As an instance of his ability to apply this insight to business affairs, and In this case to the business of advertising, Postage, a very hclpful publication devoted to dircct-by-niail advertising, rci-cntly submitted the foiluwing: "My son, there is nothing so mystciiously funny as an ad vertisement. "The prime, first, last, and all the time ol.jicl of an adver tisement is to draw custom. It is not, was not, am1, never will be designed for nny other human purpose. "So the merchnnt wails till the Inisv season mines and his store is so full of customers he can't get Ids hat o!f, and then he rushes to Ids printer and goes in for mlvcrtiMug.

"It makes light work for advertising, for chalk siirn on the sidewalk could do all that was needed, and have n half holidav six davs in a week; but who wants to faor an advertisement? "They nre built to do hard work, and should he sent out In the dull days when n customer has tn he knookcl dmin with hard facts and kicked insensible with bankrupt reductions and dragged in with irresistible slaughter of prices, before he will spend a cent. "That's the aim and the end of advertising, my son; and if you ever open a store, don't trv to get them to come when they are already sticking out of the window, but give them your advertisements right between the eyes in the dull season, nnd you will wax rich, and owp a fast horse, and perhaps be able to smoke a rignr once or twice a year.
