that the world
will. hunt him up when buried in shadows, while
others are dashing out in broad sunlight, has
vet to learnthe rudiments Of success penetrate
the wind of victory.
The more publicity n business has the more
it is put into peoples eyes and cnrs, the better
it wiif be for the man doing it.! Hence in: the
best regulated and largest fortnnc-making es.
tablishment there is setapart a'ccrtain amount
for Advertising just as much as for paying bills
and meeting notes. 1t is rightly considered one
of the necessities of q successful trade To
to do without would be almost equivalent to
having no stock. = II 49, -, :: !
