Watched the papers found one : "WANTED Boy for office work. " Went and got the job at once and hustled like a Turk. People who want to change their position in , life must advertise or answer -someone's advertisement. A newspaper advertisement is the most reliable. Et is based upon facts and there is a man at both ends of the string in every case. The newspaper leads them together and a profitable ieal is made for both parties. . People are mis-fits , or the articles they are trying to use are mis-fit for the service required in many cases , because they work at a disadvantage for want of a cor rect occupation for the ability of the person , or a driving horse is hitched onto a plow , while nearby a neighbor is trying to drive a plow horse. A suitable trade would benefit both parties and animals. Advertise for what you want and save money ; save time and get into the right channel. Success is sure to follow. " \ .
