ADVERTISING PAYS.

We have been saying that adver-
Using pays. When we said that we
haa reference to the profit which the
merchant receives from his invest
ment in advertising. The merchant
of today who claims that it does not
nav to advertise, and who does not
advertise, has not learned the modern
business methods of getting business,
and he is playing losing game.
But It pays other people for the
merchants to advertise. Of course it
pays the newspapers a little, but we
are not now discussing that. 1t pays
the customers. How? you ask. Well,
in this way-a merchant knows that
it will not do to advertise an article
at price higher than the other mer-
chants are charging for it. He knows
that in order to get something for
his advertisement he must have some
thing to advertise, and hence he Of
fers his goods, when he goes into the
public print, and asks thereby COM
parison of his prices with the prices
of others, at price lower than other
merchants are making for the same
goods. He thus, by inviting competi-
ton, helps to lower prices.
Then, again, the merchant who
advertises must have something to
offer the man who reads his adver-
tisement. 1t would not do to adver-
tise an "rticle of a good quality and
then show the customer an inferior
article. Therefore, in order to keep
up the advertising method Of doing
business, it is necessary that the
merchant who advertises, not only
sell little cheaper, but that he Of
fer little better article than the
man who does not advertise. He
opens his goods to the public gaze, so
to speak, and they must stand in.
speetion while the man who does not
advertise hides his goods in a back
room and undertakes to sell them at
a price then for the first time made
known, and when there can be no
comparison of prices and goods. Be-
sides this, the merchant who adver-
tises does so much more. business
than the one who does not advertise
that by constantly re-buying his
stock of goods.is always newer, more
up-to-d date, and more to be desired.
These are things which the people
who buy should consider. If you will
read the advertisements in your pap
er and then compare the goods of the
merchants who advertise with the
goods Of those who do not advertise,
we are willing to wager that you will
6nd that we have correctly diagnosed
the two cases.
