The advertising merchant is the one
who does the business in these days of
push and enterprise. There are more
newspaper readers today than ever be-
fore in the history of the world.
The newspaper places your bnsi.
ness under the eyes of the buyer. He
secs what he wants. and, knowing where
to find it, looks up the wide-awalse mer.
chant who asked him to come and sec
him. Success in these days of sharp
competition calls for eternal vigilance.
