A great deal is said about the value Of adj
vertising to the salesman, but very little about
it's value to the buyer, yet it is obvious upon re-
Fiction that such an expensive piece OF ma
chinery as the modern system of advertising
could not be maintained unless its benefits were
mutual.
It takes two to make q bargain and this new
method Of bargaining, this new channel Of CON-
munication between producer and consumer,
must be giving satisfaction to both, although
the said party Of the second part rarely real
izes how greatly to his advantage it is
The common saying ''It pays to advertise
has aiwider meaning than it is generally cred
tied with.
Advertising on the whole pays all those con-
cerned, Advertising pays the advertiser in
case the money is wisely expended Advertis-
ing pays the periodical, we are happy to say.
Advertising pays the purchaser, for it puts him
in the proud position Of being the sought in
stead Of the seeker.
As maiden whose hand is sought by
tllrong of eager suitors is more happily sit
uated than she who has none, so is the consum-
er today vastly better off than he was before
the discovery Of advertising For the expen-
diture Of five or ten cents he can summon to
his presence in an instant statesmen Of all sorts
Of goods who will spread out before him their
most attractive wares and urge them with their
utmost eloquence.
Is he averse to investing. heihas but to close
the magazine and the solicitors of his patron
age vanish as by magic.
But so long as he is willing to listen they are
glad TO talk business to him, even though he
has not q cent TO spend.
The signs we see in stores, mo trouble to
show goods, No obligation to buy, are not
to be taken literally, as person known to be
penniless would soon find to his chagrin. But

in accomplishing it, could the result have been
attained as quickly or more cheaply by any
other means?
How long without advertising would Il have
taken to have developed and made known to
everybody the automobile and the hand
camera, the player piano and the phonograph,
the Office utilities, the toilet accessories aud
all the thousand Yankee notions that make
our lives so pleasant and complete?
No, advertising is not lone Of the economic
wastes Of competition" as it Is sometimes
called
It is on the whole well worth what it costs TO
the community and it is hard to see how the
world can ever get along without it.
Even if competition be sometime eliminated,
advertising Of some kind win have to be kept
up unless the race is to stagnate. s.
Progress consists in the creation Of new
wants; happiness in the satisfaction Of them.
So both progress and happiness are facilitated
by the efforts of the advertiser
he is not producer; no, and neither is lub-
ricating oil fuel for the engine, but 1t Is quite
as indispensable as coal
The advertiser should not be regarded as .
parasite upon industry, as an extravaganza to
be some time eliminated in the interests Of
economy of distribution.
He is more likely to be regarded in the fu-
ture as person of greater Importance than ct
present, for the training of the public in new
habits and the introduction of new utilities will

tion become more active
When his real value to the community as an
accelerator of civilization becomes recognised,
historians will rank the discovery of advertis-
ing as an epoch-making event and not less i'm
portant than the discovery of America. The

THE ADVERTISER AS A
PUBLIC BENEFACTOR

they Do honestly apply to the silent and
obliging statesmen who stand behind the pages
of periodical.
Now consider the lot of one who had the mis-
fortune to live before the advertising era. he
had first to discover for himself the want of
something Naturally this discovery was not
usually made until something he already had
gave out, and then he knew no better than to
replace it with something Of the same sort
This relation of consumer to producer was
not merely troublesome to the individual, but
hindrance to progress.
It put the burden of instigating innovation
upon the person who was least capable of it.
THE PURCHASER. Let the reader imagine
himself in the position of his great grandfather
His clothes were wearing out He must first
hunt up q man who makes cloth and get from
him enough for suit. Then he must go to q
tailor, if in city, or wait till one comes around
if in the country, and get him to make it under
his direction.
Nowadays man has but to open paper
or periodical to have called to his attention the
desirability Of new clothes.
Artists of ability with the aid Of manly mod
els give him free advice on the cut of coat or
the tying of a tie.
He learns of new books and musical instru-
ments; he is told Of the attractiveness Of new
foods and drinks.
The advertiser is public educator, more
proficient in the art of teaching than the grad
yates of our normal schools.
It is due largely to him that in regard to the
conveniences Of life we live in another world
than our ancestors New luxuries are invented
daily and speedily become necessities through
the medium of the advertisement.
For instance, the use of prepared cereal foods
is a veritable revolution in the dietary Of the
nation. Say five million dollars has been spent

JAPANESE PRESS
LAUGHS AT STORY
FROM TURTLE BAY

'JapanophObia' was given consider.
able stimulus in America over the re-
ported est blishing Of a naval base in
Turtle Bay, Lower California, by the
Japanese cruiser salvaging the wreck
ed cruiser Asama recently. The Jap
anese press ridicules the idea of a
Japanese ambition in either America
or Mexico and declares the problem
OF japan lies in China where she will
not tolerate interference. The follow
ing article from the Toxic Sekai, Is
one OF many on the same subject
written since the Turtle Bay incident:
The Americans have recently be-
come over-sensitive beyond our under
standing. The attitude of the Ameri-
cans toward Japan is that OF a man
who imagines things and feel uneasy
We admire the great enterprising
spirit Of the American people. But
they lack the presence of mind when
they come across with any event in

papers appear to be too sensitive
about the Turtle Bay affair AS the
result of the newspaper comments on
that affair, the officials of America
have been instructed to investigate
the matter. Oh how difficult it is to
be American officials! Do the Ameri-
cans think that we have any ambition
in Mexico? We frankly say here that
IL America should loose her power
and the Pan-Americ9nism could not be
and she could not con-
troll the situation in Central America
even when anarchy reigns there, then
Japan for the peace of the world
might step to the American continents
and render services in putting down
But we trust that Ameri-
ca being great power will be able
to manage affairs in American cont.
nents. What use is there OF Japan
an ambition in Mexico?
"Japan's task Is in China, in other
words Japan is to undertake to solve
the Asiatic problem. Japan would OBJ
ject to any other Power than China

that reason, because the China issue
is life and death issue for Japan.

on the same principle on which
