Please listen to a short talk upon a
most vitality important subiect-One
which Is greatly disturbing the bust
ness world to-day,
You have doubtless heard of the
word substitution" You have prob
ably read that substitution is fraud"
Tack that saying firmly In your mind
and keep It there. II is worth some
thing. Ii Is true--almost invariably.
You call at q store and ask for an
article of a certain brand or manufac-
ture, n which has been thoroughly
advertised for years, and which has
earned an excellent reputation. The
dealer says here's something just as
good for less money" That dealer
thereby usually tells a direct false
hood. He knows that the article
which he offers you at a lower price
is inferior, but the point is that 1t
yields him a greater profit; hence his
desire to substitute.
You may ask If an article is superior
just because Ii is advertised. Yes, 1t
Is, and here's why. The many we'll
known houses which spend millions
OF dollars every year In the good pub
locations of the country are managed
by men Of brains and wide business
experience, and these men know only
too well that unless an article has
merit there is absolutely no business
sense In spending good money u adj.
vertise it. 1t does not pay to adyer-
tise any article OF general use for a
short time only. Every advertiser
must wait some time before his adver-
Using has created the desired impress
sion and while he is waiting his goods
must have time to prove whether or
not they are good. If they are good,
they stick; If not, they do not, and II
they were not good and did not stick.
would this experienced business man
continue to spend good money adver.
Using the ~goods--throw good money
after bad az it were? Never. He
has too much business sense
The average article which you see
advertised month after month in good
publications is itself good. Buy an
advertised article. 1t Is the true safe
way.
When you are buying ask for what
you want and get what you ask for.
Remember, Substitution is Fraud"

PARAMOUNT IN CONGRESS.
President to Make Urgent Demand for
st Antitrust Legislation.

Washington, Oct. 23.-President
Roosevelt has begun the preparation
of his second annual message to con
gress. 1t can be said on good author
.ity that he is determined to force leg
islation upon the antitrust question in
the next session of congress, his de-
termination in that direction being car
ried to such an extent that all other
topics of national interest will be sub
ordinated to the antitrust question.
When congress meets on Dec. 1 an
antitrust bill, prepared by Attorney
General Knox, will be introduced be-
fore the first days adjournment. The
attorney general has given .clese study
and research to the preparation of this
bill, and it is said to be both compre-
hensive in character and effective in
reaching illegal combinations Of cap
ital which work for the restraint of
trade and the ruin of competition.
The president and his advisers are
agreed that the trust question is the
paramount issue with the people of the
country, and that it will be for the
best interests of the Republican party
to meet this issue and dispose Of it at
the earliest possible moment.
