When you pick up your morning or afternoon newspaper and glance over the advertising you quite unconsciously multiply yourself a thousand times. In half or three-quarters of an hour you can, metaphorically speaking, visit every progressive store in town. You virtually poke your head into every department of every department store. You run into the florist's, the oculist's, the leading groceries, banks, theaters, all the various places that supply the things that make this the twentieth century and life worth the living. Here is a greater choice in clothing, food, furniture, books, pictures, musical instruments, travel, entertainment, opportunities of investment, the service of public utility corporations than any monarch o( old could command. It would easily take a thousand yous, traveling hard all day, to find out for yourself what the advertisements tell you in a few minutes morning or evening. They deserve your attention. They deserve your confidence. Without them, without the progressive spirit of the merchant and manufacturers who back them, the great abundance of things you now enjoy would be a memory or something still to be realized. Without advertising the prices you would have to pay for many of the necessities you now buy for a few pennies would make a dollar look like a snow ball on the kitchen range. Read the advertisements. Read them for your own information and advantage. Read them to encourage the advertisers who are making these better things possible for you.
