Meaning Of Advertlsinn-

The primary object of the merchant
who advertises in today's newspaper,
says the Philadelphia Record, is TO
sell the goods that are now on his
shelves and counters. The secondary
object is to sell the goods that will
come into his store next week, next
month, next year.
The merchant should never lose
sight of the secondary object OF his
advertising. Each days ad must be
a substantial addition to the founda-
ton of his stores reputation.
The cumulative effect OF daily ad-
Yertising is to make such an impress
sion upon every newspaper reader
that If he does not want any of the
advertised articles Immediately, he
will eventually be made to want them.
and Will have his mind made I'D in
advance as to where he had better
buy them.
Frame your advertising with a view
to instant results, but count confident
ly on an extra dividend in the shane
OF future results.
