4 DVERTISE. ADVERTISE. ADVERTISE
n 1t is a truth. universally admitted in this
age that no man in any business can be sue
cessful unless he alvertises literally, and
makes himself and his business known to tho
people. If anybody is so foolish as to doubt
this proposition. let him open his sleepy eyes
and look around him look at his neighbors
in business mark the merchant who is con-
tnual]y occupied in making himself known
who takes advantage of that great ruler Of
public opinion, the Press, to render himself
popular and his advantages for doing business
public whose name and location arc seen in
hundreds Of newspapers and on thousands Of
cards. handbills &c. whose wide-awake pol
icy is continually gaining him u notoriety.-
Compare him with that slow -go-no-go old
icNrmudgcon, who never saw his name in print,
Except perhaps on the list Of petit jurore and
who sits behind his dusty desk, in the dusty
corner of his dusty. grocery. waiting for GUS
toners, like an old bottle-bollied spider. who
di;apidutcd smoke house. and sits watching
and waiting in vain for flies. Mark the dull
look about his door, blocked up by empty dry
goods boxes, ornsmcnted once in u while by =
piece of blue 'dEilling or rusty calico; but
much oftener proving resting place for \
resort to the store of q man who does not ad-
vertisc, because they know there is no danger
OF being disturbed by customers. See the ad-
vertising merchant! He becomes acquainted
with verybody, builds up large business,
gets rich before he is too old TO eIjoy riches,
and rctircs, leaving u large and remunerative
business 60 his sons and faithful clerks; while
he ENJOYS himself and his wealth, the honored
leader OF every progressive movement. the
dignified president of every society ana
association. and perhaps the incumbent Of the
most honorable and Responsible offices in tie
State
See again your non-advertser, no foollshly
thinks people never read the advertisement
column OF newspaper Sec him: we say,
droning out one or two years of dull business
in place. always complaining OF harl times,
and never making q larger sale than pound
Of candies o, a bar Of soap. and then moving
TO some other town. = -one better husiaess
point" and meeting with the same result there:
again removing, and so knocking about from
pillar to post, like five cent travelling men
ngerie, whose whole establishment consists of
half-starved possum and sore headed coon,
a bob tailed monkey an a squint- eyed wild
cat and 60 on TIL he dies, mourn:d by
no one, and only remembers as a " relic cf
barbarism." Look AFRO, nd you, cnunlerate tho
merchants of your acquaintance, and see if
this is not SO. People won't trade with m"n
that don't advertise, because they don't gen
orally know him and besides, they know that
man who is not enterprising enough to ad-
vertise, can't afford to sell as cheap IS his moro
active competitors, that do.
Then advertise,
Merchants Of Red Wing!
