When You Become a “Conscious” Reader | of Advertising By ,T. B. HAMILTON Former Advertising Manager of Wsjnannaker’g, Philadelphia j When you learn to read your advertising as you read your dews, the cost of everything you wear or use is going to be lowered for you. If you knew how much mitwy it. takes to soak an idea into your mind subconsciously you Mould be ashamed of your mind, jit actually takes as long as two years sometimes to get you to jthink and say a certain word. It’s like teaching a baby to taf ". * Every known trick of psychology is brought to bear on you. .Advertisers have even been known to print their advertisement upside down, hoping, perhaps, if you had to stand on your |head to read it you might renumber what they say. And what you so often reuj.se to receive with your will the jeamera of your eye records in s|ite of you. Ho that of what jyou buy you buy through advert Ling whether you know it or not. And yet, in the face of all this, the advertising method of jselling things is twenty 'times.'cheaper than any other method known. * , v, , Think how much cheaper stjjl] it would be if you would only (read your advertising consciously instead of buying through it In spite of yourself. ' The merchant who doesn’t advertise hasn't even a chance with the one who does. Your eye is taking photographs every time you turn these pages. You couldn’t get away.jrom these advertisements if you tried. Even the man who claims not to see them at all is record ing them all the time. Every merchant who appears here is telling you his story every day whether you know it or not. All we are trying to do is lo make you conscious readers of advertising instead of subcon sc ous readers. This is being done equally for your benefit and for our*. Everyitime you lookjCor ]jiovrtjsing in this paper instead making it look*for you you bTing down your costof living, you increase the buying power of your money and you get a better duality for the price. This is true because the men who advertise fire always the best merchants. They are the ones who last. The others flicker up for a little while and then go out. That’s the proof. On the other hand, every time we get a hundred more of. fur readers to turn each day with a conscious mind to the adver ising news as well as to the general news, we make this a better fnedium for our advertisers. We give them more for their money because we give them your will. 1 And before we are through every subscriber we have will bo reading his advertising consciously day by day —never fear. For (this is another psychological law. (Copyrighted.)
