the indictment, charging the offense on
more than one occasion. A second Of

NEWSPAPER AS A SALESMAN
Modern Method Of Shoppers 10 to
scrutinize Advertising Before
Leaving Home.

The majority Of retail store custom
ers, before starting out on shopping
forays, study the newspaper advertis-
Ing. This habit Is a great time-saver.
The shopper escapes fruitless visits
to many stores. and needless bother
ing of clerks, by learning in advance
where she is likely to find what she
wants. She gives very little attention
to the places that fail to inform her
as to their offerings. Many women,
too, having become personally ac
quainted with the store people dislike
to enter their places of business un
less they feel fairly sure of buying
They avoid this embarrassment by
learning in advance through the news
paper where they can probably supply
their needs.
Thus 1t is that many sales are prac
tically made before the buyer leaves
her home. 1t has been proved over
and over again, that the trade will
pass stores with main street loca-
tion that fail to advertise to hunt up
poorly located shops on back streets
that are well advertised. A merchant
might as well close his shutters in
business hours as to fail to meet his
competitors in the field where they
are doing the heart of their business

KEEP AT 1T, SAYS CHALMERS
Business Success Depends on consis
tency and Thorouohness and
Eye to Future.

Hugh Chalmers of Detroit, the man
who quit $4,000 year job to enter
the automobile manufacturing bust
ness and made good, told the Omaha
Ad club at a banquet in that city the
other evening of The Principles of
Business Success
1T is easier to make goods than to
sell them" said Mr.. Chalmers. so the
principles of business success, as far
as his mind was concerned, are in
volved in successful salesmanship.
Advertising and the personality OF the
salesman were the two points empha-
sized
Advertising and publicity are the
two greatest builders of confidence
known to the business man." he said.
"A salesman can talk to only one or
two people at the same time, so it
might properly be said that salesman
ship applies only to the individual
while advertising reaches the public
as well. because by advertising you
can reach hundreds and thousands
and millions of people, while the sales
man can reach only one or two at a
time.
Keep everlastingly at it. II were
dead sure that We had all our 1910
output sold and clear up to 1912. 1
would not spend dollar less in ad
vertising. My being in business is not
confined only to the time up to 1912.
and I am a firm believer in keeping
oversold. You have to deal with hui
man nature and it has always wanted
and always will want those things
which are hardest to get.
You shut off the source of supply
when you stop advertising. You must
send the best possible appeal to
million minds and you must keep on
appealing"
AS for the salesman. Mr.. Chalmers
said the first essential was health, and
the others, honesty, initiative, thor
ough knowledge of his business, tact.
industry, sincerity, mind receptive
to suggestion, and enthusiasm.
One thing has always helped me
in my business" Mr. Chalmers said
in closing Il make 1t point to keep
before me the ten most important
things l have to do. Every morning
my stenographer has on my desk the
ten most important things which I
must attend to"

WHAT HOMER THINKS
The Advertising Argument.

Argumentative advertising produces
the largest volume in the total of a
years business, provided the distrib-
ution Of the article advertised has
been thoroughly made.
Let the argument be as strong and
conclusive as possible, using illustra-
tions, whenever in gSod taste.
Selling goods by advertising is de
pendent on your ability to influence
the Judgment of the reader in your
favor; and, to do this successfully, the
reader must feel that he has full op,
portunity for the exercise of his own
judgment. even though his decision
has unconsciously been brought about
by the persuasive and logical charac.

The surest way to commit
business suicide is to cut down
expenses by cutting down your
advertising.
Newspaper Advertising Best.

The latest organization of business
men to discover that the newspaper
is the greatest of all advertising me-
diums is the Ohio Retail Shoe Dealers
association. A Springfield, Ohio, dis
patch. giving an account of the recent
meeting of this organization. says.
among other things:
Newspaper advertising was de-
clared to be the best trade-bringing
medium for the trade in resolution
adopted by the Ohio Retail Shoe Deal
ers' association, which closed its an
nual convention here today.
Many of the members stated that
they had tried other forms Of adver-
tising, but that the results from
newspapers overshadowed all other
kinds. s."-Birmingham News.

. THE RETAILERS LIMITED
POSSIBILITIES.
BY GEORGE s. eANTA, 8. A.

BY GEORGE s. sANTA, 8. A.
Many a retail business today
is merely keeping the proprie-
tor out of the poor house. He
turns his stock of dry goods,
or his groceries, or his hard
ware, once or twice in the
course of the year. He pays
for his goods after his custom
ers have paid him for them.
While he bought at a high
price he sells at a very narrow
margin Of profit and as the
years 90 by he finds that he is
working himself out and sradu-
ally is getting together enough
SO that he may be able to live
few years, Of his old age,
without work-on what he has
"laid up."
The whole difficulty with the
modern retail business IL in the
small profits made. This must
always be so because retailing
is primarily a competitive busi-
ness. No man can have a
snap" in it because others are
always ready to step in, and, If
his margin Of profit on any par
ticular goods looks tempting,
promptly sell more cheapIy.
The only way to get rich (of
course we are all above such a
base ambition) in the retail
business today is to multiply
sales. The profits, as pointed
out, can never be great on indi-
Vidual sales and the whole Sc
cret of success must lie In buy
my at rock bottom prices and
then making numerous sales
so that in the aggregate the
days business will show some
thing worth while. And this is
the point where advertising
comes in. Your competitor
cannot reach your advertising
because that is part of your
business personality. He may
sell the Identical goods that you
keep, yet advertising enables
you to reach and make many
customers, who, but for the
force applied in this way would
never buy the article you sell
at all or else would buy it Of
some one else.
Look at the wonderful ad-
vertisins done by modern de-
partment stores. What seems
often like lavish waste is spent
on advertising little notions
and articles which have only a
very small profit In them for
the merchant. Yet the depart
ment store man is one of the
few retailers who is really ma
king money today and If you
took his advertising away from
him you would deprive him of
his Midas touch.

HOW HOMER ARRIVED.

When Homer first set out to write.
His modesty was such
That. though his stun was pretty good.
1t never caught on much.
Until day friend remarked:
''Old man, II you are wise.
You'll drop this shrinking violet style
And start to advertise.
He took the tip. . The Argos Mall
Next week came out with this:

WHAT HOMER THINKS.
EXCLUSIVE CHAT. DON'T MISSY
He gave his views on every point
That vexed the Grecian mind:
His name each morning in the press
You never failed to find.
So when the odyssey appeared,
1t sold like anything.
The Spartan serial rights brought In
The ransom OF a king.
And Homer, lingering his cheeks.
Went out and slew it's said

Before he went to bed.

Advertising That Paws.

1t is almost invariably the case that
an advertiser will come back to the
newspaper after he has tried every
other medium. From the smallest to
the greatest, the advertisers are find
ing out that the newspaper which
goes into the home day after day and
becomes in reality a member Of the
household, is the only medium which
reaches and catches the attention of
all classes.
