There can be no appeal—for this is the High Court of Public Opinion. The wares of the world must appear before you—the product of every factory—the merchandise of every store. Those things that fail to measure tip to your requirements are quickly con demned to oblivion. The manufacturer who advertises deliberately places his mer chandise on trial. He openly courts your critical inspection. He invites comparison. He directs your attention to his goods and then forces those goods to stand on their own merits. * If he were not sure of his wares he would not dare to adver tise. For advertising would put him to a test he could not meet, and thus hasten the end of his business career. It would be busi ness suicide. You can depend on the man who advertises. He KNOWS his product is good. That’s one reason why it pays to read the advertisements you find in this paper. It is through advertising that you are able to keep in touch with the GOOD things that progressive business mep are spending their money to introduce and to keep before you. ’ . • - Base Your Judgment or the Advertisement?,
