ANDERSON DUtribuior in Your daily newspaper is far brighter and more interesting for the advertise ments it contains. You get information from them. You learn all about many little things that are of so much personal importance in your life. They keep you posted. They tell you what is new and desirable. Sometimes they keep you from making an unwise purchase by pointing out just the reasons why one article suits your needs better than another. Reading advertisements helps you to economize. You know that economy is not alone a matter of saving money, but of spending money to advantage. Ad vertising identifies goods of unquestioned value. When a store or manufacturer puts a name on goods and tells you about them you may be sure they are worth while because it does not pay to advertise merchandise that is not good. ,' : ;: - . , Make a practice of reading advertisements. Read them as news from the busi ness world, published for your benefit. TLey will help you to live titter ami dress better Khrl make more of your income in every way.
