A Word 70 Advertisers.

-
Speaking of the benefits TO he derived from
newspaper advertising in dull times Mil
waukee paper relates the following facts,
which should be carefully peru-ed by orr
merchants:
"After the crash of '57, when everybody
was almost scared to death and the croakers
predicted that the country had gone to
smash. a dry goods house was opened in this
civ, which proceeded on tine principle that
in order to reach the boarded money in the
pockets of The people, the proprietOrs must
sell at very reasonable prices and advertise
very largely. They worked vigorously upon
this principle. Their brother merchants
who did not advertise predicted that the
newcomers would be ruined, as they paid too
much for advertising. Nevertheless, they
persisted. In a single year they paid five
hundred dollars in gold to the Daily WIS.
oonsin ior advertising, and at the end ol
seven years they retired from business with
q fortune Of one hundred thousand dollars,
while other merchants on the same street,
come of them opposite their store, had
failed"
We remember similar instance among
our own advertisers in the panic of 1857. A
merchant continued his advertisement in ouI
columns through the whole period of stagns-
ton, and Notwithstanding many predictions
that it "wouldn't pay." His testimony af
terward was that his sales were steady and
his profits satisfactory, while many a mer'
chant around him VINO couldn't afford tc
advertise" saw his clerks stand idle behind
the counters.
A financial panic does lot mean that M
one has any money. There is plenty o
money in the country, and those who hoart
ii are just the ones to be eager for the 'bar
gains" which fall in prices holds out. Blu
to buy they must know where to buy, apt
the merchant who tells them will receiv
their cash.
