Advertising: benefits the consumer ?most of all. Advertised goods are trade marked to protect the consumer for quality and quantity. Think of the infinite variety* ef I prepared foods, from which the srreait er part of a wholesome meal may be prepared with almost no work for the housewife. Think of the household conveniences and business conveniences?the time savers in your office or home? the accessories which make your automobile a greater pleasure. j All of these things are rather intricate. It would cost a small fortune to prepare a few of them for private use. I How do you suppose tl>e man who first thought of these things was able to make them for you at a price you could afford to pay? It was through' advertising?of course. Advertising organizes cooperative buying units. The man with a new idea knows that he can tell thousands or millions of people about his idea through advertising. He knows that the unied buying power of .-all these people will enable him to nfvi/liiAA ? x" ? * * f?vuuvg aio luca in practical iorm all a cost which is only a fraction of what the first article would cost. One of the beet examples of how this is done is Eskimo Pie. Within six months after the inventor first had his idea, everybody in the Unittfd States knew about these delicious new chocolate covered ica cream bars. This was a spectacular demonstration of how advertising can bring a new idea to the whole American public. But in every advertising success, the same principle holds true. But advertising does more than introduces new ideas to you. It safeguards you in the purchase of any ad. vertised product. You can depend upon it?nothing can succeed through advertising unless the article itself has merit. Advertising a bad product will make just as many enemies for that product as advertising a good product will make friends , for the good product. And so, If an article has been whlbly advertised for a long time, you can lx ?_ ? >n auic tu? k is gooa or ine public would never have supported it. Yotf know that the advertised and trademarked product moat have a definite quality?and be fully worth the price. Yqjj.?An be sure that you (get neore real value in an advertised product for evfry penny ypu spend, than you will tnl an unadvertised product, because advertising ie the cheapest selMagmethod there is. You know the advantages of co-operative buying. You have heard a lot about the idea in the last two or three years. You belong te a aaapetativ buying society every time you buy an advertised product. Read advertising products. It id the MMt vray t? be certain of satisfaction and money'a worth. '' % J- JH'U i II I I II 1 I If i Look at the label on your paper. ' a ? .

State* to Bgypt, calling upon Kio Faud, addressed him as the tint ii dependent rater of Egypt in 2,0C years. After this formal introdw tion, the American diplomat went o to say that diplomacy had entere upon a new stage; duplicity and sut terfuge are no longer countenance* he declared; honesty and sincerit have taken their place. Previous to Egypt's entry into tfa family of independent nations, whi! she was under British control, th United States never had a ministc on the Nile; Washington was reprt sen ted by consular officers only. Bv soon after Egypt became independec a minister plenipotentiary was ai pointed in the person of Dr. J. Mot ton Howell. Dr. Howell ment King Faud at Ra; * el-Tin Palace with much v formalit; He was escorted by a detachment c the royal body guard, and attende by the grand chamberlain. Refet ring to the new diplofacy the Ameri can minister said: "Your majesty is to be couvratu lated upon the fact that there hav been born new ideas and conception of diplomacy within t he last decade The most favored and powerful na tions of the world today recogniz that diplomacy no longer means du plicity and subterfuge, but that 'yes means 'yes' and 'no' means 'no.' Tha which is true of the law governing the rights and practices of one indi visual towards another, or a coUec tion of individuals towards anotbei collection of individuals must in t very large measure, be likewise trut of nations in their intercourse witt one another. "If these methods are followed, at I am sure your majesty intends that they be followed, continuous pros perity and contentment will blesi your reigh, and your majesty wil be a lasting benediction to the peopli of your majecty's kingdom. "Apropos of these changed idea: in the matter of diplomacy, the words of the chief executive of the Unitec States seems timely. He said: 'Who ever tries to peer through the vei and percieve the issues and events o the future, must be moved to verj earnest supplication that sincerity, simplicity, straightforwardness, mor ul courage and high honor shall Is the square and compass, the plum met and lever, by which to shape th conduct and aims of man.'" u:- -i? ? aiic ivui^ in mn rofiij exproweu ni pleasure at receivnig an America] minister, and assured Dr. Howell o his support and the co-operation o his government in the developmen of good relations between the tw< I nations. i . ? w ?
