GOOD ADVERTISING.
1t Appeals to the People
Without in Any Way
Deceiving Them and
1t Sells the Goods.

The purpose of advertising is to
attract and create a demand for
the thing you have for sale. But
not every possible means of secur-
ing this result is legitimate and
will in the long run promote the
success of the man using it. There
are certain ethical considerable
which, regardless of the principle
involved, have q bearing on the
lasting success of the advertiser
who desires to build up perma-
nent business.
A fundamental rule In building
up such business is frankness
and fairness in the statements
made about goods. 1t is a mistake
to think that advertising is just
ingenious deception. The largest,
most lasting success comes when
the goods and III, advertising cor
respond.
This in no wise conflicts with
another principle. An essential
clement is poetry. 1t is often
said that something is not truth
but poetry. A good advertisement
is both truth and poetry. The
bare statement of facts is not good
advertising any more than the
skeleton of a man is man. To
put flesh on the facts and send the
life-blood coursing through vein
and artery is the work of the ad.
writer. This is job for poet.
The real poet of literature glori-
fies the commonplace The true
advertiser of che market place
glorifies the ordinary till 1t be
comes so attractive that everybody
wants it. The prosy statement
that exceptionally good goods are
offered at exceptionally reasonable
prices will not be as attractive as
the poetic coloring which can be
siven to the commonest grades at
the most ordinary prices. This
poetic element appeals to the peo-
pie and yet they are not really de-
ceived by it. 49,
To say that the cloak ls all wool
but the buttons and the lining
may be fact, but that statement in
itself is not the last word nor the
best word about it. The style of
it, the fine fit, the color and num-
erous other things are material for
the advertiser. If he knows his
business he will sell more cloaks
than the fellow who just depends
on the cloaks to sell themselves be-
cause anybody can see they are
good cloaks.
Side by side in an eastern viii
lage were two dealers. Both sold
strawberries. One advertised the
fact that he had Strawberries for
sale" The other put few in
genious touches to his ad. When
the folks read it they recalled the
good old days of childhood when
mother made shortcake and sweet
ened it with maple sugar and
poured cream over it. The hint
made people eager for those par
ticular berries, though they came
from the same patch in which the
other mans berries were grown.
A touch of poetry made dollars
for that dealer.
This almost magic touch and
color is one of the vital things
about advertising. Many bit of
real estate has been sold because
of the poetic material in sight
when the investor failed to see
certain other things that he might
have seen. There's money in ad-
vertising when you can put such a
color and light on your goods that
people want them. And this poet
ic touch is not ingenious decep-
tion. 1t can fit every fact--By

Barbara Register.
