[ can stand your absemnce better, I can show a tranquil brow. if you'll promise me a letter every week, and keep your vow.” “You I told her, “do not fret your heart, I beg; I will write or sprain a <houlder.

The men who were boys when you were a boy will remember an old advertisement that used to be headed, “Get lots of mail.” The advertisement appealed to the desire of every boy (is it boys only?) to get mail. You sent ten cents and were placed on the“mailing list of a mail order house. You got mail. Your name was known to someone in a city. You were not obscure. No person likes to be obscure. To the average man or woman there is a subtle flattery in the receipt of a piece of mail that induces a warm, friendly feeling towards the sender. There are hardly any persons who would like to be so obscure that no merchant ever sent them a booklet—no manufacturer ever sent them a catalog—no one ever con- sidered them as possible buyers of anything. That, of course, is not-the whole secret of the success of direct-by-mail advertising. But it is one reason why good house organs are popular with many customers. It is one reason why wise managers of big industries issue an em- ployees’ newspaper. It is a reason why banks secure any number of savings accounts by good circularizing. If people like you and your goods they will be glad to receive your printing. They will read it with interest if it is well done. 2 . If people are not interested in you or your business, there is all the more reason for getting them to-like you by sending them printing that tells the interesting news about your business, your goods, and your service as it applies to their needs.
