The Keystone gives some practical di-
rections. Every merchant should keep
a scrapbook. This suggestion has been
made before, but it is fully worth en-
phasizing. Every bright advertisement
that you notice in your local papers or
those of other towns; every model ad-
vertisement that you observe in your
trade paper, and every practical trade
bringing plan or hint, should be cut out
and pasted in the book, with full data as
to the name and date of the paper. You
will find such a book as this an mex
haustible treasury of riches, especially
on those days when your ideas run
scarce, and you are too busy to take time
to evolve good advertisement.
