Every merchant, manufacturer
or business man Who has become
prominently rich, has made his
fortune By judiOiOas advertising.
No exception to This rule can be
cited! Stewart, The Prince of
Merchants, When a poor man, was
driven 10 advertising, as a last
resort, to get his stock turned into
money so as TO meet a note. Ar,
guing from this that If IL was
good for him in adversely, he
could make 1t still better in pros
perity, he became Il persistent adj
vertiser, and thus gained his CO.
lOssal fortune.
Some merchants say it is not worth
while co advertise; for no person reads
advertisements; yet every merchant in
this county will read this ADVERTISE
ment, and if he is wise he will profit
by it's suggestion, if he has anything to
offer worth advertising How much
more then will those read them who
are not go largely supplied with read
ing matter, are at leisure in the even>
ing, and must depend ON their paper for
their local news, the most Important
item Of which is where they can find
just what they want when they come to
town to make their purchases. lfyoui
stock is so old, rusty, dusty and out of
style that it is worthless, or il it is run
down so that you have nothing left that
people would w,nt, it is not worth
while for you to advertise. But if it is
new, fresh and sparkling, up to the
times, and such as the people want,
don't hide them, but publish to the
world that you have them, and want
to sell them at q fair price.
