No nephew or neice fancies aunts,
And a cow never blows her own horn.
A cat cannot parse its own daws.

Everybody who reads a newspaper be
comes familiar with the business houses
whose names appears in it, and naturally
they go themselves and send others to the
places they know about, instead of hunting
up others they never heard of. Merchants
who advertise, make many warm friends
through the column of a newspaper as their
names become familiar household words;
those on the contrary who depend on casual
custcmeis who pass the doors, generally get
left.
