Hob llurdctte, the great, lecturer, prearher and humorist,
always hud a keen understanding of p. nolo in the mass of what
(craid Stitnley l.ce would call "crowd phrenology." 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

"So the merchnnt wails till the Inisv season mines and his

his advertising. That is, some of thi in do: but ofiasion.illy a

gas bill,
"There are times when you cou'dn't stop people from huviug
everything in the store if vou planted a e. union behind the door,
and that's the time the advertisement is sent out on its holy
mission.
"It makes light work for advertising, for chalk siirn on the

In the dull days when n customer has tn he knookcl dmin with

dragged in with irresistible slaughter of prices, before he will

"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.
