X r. Thig is an age of advertising, and everyone i s familiar with the popu lar saying. ’ It pays to advertise.” Advertising is a tfusiness force. So potent is the charm cast by its spell it has been known to perform marvelous feats and to accomplisri phenomena) results. It cannot be truly said, however, that everyone who advertises suc ceeds, for unless full value under lays the article’ advertised, the ad vertising would ultimately fail of Its own^welght.. In this connection we must not- forget the words of the immortal Lincoln who eaid: "You ran fool some of the people all the time, you can fool all of the pebple some of the time, but you cannot foo) all of the people all of the time.” so If there is not behind every ad vertisement a dollars and cents val ue to the article advertised no amount of advertising will stimulate theygale on such an article beyond a certain point. This applies to ev ery line of business, and the mod ern business man or firm ran only succeed through honest advertising and fair dealing. One of the most successful ad vertisers in America today is L. T. Cooper, the manufacturer of the new medicine, Tanlac. , On one occasion Mr. Cooper said: “Hot air will put a balloon up. but it won’t keep it thfre.” When I offered Tanlac to the world something over a year ago, I did so with the .firm convic tion that I was offering to the peo ple the best and purest products <t1 s tp kind on the American market to day and I did not hesitate to expend vast sums for advertising because 1 knew the more the people knew about it the mere they would buy it. The success of the preparation was immediate’ and the people ev erywhere were guick to recognize its genuine merit and wonderful curative powers. I have never claim ed Tanlac to be a “cure all” or that it would perform unheard of wond ers, but I stated facts; stated them in a straight forward and business like \tay and in a manner that has commanded_ confidence in the cofs servative claims set forth. Underlying these claims has been ;eal value not from dollars and cents'point alone, but from health as well. The phenomenal success the preparation has now achieved ^ 'amiliar to everyone. No matter where you go Tanlac is a household word. It h£» brought . a new ro mance to the modern ‘business world. It is a story of an acceptance and appreciation of merit, never before obtained by a proprietary medicine. Conservative business men. to whom the at'ual figures of the production cf Tanlac Kave been presented, have scouted them until the proof was shown. The production of Tanlac no stands at the rate of almost 5."'»<V 000 bottles per year, or to be more -orrect 4 SoO.OOO. The sale of 1.- (JOO.OOO bottles during the first nin* months probably exceeded any -e.- nrd *ver before made by a proprh*- iry medicine. Through the Atlanta office alon* ‘.pproxlmateljr ,400.0.00 bottles ha\ ■ been sold and distributed since De cember 1st, and the South alone no.v requires over 1,000,000 bottles p>: year. TuOse enormous sales mean byt one thing, and that is merit. Ore bottle is sold in a neighborhood hrough advertising, but ten me* ire sold after the first bottle pn^ luces results. People are alwa-? x tiling to tell about their ailment hu» they are more than willing *< •ell others of any medicine th;it helns them. It Is something tb^y 'an’t keep to themselves, because ‘hr impulse to sympathize wlth frl- w sufferers and want to hejp th*:i one of the ftrnngrjit as well -i.- ■***e of the biggest things in human nature. , “* Tanlac. the master medicine is eld by Johfl M.

Automobile Demand Will Exceed Supply Toledo, O., May 28.—"Unless I am greatly mistaken, the demand t for automobiles this summer will be far in excess of the supply, notwith standing the/act that this year’s pro duction of motor cars will be the largest in the history of the indus try.” The above statement was made by John N. Willys, president of Thy Wlllys-Gverland Company, who hafs just .returned to Toledo from his j winter home in Pasadena, Calif. Mr. Willys spenf several weekg^ on the coast and although he went there ostensibly for a rest be could not re sist the temptation of investigating business conditions at first hand. ‘‘My reason for predicting a short age Of cars this year ip based on in formation that 1 have been able to gather from Overland dealers and from my own personal observations of conditions as they exist in live west.” stated Mj. Willys. "On ev ery hand could l>e seen evidences of Increased prosperity and if this pros perity is indicative 1 of • conditions throughout the country my advice to prospective car buyers is to shop early. 1 firmly believe that the rush for ,ar s this sunin.e? will surpass that of the last tlitce years combin ed. “Without exception, every one of the Overland and Willys-Knight dealers that I interviewed had the same , story to tell. Business had been good, in fact they ciatme 1 it had never been better due largely to the general wave of prosperity and to the fact that manufactu r ecs have catered to a larger ma;k» t by bling lighter, more economical end lower priced cars of which the Overland Model 73 is another example. "When I explained to them that the factory was shipping on an ov erage, (jf over 800 cars a day, which is three times the number shippel at this* time a year ago; they had to admit that we were doing our share toward meeting the emergency. “People in all walks of life seem to haxe axvakened to the necessity of the motor car. Business men have found it a necessary adjunct in their different lines of endeavor and no other -vehicle of transportation af fords as much pleasure and enjoy ment for the whole family as does the smooth running, distance defy ing automobile. “I believe this combination of ne- .essitv and all-round pleasure-giving qur.iiti**s is chiefly responsible for the pn >*nt day demand for automobiles. Even though money is plentiful and repotts show the country to tie in a wonderfully prosperous condition, 1 do. not believe the vast number of cars now being sold would be ptftsi- ble. had it not beet) for the public awakening to the fact that they nee!*sl them instead of wanted them."
