Sawyer-Holmes Merc. Co. "If I Had Only Known" TWO women went out to buy a certain expensive labor saving device for the home. . One was greatly disappointed when, a few days later, they compared notes. She had bought the same, product that many of her friends had owned. The other woman had secured a greatly improved, new product costing less, but of much more value. "If I had only known there was a better one," the first woman said, "I would never have bought this old one." "I had just read about it in an advertisement," ex plained the wise buyer. ., Eveiy day you miss good news of an improvement in different articles of merchandise unless you read the advertisements. They tell you of practically every worth while invention of every progress from the old to the new. " Read the advertisements regularly. Know all about the things j'ou are going to buy before you buy it. It will save you disappointment, money and time. The better a product is the sooner you'll see it in an advertisement 1 I I. 11 I I I 41 rilONK MAIN 17 11 Mill 1 104 Adams 1 i.iiiij;iiji
