The modern merchant who never
advertises escapes lot of trouble.
He may keep out of some of it with
out intending to do anything of the
sort. but he escapes it just the same.
He gets rid of the trouble of prpear-
ing advertisements, and, Of course,
has no worry about changing them
and keeping them up to date. He is
not bothering about the way his ad-
vertisements are printed, nor the po-
sition they occupy. He can say, with
much truthtolness, that it is no
trouble to show his goods he is sell
dom asked to show any. But his
& rsatest saving of trouble is in not
having to sell goods to people who
stay away, but who would come to
his store if he advertised. Then, al
he only sells few goods, he has few
goods to buy, and there is more
trouble saved. He never has a large
staff of assistants. He gets rid Of the
trouble of having to pay for advertis-
ing. Finally he never has the
trouble Of enlarging his store, or of
moving to a bigger one, and it is
very little trouble to count his money.
