Rubber heels now are on (id out of each 100 pairs of fihoes worn by men. Such is the estimate going the rounds hi the shoe industry. '.. It is not surprising, if you have noticod how many men wear rubber heels. Hut maybe you remember back only 41 few years when rubber heels were unusual, f What brought them into popularity? .. The nnswer is Advertising. Three-fourths of the rubber heels sold are for men's fchoes. This is liecause most of the advertising has been directed at men. One of; these days some wise manufacturer of rubber heels will ' notice this. Then he'll call in the advertising man and his staff of writers and artists. Campaigns will follow. And soon women will be wear-inn- inst ns limnv lubber reels as men. ' It's all a matter of advertising the most powerful force j im the sale of goods., ' , , Our present standard, of living is Jargely the creutimi of advertising. For advertising creates the demand, makes ' people want the thing ndvertised. When the lure becomes powerful enough, they hustle about and get the money to olrtain what they want. Advertising thus spurs sales. It also stimulates pro ductionboth of the things advertised and the things that have. to le done on a bigger scale to obtain money for pur chasing advertising wares. There is a new thought for you that advertising is a definite agency Of production. ' Most of us have lie.fn think ing of it merely as a medium of salesmanship. Advertising is what is making us buy. Advertising is what is enabling us to buy. It creates the demand. And the "demand induces us to work harder to get the money to spend. If all advertising were abruptly discontinued the American standard of liv- ing would quickly drop to the levels of grandpa's day. Read the ads. They are a part of the news, telling the intimate story of the average American's inner desires. 1'he "N!nl history of civilization is written in ads.

Economy is that elusive little bird that every on? is chasing but never can seem to catch, merely be-1' cause they do not understand the proper pursuit. Economy does not mean a saving through buying cheap merchandise; that is where many people mako their greatest mistake. They do not realize that cheap merchandise, although bought at about 50 per eent less than the better qualities, only lasts about one-thiid as long. Is it economy then, to pay Seventy-five Dollars for thrue identical articles in order to obtain the sen-ice that would be obtained through the purchase of one Fifty Dollar article?
