What n Rostonian Thinks.

The Adams IN " VisitW speaks of an emf
nent BostOnian who regarded an advertise
ment in newspaper as personal invitation
to call, and said: "while l sometimes hesitate
about entering store the proprietors OF which
have not thus sent their cards to my residence,
l always feel certain of Il cordial welcome
from the members of an advertising Arm"
The same paper adds: There is in this re-
mark an assurance of one of the many results
of advertising. The trader and his calling be-
come identified, and the name Of the man Is in
separately connected in the mind of the public
with his merchandise. It may not be the very
day an advertisement appears that it bears its
fruit; weeks or months may elapse, and then,
when the want arises, the article to be OBJ
tanned Immediately suggests the advertiser.
This is the effect of general advertising when
persistently followed. A special class Of ad-
vertisements, where some novelty is announced
is more immediate. shrewd business man
once advertised q triling article in q manner
which could scarcely prove remunerative. His
neighbOrs expressed their regret ut his folly
but he appeared contented- Though his gross
sales of the article did not cover the cost OF his
advertising, he attracted a new class of people
to his store, and his shrewdness paid him in a
very short time, for new eyes saw what he had
to offer in addition to the specially advertised,
and new purses came under contribution TO
him.

chants, Manufacturers, Business Men, Me-
chanics and Farmers throughout Tennessee
and the South generally, the WKKxLT UNION

sents most desirable medium.

If you have any doubts about it, the only
way to find out is to give it fair trial, and as
certain whether it does or not.
From every section of the country come tes-
timOnials of the advantages derived from
well regulated system of advertising. A surer
or safer investment for business men cannot
well be imagined. It puts them before the
public in a beneficial light; "Ghey become
known and read of all men," and reap an
abundant harvest from the seed thus sown.
There can be no doubt Of the fsct; patrons de-
clare il; newspapers assert ii, and experience
proves il. Here are a few cases
gathered from various sources illustrating this
point:
