Why do people read advertisements2
To see who is enterprising and to learn
what is going on. To see If there is
sny.hing new, or anything that they
want. To see if the seasons styles
have come in, and to'ind out who has
them. To know if any one is selling
| of at reduced rates, or TO watch the
| chance Of an auction. For amusement.
To satisfy curiosity. Because they
have read all the stories, marriages,
births, deaths, locals and accidents.-
Because they want to. Because they
can't help it-Ohio State Journal.
The power of print Is well known,
but not we'll understood. A printed
sentence has q wonderful advantage

EUery merchant, Manufacturer
or business man Who has become
prominently rich, has made his
fortune by Judisious ADVERTISING
No exception TO Mis rule can be
cited! Stewart, Me 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 his that If IL was
good for him in aduersity, he
could make IL still better IN pros
periy, he became Il persistent ad
vertiser, and thus gained his Co.
lossdl fortune.
Some merchants say il 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, il he has anything to
offer worth advertising How much
more then will those read them who
are not so 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 cf which is where they ian find
just what they want when they come to
town to make their purchases. lf your
stock is so old, rusty, dusty and out of
style hat 1t is worthless, or it it is u
down so that you have nothing left that
people would mt. 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 a fair price.
