No merchant ever failed becaues of the money he spent for adveritsing, but the business history of this country is filled with instances of men who have made brilliant successes in business by means | of advertising. A well written advertisement in the columns of a local newspaper is an invitation to every reader ! of the paper to visit the store and see the mer- | chandise displayed there. A well written advertisement interests and creates desire. ' Desire once created, it is but a step until the purchase is made. A well written advertisement is the best employee any merchant can put on his pay roll. An advertisement to be effective must be buckc(!' by good merchandise, an attractive store, the right | price and modern mercandising methods. | This combination will build business for any| merchant who undertakes it ‘seriously and gives it intelligent thought and effort attracts auenuon,} | t.
