TALKS WITH The
BUSINESS MAN
BY NELS DARLING

Merchandise we'll bought is only
half sold. Your stock represents
money, and it is money that is TIED
up Make this money work for you as
much as possible-and advertising is
the key to the situation.
You have certain fixed expenses
that cannot be materially reduced.
Better sell so articles at a gross profit
of 80 cents each, than sell 80 articles
at a gross profit of so cents each, even
though you have to spend two dollars
in advertising in order to sell the fifty
articles.
Nothing succeeds like success. Peo'
pie like to trade with firm that is
doing a good business.
To stop advertising because of a
dull season is to lose momentum. Keep
the ball rolling when you have it start
ed, by using a judicious amount or
advertising motive force.
The large department stores and the
mail order houses are sending tons
and tons of advertising matter into
the short crop sections of the country.
People have to buy some goods, so be
sure to get your share of the business.
The steady drip will wear away the
stone. Careful, stickto-it, information
full advertising will bring paying re-
suits.
With the big merchants of the coun-
try advertising is an asset, not a liza
bility, and you can make your adver-

lures of YOUR business.
