A" GOLD BRICK always looEs goo3. It has to. Its promising appearance is it sole virtue. Looks alone will not sell goods today. Merchandise with a name the name of its maker has the call. For onfy the maker of worthy goods can long afford to advertise. At the HigK Court of Public Opinion any other sort is soon condemned. Wise merchants and manufacturers see the good papers to tell the story of their wares. The publishers seek the reputable advertising for the readers' guidance. Hie well-informed buyer seeks news of good merchandise through the columns of the home paper. This proves the vr.Iue of advertising. Neither advertiser nor publisher can prosper without your patronage. Therefore, it i to their advantage to cater to you. They do it, too. And it is distinctlv to vour a'd vantage to be guided by the message they lay before you the advertisements. Read them regularly!
