ADVERTISING. We have been carrying on
the Louisville Journal between &c and 81
years. During all that time, We have known
no man of business in the city to fail who ad
vertised literally And we have known no one
to succeed in any considerable, if even in a
respectable degree who. didn't advertise hber
ally
Do you tell US, oh candidate for the custom
Of the community, that you can't afford to
advertise because your business is dull? All
why is it dull7 Listen and we will tell you.
1t is dull because you don't advertise, and you
don't advertise because it is dull So the
vacant circle is complete. We tell you, if you
are doing i'll, to advertise that you may do we'll,
and, if you are doing WE'LL advertise that you
may do better Set high your mark of bust
ness success, and advertise up to it. You can
do so, if you will, even in hard times.
A little nerpe is needed in advertising as
we'll as in using any other effective means of
success. Your men who have no more nerve
than wet rag advertise little or not at all, and
they succeed little or not at all. You may
suppose that VIC are giving advice that we
think would benefit ourselves Yes, we do
think that it would benefit us, but benefit you
immensely more Think little, and you will
agree with u.s. And if you do agree with us,
be wise enough to act accordingly ly.-Loaisctlte
