The Precise Meaning
of and Cause for Cut
Prices and Clear
fti
anCe Sales
By j. R. HAMILTON
Former Advertising Manager Of wanamsksA Philadelphia

When you suit Of clothes marked down say from $50
to $780, you generally that the merchant
stocked But when you cut price diamond dining
chair any other staple article less responsible for its sale to
STYLE you apt to question the legitimacy Of that sale
Therefore the following facts which will be A. B. to every
buyer and merchant will probably be interesting news to you
Aside from the store that merely lies about its prices and
the store that cuts the figures trivial article as bait
there are four contributing for q cut price.
The which most people already understand OF course
too much stock No buyer tell just what pattern of suit
dress what color in fabric is going to be most popular 80
when it is found that any article is not eagerly bought is
quickly reduced in price The for this h too evident to
dwell upon.
The second cause the financial Every merchant
allows himself and each of his buyers just much money for
every stock Of goods carried For example, shoe department
which allowed $4,000 upon which to do business must do
business that much capital The buyer must be in the market
goods certain of the year. his capital
all tied up in old stock he will not be able to buy new stock
Therefore he must have ready capital even at the expense OF
profits.
to sell the goods The moment you the public do not buy Ger
tain article that article Immediately loses value In the eyes OF
the who selling it. Again and again the buyer
il obliged cut the price Of perfectly good merchandise simply
because yOu the public have made his saforce lose faith
In it The moment you won't buy it they can't sell it.
The fourth cause the interest investment stores
money made the number of times is able to turn its stock
year. The greatest dread any store Of stock which does
not un Some merchants have figured that it them to
sell every article in their store at least year And such
merchants do this with such staple articles rising value
az diamonds themselves
These are the clearance sales and prices
and knowing them you should watch the advertising eagerly
for the many advantages you sure to find.

Former Advertising Manager Of Wanamaksr Philadelphia

Since the beginning Of organized society everything without

Fiaue itself has been able to maintain much sentiment amongst
civilized races is that it gave to children name.
There virtue in ITSELF except that throws the
light Of investigation upon whatever the name stands for
Now the object of this article is simply to get to remem
Der the Of the articles you buy at least the names OF the
people you buy them from Because that is the only way OF
increasing good business methods in this city.
this last twenty years business have discovered new
method of establishing They do it through advertising
Now again there no special virtue in advertising except
that it does things First it sells goods cheaper because 1t
sells them And second it horens the time that for
mery took establish There just as honest business
men who do not advertise there who do That not the
point The point is that they not good business men and
that you have any way telling whether they are honest
or not
Now there great many advertisers in this paper today
and eVey day who have established for themselves for their
uroducts good name. There is lifetime OF hard EFFORT
attached to the signature of many Of these ads so you cannot

wish to buy.
When product has an established name you know
where to 60 the quality does not live up to the guaranty
So turn to the advertising in this paper today read it. buy

What of the People?

In all political parties the self
constituted Leaders" are casting
around to determine who they"
will select to make the race for
president and vice president Of
the United States at the next
election.
Senator This and That and
Congressman So and So and Boss
Somebody Else are getting their
heads together in an effort to hit
upon some likely person who will
be acceptable to them" and at
the same time hoping and pray
ing that the political lightning
may strike himself.
The people? Pooh! They
don't count. All they are ex-
pected or allowed to do is to
trail along to the polls and vote
as they are told to do. They are
not supposed to thing, because
they are not credited by the lead
ers and the bosses with possess
ing any brains, to say nothing of
rights.
When the great ones" of the
parties set their seal of approval
or disapproval upon this man or
that man, do they first 60 to the
people of their districts and as
certain who They want for presi-
dent?
Not a bit of it!
For what do the people" know
of politics? What do they know
of men and of rhe affairs of state?
Who are they that they should
even presume to have a voice in
the selection of a standard bear
er for a great political party?
At least, so reason the great"
and the mighty"
But some day there will come
a change. Some day the man of
the people will come into his
owr, and the great" and the
''elect" will bow down to his
wishes and crawl for his favor.
Some day this country will be
a nation of the people and will
be governed by the people, and
their will will be a law unto
itself.
Speed the day when the people
are something more than just
the people!"
