[ EUery merchant, manufacturer
or business man who has beconae
prominently rich, has made his
fortune by judicious advertising
No exception TO this rule can be
cited! Stewart, Ms Prince of
Merchants, whsn a poor man, was
driven 10 advertising, as a last
resort, 10 get his stock turned into
motley so as 10 meet a note. Ar

could make. IL still better IN pros
psrity, he became d persistent ,ad
vertiser, and thus gained his co
lOssal fortune. ' ''''"
Some merchants say II Is not worth

BY its suggestion, fhe las anything u

their local news, the most IN portant
item cf which is where they can finj
just what they want when they come %
town to make their purchases. If your
stock is 80 old, rusty, dusty and out Of
style that it is worthless, or if it is run
down so that you have nothing left that
people, would W mt. it is not worth
while for you to advertise; But if il 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 ynu have them, and want
to sell them at q fair price. i'hHo u
