PROFITABLE PUBLICITY,
Brevity in Advertising.

BY NATHANIEL c. FOWLER, JR., of New York
Doctor OF Publicity.
few words inside of man are worth
a hundred outside of him.
Too much advertising brevity is bad,
but not as bad as too little brevity.
Many words may please you, but if
they don't please the reader they might
as well not be printed.
Your advertisements are long, perhaps,
and when you write them you say as
much as you can in the space you use.
They are interesting to you and to
your family.
Do people read these long advertise.
ments?
Do you?
If you don't read them, why should
you expect that Others should read
yours?
Say enough, but don't say too much.
Even ii people would read long winded
advertisements, it might not be well to
tell SO much about your goods that
people would have no curiosity to see
them.
Remember, advertising does not sell
goods.
Advertising creates an interest in you
and yours, and by bringing people to
you, makes it easier for you to do bust
ness with them.
Advertisingis simply the most economi-
cal way of placing buyers in position
Tor you to handle them.

The Second Divine Command.

[By Sidney H. Hatch, Everett, Mass, J
In life's stern conflict thou shouldst heec
The measure Of thv brothers need,
And as you would yourself receive
With loving hands his wants relieve;
Seek not advice from greed and pelf,
But love thy neighbor as myself"
Others may seek for wealth and fame,
Needless of Justice and her claim;
Often the call of Mercy spurn,
And from their suffering fellows turn,
Eager for glory or for pelf,
But love thy neighbor as myself"
He lends to God who feeds the poor;
Let Charity dispense your store.
Who gives with wisdom born oflove
Will find his treasures stored above.
And Christ accepts the humblest deed
To aid His little ones in need.
