Two Merchants.

Many man has made fortune
through judicious advertising. Take
two men starting In business at the
same time. One uses all the money
he makes in living we'll and sometimes
even extravagantly. The other invests
all the surplus cash that he can lay
his hands on in advertising here, there,
everywhere that he thinks will attract
public notice. What is the result
The man who advertises has crowds
fiocking to his shop to see the beauties
of the advertised goods, and as the
public begins to run so will they con-
tinue from sheer force of habit The
first shopkeeper will in the meantime
be sitting, unthought of and uncared
for, aghast at the crowds which daily
throng the counters of his competitor
and bitterly bewalling the bad luck
which has followed his own venture
into trade. Yet he has no one to blame
but himself.-Chauncey NJ. Depew In
