"Shal we stop our advertising for

This is a question that some business
men are apt to ask themselves, particu-
larly in the summer, or during what
they regard as their "dull season."
Suppose your engineer asked you:
'Shall stop putting coal on my fires,
sir?"
What would you reply?
"Why, no-unless you want the en-
CINE to stopv'
The advertiser who thinks of discon-
tinuing, may argue. 1--WE have been
advertising so long and so steadily that
our name and specialties are well
known, and we intend to advertise again
when business is better in our line than
it appears to be now; in the meantime
our business won't stop"
No,neither will the engines stop the
minute the men suspend shoveling in
coal. The point is, however, that when
the engine is to be started again, ten
times as much will have been lost in
power as has been saved in fuel or feed.
Using up reserve force never pays.
