Our work must needs have selling virtue
of the highest order :. not only to secure
results for our clients but for ourselves. for
it is results" that we obtain and the adver-
tising we do for our clients that enables us
to hold our present business and to interest
new accounts.
Thus you see client interests are doubly
safeguarded in this organization, viz.--for
reason of his success and our own selfish
desire to succeed because of his success,
That there is an ideal incentive for salts
factory results is evidenced by our long
association with our clients.
We have the unusual record of seven years
and six months with each of our present
accounts and this average is constantly
becoming longer.
In 1919 our business increased $50 per cent
over that of 1918. Ninety-six per cent of our
total volume of business in 1919 was from
clients who had been with us more than one
year-up to twenty-five years.
Each story of success we tell is based on
actual facts each instance we cite is
from our own experience . we have
helped in securing results that are little short

servative means that were. cautious and
economical in the extreme.

Markets up to the present time in this
impetuous upward rush have carried even
mediocre goods into sales records almost
undreamed. But it will not be long before
production will begin to catch up with de-
mand :. not very long before the present
almost savage buying will give place to
more careful methods =. when product
will be carefully considered from the stand
point Of quality and merit and reason
able price paid therefor.
When this time comes manufacturers who
have insisted on better goods, properly and
expertly advertised and merchandised, viii!
find their true markets whereas manu-
facturers who have been careless of the quail
ity of their goods and injudicious in their
advertising and merchandising methods will
have an unpleasant awakening.
One reason for the unvarying success OF
the campaigns that we have prepared is the
fact that each has represented most worthy
product-perhaps the best in its line.
We have surrounded all our campaigns
with scientific precautions in every direction,
none more complete than about the quality
of the product to be advertised.
Tests in this direction are being constantly
made in our Experimental Kitchen-in the
laboratories of noted chemists, etc. 1t is
quite as much to the advantage Of our clients
as to ourselves to know - with scientific
clearness and dehniteness the true nature
and quality of their product they, our
clients, have urged us to learn all we could
of this precise and useful knowledge.
