The following from the Sentinel ap-
plies to Phoebe with as much force as to
Eureka: 1t is an old idea of economy on
the part Of some business men that in.
duces them to reduce their advertising
when times are comparatively rather
dull. 1t is just when business is slack
and money scare that the dealer needs to
address his most potent eloquence to GUS
toners, to show that be can make it
worth their while TO deal with him. In
flush times the people are apt to give
much less thought to the question where
they shall purchase than when the pinch
ing season comes and they begin to esii-
mate the value OF quarters and dimes. 1t
is then that the columns OF the newspa-
per are scanned to see who sells cheapest
or offers the best terms; and many a
ilourishing business man can date the
foundation of his prosperity at the period
Of dull times, when he had the nerve to
throw bis bread on the waters in the
shape Of money literally spent ia adver-
Using. dealer wonlCs show, the same
amount of judgment in taking down his
sign in duh times AS in cnrtaiing his adj
yertising.
