TRY A WANT AID.
THE ONLY SAFE
WAY To BUY

Things even themselves up; they
find their level If you get some
thing for nothing it goes fast. What
ever comes too cheaply does not last
long. "Unsight and Unseen" trad
ing is known to every boy and to
every man who was once a boy. To
Take Chances Is Human Nature. To
hope-to believe what we want to be
lieve-to try again and again to
prove OURSELVES the winner is
the gambling spirit which easily
moves the average Of humanity. But
man works for the price to first buy
necessities. Man Works Because Of
That Ever Deep Down Fear of Star
vation-of hunger, cold and despair
alton which would follow individual
or universal idleness. And, having
worked, man seeks to make the pay
or profit from his work get him in
return as much for his money as his
cash can buy in the open market. In
The Open Market of Advertising and
Manufacturing Snap Judgment and
Bad Bargains are Unnecessary. We
are laying down no hard and fast rule
Of buying, we are calling no names,
we are not condemning concerns or
manufacturers who sell in other ways;
there are honestly conducted mail
order houses, but necessities are sta
