The following Connecticut anecdote reminds
US of business men who are to be found in
every town. and who do not or will not re-
cognize the benefits of advertising. One
day last summer a boy was sent from Groton
to New London with a bag of green corn to
sell. He was gone all day and returned
with the bag unopened, which he dumped on
the floor, saying: "There is your corn, go
sell it yourself; can't "Sold any?"
mo, said the boy, 1--WE been all over Ion
don with it, and nobody said word about
green corn. Two or three fellows asked me
what I had in my bag, and told them 1t
was none of their businesslr
