A Few Words to
the Merchants

snow now you COuiu iuCrthse your DuB-
mess many fold by very small.in-
vestment you would listen to him,
would you not?
The satisfaction Of doing q steady,
reliable business is great, and the Az
erage merchant dislikes to tire himself
out by applying new methods and then
have to take his chances Of accom-
plishing something. Now II all were
Of the same mind it might be safe, to
say the least, but competition may
come any day with rush and he be
left behind in the procession to medi-
tate on his lack OF forethought.
There are times when courage will
do more for your business than cash.
Every day advertising, il done oour-
ageously and judiciously, will prove a
better asset.
You may have done a good, satisfy
ing business the past year. But you
can do more.
Letting we'll enough alone is poor
satisfaction to the man who knows
better can be done.
How" You may ask.
by advertising"
But have tried that" you may
say, and it was . poor investment.
We admit you may have made mis-
take. That man who undertakes
nothing is the only one who make no
errors. The man who does not see his
mistakes is not so much to be pitied
IS the man who will not see them.
You made a mistake probably be-
cause you did not appreciate the fact
that Advertising is . study,a deep one.
II you lack experience or knowledge,
the only substitute for it 10 the expe-
rienoe Of your friends.
The Sun has on its staff some bright
young men who have made . study Of
advertising. They may not know 1t
= all, but they do know enough to make
the use Of it profitable to you.
The man who is going to wait until
he is richer to advertise or increase
his advertising appropriation will new
er do so.
Every article you have 10 wanted BY
some one, some where, some time.
Study to reach the some ones.
There is no better way to do 20 than
through the advertising columns Of
The Sun.
The Sun went into An average Of
1854 homes in January-the largest
KNOWN CIRCULATION IN PADU-
OAH. When you use its columns
you talk directly to that many. II you
wanted to send postal to these homes
the cards alone would cost you cas-. "a,
aside from the cost of printing or writ
ing. and addressing. Then, too, only
the ones addressed would see 1t. But
take The Sun. An average of five
people read every copy and that means
that IL, $50 people see 1t, and read it
each day.
If you could get that many people
into your store you could certainly
sell to some of them.
II you would put an advertisement
in The Sun you would sssuredly get
some returns from it. That is il you
make it interesting and attractive.
Some people think that advertising
consists of tumble of items. 1t new
er seems to dawn ON them that an ad-
vertisemeut should be formed after
plan.
Advertising is just as essential now
adays to business as steam is to an en-
CINE. 1t is the motive power of bust
ness.
Then use it, Don't pat one al in
paper and look for whirlwind of bus
mess. One shovel of coal, one gallon
OF water will start business. But
they won't keep it running.
The Sun can tell you how it increas-
es your business--By advertising.
