DO you ADVERTISE /?

More millions have been mad
from printers ink than any Other
commodity in the worlds history
Not, ofcourse, from its sale as
merchandise but from its use a
a medium between the selling
and the purchasing forces in
trade. The foremost business
houses in America are the
logicalr esultsIof judicious adver-
Using and the free use of printers
ink In acquainting the public
with the products which they
sell.
Whether it be breakfast food
or underwear, rugs or ranges,
aspirin or apricots, hosiery or
hair nets, or indeed any of the
thousand and one thing essential
to modern living the buyer SUBJ
Consciously shows preference for
nationally advertised wares,
There may be equal merit in some
article less known, but the
psychology of printers ink sug-
gests the buying of those things
known to you through advertis-
ing.
Relatively the same rule holds
good in the smaller spheres of
business and to a proportienate
extent the merchant in the towns
may share in the fruits of adj
vertising enjoyed by the great
stores of the cities True thev
cannot par $4,000 for a page in
. single issue of the Saturday
Evening Post. nor can they ex-|
pend millions each year in adj
vertisine as do the Wanamaker,
Stewart and other great stores.
but they can invest an amount
in advertising commensurate
with the volume of their busi-
ness, and as the business grows
in response to such advertisement
the amount would be increased.
TO greater or lesser extent
the local merchant is prone to
hide his mercantile candle under
4 bushel, or snuff it out entirely,
from an advertising point of
view. He is content to drift
along picking up such trade as
,st gravitates his way and
satisfied with the falling crumbs
when he might sit in ar the
feast.
In this day of the survival of
the 6ttest, when competition is
Keen and business is builded on
hustle the advertiser is adding to
the volume of his trade and the
laggard along this line is the
loser.
A Woodstock business man
had a preparation for poultry
He invested small amount in
news paper advertising. AS a.
result sales aggregating over
twenty times the cost of adver-
Using resulted. This is not an
exception. 1t is a we'll known
rule among far seeing business
men that advertising not only
pays, but it pays better than any
investment which they can
make,
Undoubtedly the news paper is
the best paying medium through
which prospective customers may
be reached. Look in the waste
baskets of your local post Offices
and note the hundreds of uno
pened circulars and catalog.
which we're cast away unopened
News paper advertising is the
most economical way by which
merchants may come in contract |
with customers. The family |
paper is read, and the merchants,
message is read.
Get out of the rut and adver-
tise. Keep tab on the results. 1t
will pay You.
