always classic songs.

Advertising is called by
some an art.
If it be an art it is the art
of telling a story simply and
convincingly.
Nobody knows more
about the strong qualities
of an establishment than
the proprietor who oversees
it. Other things being
equal, nobody should be
able to write more convinc
ingly of the articles he of
fers for sale.
In a atore where the employer sells
goods side by side with his clerics it is
me that ths employer will not be the
best salesman.
The reason is simple. He
knows the goods from A to
Z. He probably has pur
chased them. He knows
his aims. His arguments
cany weight because they
are convincing.
The same arguments pre
sented in the same way,
with the same enthusiastic
spirit, the same knowledge
of detail, would attract
new customers if presented
through the advertising col
umns of this paper.
If yon have not tried it,
why not begin?
If von have tried it and are not aatia-
fiad, let tu know about it
HaaetNill at Limestone.
