If you wish to run your business
So that profits will accrue,

Comeat once to trade with you
If you would convince the people
Os your business enterprise,
There is but one way to do it—
Just start in and advertise.
Advertise that all may'know you,
That your fame will oft resound—
Be the daily talk of people •
< Everywhere the countiy round.

Into prominence to rise,

Advertising’s potent aid,
They are wise an I you are foolish—

is not equal to him who believes in it.

One advantage an ad possesses is that
it never has an impediment in its speech.
Advertising is a honeyoomb, which
holds in it the sweets of business suc
cess.

The most expensive advertising is
frequently that which it costs least to
insert.

A business without an advertise

Bull time advertising pays, because
some people are buying all the time, and
they are more likely to buy of the man
who advertises than of the man who
doesn’t.

The Knox hat is the correct thing for
the well-dressed man. There is no pret

J. Kuttner has a very attractive adver

Attractive in its rich offerings of bar

The Rome China and Stove company

Lanham & Sons are not only progres

six stores just across the the
Fourth Ward will convince the most
skeptical.

There is nothing in the drug line or that

‘ ‘The Dutchess’ ’ trousers are of the
never rip variety. The guarantee that
goes with every pair is assurance of their

Bass Bros. & Co’s, advertisements are
always very readable, because they are
of literary merit and always offer the
buying public something new and choice.
There immense store is packed with
rare bargains from every quarter of the
world. See their offerings, and prices.
That will clinch the argument.
** * '
In this age of advancement one hrs
so many things to remember. When a
man reads your first and only ad, it may
strike him in a favorable way. But alas!
how prone is the human mind to forget.
For most probably when he is in need
of the article advertised by you, he has
entirely forgotten your existence. A
constant ad is a constant reminder,
while one ad is but the corner stone of
a future trade.
» * *
The more one knows hbout an article
the able he should be to write the
advertisement. Too often, however, it is
a fact when an owner of an article does
the advertising that be is so filled with
the advantages, methods of making and
general excellence of his specialty that
he forgets that all pthers are not so well
posted on this particular subject as he;
the result is he does not start at the
foundation in preparing his announoe
•ments, takes too much for granted and
overlooks the points which would prove
most convincing to a purchaser.

s WHISPERINGS OF
The pines, i
Perhaps, you never beard the whis
pers of the pines. No? Then you may
not catch the full beauty of this syl.
van effusion, and for the sake of kindly
feelings and my large and handsome
laziness, you had best turn the sheet
and seek inspiration (or whatever it is
> you need) in those thrilling accounts
of how certain men acd women were
made well and happy by taking only
three bottles of Dr. Curem’a Elixir of
Life. Indeed, tho’, I don’t know that
the pines will whisper for sound,
healthy,sensible people, and it may
be that the medicine is needed most
by those of yoa who have beard the
pines whisper, and sigh, and moan
and sob. For, of course, if your diges
tion is good you do not hear the whis
pers and sighs and moans and sobs,
and you don’t believe there are any,
and for years and years you might be
among them apd all they would sug
gest to you would be the price of
pine. But let your constitution be
such as described in the patent medi
cine advertisements (black specks be
fore the eyes, pain in the back, head
ache, dizziness or simply that tired
feeling—(l fear my case is chronic)
and I fear you would hear those
things in the rustling of the pines or
anywhere else for that matter. The
song the pine sings depends more
on the liver than the wind, it seems,
and queer and fanciful are the arias
and the lullabies.
Whether it was a ten mile tramp cr
fried ham for supper that caused it,
1 don’t know, but as I failed to take
the tramp (owing to my chronic mal
ady) I guess it must have been the
ham. lam sure I ate nothing else
much; tho’it might have been those
onions or the chicken or the cheese or
eoffee (but 1 took only two cups and
just a little over) or the custard or
maybe that cake, or —but I think not.
It must have been something I had
for breakfast or dinner. Whatever the
exciting cause, I found myself a few
nights ago, tossing about on the bed
unable to sleep. It was a beautiful
night. The moon shone full and mel
low, and the air stirred only enough
to keep awake the pines. I got up and
looked out, drew back the curtain and
went back to bed. Now anybody in ;
good health would after looking
out "upon such beautiful moonlight
and hearing the song of the pines,
would turn over and go to sleep, or
perhaps at worst simply indulge in a
tender memory or two, which is per
fectly allowable under such circum
stances provided you say nothing
about it and laugh at such sentiment
ality when talking to your friends.
