How has it bi-iMJ with you in a business wavV Arc you ( | tiite satisfied with the years business ? H.ue von omitted nothing tliat would have increased your sales * ' You know your business hotter than we , but even a layman , as it were , can discover something iroin observation. In this atfe the strtitftfle for success is made easier for the merchant who first discovers a , , 'oocl article , puts it in stock , and then lets the buying public know about itArc you a clothing merchant ? In your line of bus iness docs not that wholesale merchant who has a good article and who advertises it most exten sively do the largest volume of business. 'Pake the Karpen leather fur niture for instance ; it was a very small institution at first. The proprietor made it a rule to sell onh the highest class leather fur niture and to put one half his profit in advertising. Today this furniture is advertised in every magazine and pediodical in the world , and he pays for such adver tising from $250 to $5,000 a page. What is the result ? Kvcry fur niture dealer in the world is struggling to get the agency in his locality for this furniture. Why ? Hecause it is the best of its kind and its maker has brought such fact to the attention of the buying public. Many a merchant who has suf ficient confidence in his wares to believe that he could sell more of Uiem if he could personally in terview more of the people who need them , hesitates to do his talking through the advertising columns because it costs more than talking across the counter. But the newspaper "ad" reaches more prospective customers in one day than the merchant can reach personally in a year ; it gives him the advantage of doing all the talking himself , and it fixes his claim permanently on the minds of his listeners , while oral pleas leave but a Heeling impression. These privileges and powers are well worth pay ing for and they cost little in comparison with the actual casli returns. The proof is to be found in the experience of al successful traders , livery adver tisement that tends to draw traili to the town helps the town t < the extent of the trade so drawn A city with five good advertiser is a < jood city , depend upon that Kansas City is a good , livel place isn't it ? It took five bur dred miles of white paper thru icet wide to print the advertist ments in the two issues of tli Kansas City Star and Times la : Saturday. Enough paper t reach from Palls City to Chicagc Your advertisement should L attractively written and printe in good taste. Good taste is tl cardinal virtue of all good adve rising. A right sense of propo tiou is as essential in the inakin of the right kind of advertisii as is the ability to write got copy. Harmony is an art that eve good ad-smith must master. The principles which gove attractiveness in any other li are too often lacking or suspen c.l in advertising. A slovenly woman is repulsh A clumsily constructed house unlovely. A picture lacking proper pi portion and harmony of color an abomination. An advertisement thrown ca lessly together , crowded , lacki sunmetn and nratncvs.is a wastt I of good money. [ If vou could get two thousand Richardson county people to read ail attractively built ad tclliutr your business inducements for the week , do you not think it would stimulate your business somewhat. Ifyoudosa believe why not follow your judgment ? Try The Tribune's trenchant trade teasers. We build them to your order and guarantee the results. Pancake Hour , maple syrup at Harlow's.
