Two similar articles, one advertised and one unadvertised. were plac ed on sale in 1 00 stores. No attempt was made by store clerks to influence the decisions of customers. It was found that 87 per cent of the time the customer bought the advertised article, six per cent of the time he bought the unadvertised stuff, and the rest of the time he had no preference. Even when the un advertised article was priced lower, the customer bought the ad vertised stuff 60 per cent of the time, and only 24 per cent of the time would he buy the unadvertised goods. A demonstra tion like that reveals the mental tendencies of people in the pur chase of commodities. They are governed to a large extent by some previous impression lodged in the back of their minds. That impression is often vague, but in the lack of some definite preference it is enough to determine their choice. Somewhere back in their consciousness something told these people that they had heard before of the advertised goods, while the unadver tised ones were not known to them, so they bought the known stuff even if it cost more. Apparently this test related to goods advertised nationally through magazines and newspapers. But the same principles should hold good in the way the public make their choices in retail trade. Some people will trade at certain stores because the location is convenient, or because of a friend ship for the proprietor or some clerk. But there is a big element who are governed in their choices of places to trade; by impulses similar to those that influenced the test repprted above. Some thing in the back of their heads told them that they would do well to trade at the advertised stores. ;- p - It is commonly felt that the Oriental nations are behind us in! civilization. Yet while many of our people spent New Year's eve in eating too much, the people of China and Japan are carry ' ing out their traditional custom of paying up all debts. It, would be a woryjerful thing fur our country if all debts could be cleared up at New Years after the Oriental fashion. The expense of do ing business would be less, and merchants would order more goods, and the stimulus of new prosperity would spread over the land. These Oriental countries make much of the New Year in' other ways. In China the custom of making calls, which has largely disappeared here, still prevails. New Years is considered also as everyone's birthday. Peoplo compute their age, not from the actual date of birth, but from January 1 of the year in which they were born. It is well to place this importance on a new period of time, and not let one year slip into another as if the flight of the days had no significance. o - While it is good policy for people to buy substantial mer chandise, the people who think they must have always the best :hings, are likely to run behindhand and complain of high prices. In spite of all that has been said urging people to buy the less expensive cuts of meat, there are many people of very limited incomes who can not adjust themselves to the idea of us ing anything but the most costly cuts. The cheap textile fabric may wear out so soon that it is really costly. The inexpensive cut of meat, if skillfully cooked, will have equal nutritive value and be just as appetizing. ' We notice the bill collectors are not slow in getting after delinquents at this time of year. But, after all, this is good busi ness. 0 'Well, the New Year is starting off like an old hand at the business. - Don't forget, write it with a HAVE TO TRIED IT YET?"
