The Manner Of Man who Advertises
Says the Jacksonville Metropolis:
''You will notice papers like the
New York Herald, Journal, Times,
Chicago Record and Tribune who do
a great deal of advertising.
''Who are the people that do this
advertising?
care they the failures, the plung-
ers, the speculative class, or are they
good business men?
"They are the Wannamakers, the
Seigel Coopers, the Macy's the En-
richs, the Bloomingdales and hosts
of similar people,"
Say what you may, do what you
may, when the harvest is reaped it
will be seen that it is the business
man who advertiseS that will gather
the crop. Ii is the rule that prevails
in every city in the country and has
few if any exceptions.
The man who has not get-up-a and
get enough to advertise has not get
up-and-get enough to do successful
business.
If he is too close TO advertise, he is
too close to buy good goods.
If he is too narrow to take broad
view of business, he is too narrow to
90 successful business.
Pick up any daily newspaper in the
country and a glance at its advertis-
ing columns will tell you who are the
successful business men.
Take hint and join the procession.
Tax thou thy talent today that
thrift tend thee tomorrOw-test the
| the tales the types tell--read the adj
vertisements in the Banner and profit
thereby.
