for the Busy Business Man

The man who advertises is the man
that makes good. He has to. He has
set forth certain facts, certain guar.
antees in relation to his goods, or
his work, or his ability, that he, must
live up. to or become discredited; he
loses reputation. No man dependent
on the good will Of others-as all
men In commercial life are-can al.
ford that. Therefore when he adyer.
tises. he enters into covenant with
himself to be as good as his published
promises; and as time passes and his
customers and his clients find that his
goods. or his words, or his ability, are
what he has said they were, his repu.
tation becomes established and he has
acquired valuable asset OF which no
man can deprive him. He finds also
that he has been building up valua.
Bile trade or connection due to his
reputation. No man bent on securing
q firm commercial foothold can dis.
pense with advertising. He might as
well strive to carry on business with.
out banking facilities or the use OF the
mails. And he should use the medium
that will carry his message direct to
the class of people he desires. to reach;
not spasmodically but consistently,
persistently and Interestingly. Just
as running water will wear! a stone SO
will the keep-everlastingat.it adver.
tiser impress himself on the minds
of those he wishes to interest.
