We all depend, more or less, upon the publictor
our support. We all trade with the public-law-
yers doctors, shoemakers, artists, blacksmiths,
showmen, Opera-singers, railroad presidents and
college professors. Those who deal with the pub
lie must be careful that their goods are valuable
that they genuine and will give satisfaction.
When you get an article which you know is going
TO please your customers, and that, when they
have tried it, they will feel that they have got their
moneys worth. then let the fact be known that
YOU have got 1t. Be careful to advertise in some
shape or other, because il is evident that II a
man has ever so good an article for sale, and no.
body knows it. il will bring him no return. In
country like this, where nearly everybody reads,
and where newspapers are issued and circulated
in editions of five thousand to two hundred thou
sand, IL would be very unwiSe II this channel were
not taken advantage of tu reach the public in ad-
yertising. A newspaper goes into the family and
is read by wife and children. we'll as the head Of
the house; hence hundreds and thousands of peo-
pie may read your advertisement while you are
attending to your routine business. Many. per-
haps read 1t while you are asleep. The whole
phtlOsophv of life Is first SOW" then ''1reap."
This is the way the farmer does. He plants his
potatoes and corn and sows his grain, and then
goes about something else and the time comes
when he reaps. But he neverreaps trst and sows
afterwards. This principle applies to all kinds OF
business, and to nothing more erninently than to
advertising. Ifa man has genuine article there
is no way in which he can reap more advantage
ously than by sowing to the public in this way:
one which will please his customers. Anything
spurious will not succeed permanently, because
the public is wiser than many imagine. Men and
women are selfish, and we an prefer purchasing
where we can get the most for our money, and we
try to find out where we can most surely do So
You may advertise a spurious article, and induce
many people to call and buy it once, but they will
denOunce you as an inposter and swindler, and
your business Will gradually die out and leave
depepd upon chance custom. You oil need to
have your customers return and purchase again.
