human purpose. So the mer-
chant waits till the busy sea-
son comes and his store is so
full of customers he can't get
his hat off, and then he
rushes to his printer and
goes in for plenty of adver-
tising.
When the dull season gets
along and there is no trade
and he wants to sell his
goods so badly he can't pay
his rent, he stops advertising.
That is, some of them do,
but occasionally a level
headed merchant does more

business while his neighbors
are making mortgages to pay
the gas bill.
There are times when you
could not stop people from
buying everything in the
store if you planted a cannon
behind. the door, and that's
the time the advertisement
is sent out upon its mission.
1t makes light work for the
advertising, for a chalk sign
on the sidewalk could do all
that was needed and have a
half-holiday six days in the
week; but who wants to fav

are built to do hard work,

dull days when a customer
has to be knocked down
with hard facts, and kicked
insensible with bankrupt re-
ductions and dragged in with
irresistible slaughter of the
prices and other inducements
before he will spend a cent.
That's the aim, and end of
advertising, my son, and if
you ever open a store don't
try to get them to come
when they are already stick
ing out of the windows, but
give them your advertise
ments right between the eyes

will wax rich and own a fast
horse, and perhaps be able
to smoke a good cigar once

CHEERFULNESS

Cheerfulness is a most enviable possession

HOLD EVERYTHING

Fifty years ago women wore hoop skirts,
bustles petty-coats, corsets, cotton stocking
high button shoes, ruffed cotton drawers, flan-
mel nightgowns puffs in their hair They
did their cooking, clea ing washing,
ironing, raised big families went to
church on Sunday, and were too busy to be sick.
Men wore whiskers square hats, red flan-
mel underwear, chopped wood for stoves, drank
1O-cent whiskey and scent beer, rode buggies,
went in for politics, worked II hours day and
lived to aripe old age.
Stores burned oil lamps, carried every
thing from a needle to plow, trusted every
body and always made money
Today women wear silk stockings, an
ounce of underwear, smoke, paint, pow er
drink cocktails, and go in for politics.
Men have high blood pressure, wear no
hats (and some no hair), shave their whiskers,
drink poison ride in airplanes, never go to bed
the same day they get up, work five hours
day, and die young.
Stores have electric lights, never what
customer wants, trust nobody, have overhead,
markup, markdown, annual and semi-annual
end-of-month, dollar day economy day sales,
and never make money.

With six per cent tariff on copper Ar-

unthinkable that our United States law makers
