The man who does not advertise
simply because his grandfather did
not, should wear knee breeches and a
wig, says an exchange. And the man
who who does not advertise because
it costs money should discharge all
his clerks and other help for the
same reason. The man who does not
advertise because he doesn't know
how to write an advertisement. should
quit eating, because he can't cook.
The man who does not advertise be-
cause somebody said it did not pay,
should not believe the world is round, |
because the ancients said it was fiat.
