F YOU were considering the purchase of stocks and bonds, you'd do a lot of studying before you actually parted with your money! You'd want to know about the company—its policy—its past record. . . . Yet that money represents only your surp}us. Every day you spend money—almost all your earnings—upon the requisites of life. Are you less wise with the greater part of your money than with the smaller share? You can select the daily products you buy as carefully as your most conservative investments. In every store you’ll find products that you know well. Friendly names that have stood for first quality many years. Names oi’ products that millions of people have bought, and bought again and agam. Products that these people. by their steady patronage, have approved from coast to coast. They are the advertised products. They must be full value—first quality, or they couldn’t satisfy so many millions of people year after year! The other products you see are strangers. You don’t know them. Few people do.
