ECONOMY is not only a matter Of saving. 1t consists

often add materially to the effectiveness f your purchasesby
reading the advertisements in this paper.
Advertising Identifies goods Of unquestioned value. When
a store OF a manufacturer puts his name on product and tells
you about it, you may rest ssued that it is worth while.
It does not pay to advertise merchandise that is not sound
The comebacks are too &C silly.

as news from the business world, published for y~1r ben.6t.
Sometimes, they keep you from m, Ling ant wise purchase
