/ A DyERrlsE ADVERTISE. ADVERTISE!
"a 1t is truth, universally admitted in this
age, that no man in any business can be sue
,cssful unless he alvcrtiscs literally, and
makes himself and his business known to the
people. lfanybody is so foolish as to doubt
this proposition; let him, open his Sleepy eyes
in husincss-mark the merchant who Is con-
tlnu"liy occupied i'll making himself known
who takes advantage Of that great ruler Of
Punllc opinion, the Press, to render himself
popular and his advantages for doing business
Puoi'c-whQse name and location arc seen in
cards, handbills, &c. whose widc-awakc pol
icy is continually gaining him a notoricty.-
Compare him with that slow go-no- 70 old
|curmudgeon, who never saw his name in print,
except perhaps on the list of petit jurors ; and
who sits bohina his dusty desk, in the dusty
toners, like an old bottle -bcllicd spider, who
has built his web in al obscure corner of IL
di'apldatcd smokc-housc. and sits watching
and waiting in vain for flies. Mark the dull
look about his door, blocked up by empty dry
goods boxes, ornamcntcd once in while By u
piece Of blue thrilling or rusty calico; but
much oitencr proving resting place for a.
crowd Of lazy, lounging loatcrs. who always
resort TO the store o, II man who docs not al
! vertisc, because they know there is no danger
| OF being disturbed by customers. See the ad
vertsing merchant! lie becomes acquainted
with everybody. builds up large business,
gets rich before he is too old to erioy riches
and rctircs, leaving a large and renuncrative
business to his sons and faithful clerks while
ho ENJOYS himself and his wealth. the honorcd
digniflcd president of cvcry society and
association: and perhaps the Incumbent Of the
most honorable and responsible. offices in the
State.
See again your Mad verti.er, who fool,sh]y
thinks people never read the advcrtiseme..
droning out one or two years of dull business
in place, always complaining Of hard times,
and never making larger sale than pound
OF candles or bar of soap, and then moving
TO some other town, "some better busiaess
point" and meeting with the same result there: !:
pillar to post, like five cent travelling men
agcrie, whose whole establishment consists Of
. halt-Starved pOSSum and q sore headed coon,
a bob tailed monkey and squint-cycd Wild
cat and so 60 on till he dies, mourncd by
no one, and oGly remembered as 6 relic Of
barbarisn,." Look around you, enumerate the
merchants Of your acquaintance, and SEC if
this is not 80. People won't trade with man
that don't advertise, because they don't gen
orally know him and besides, they know that
vertisc, can't afford to sell as cheap rs his more
active competitors, that do.
Then advertise,
