.What
products-
ive your
ife new
ease
would your life be without advertised
1 Imagine your home stripped of curtains, glass,
paint, magazines, telephones, phonographs. Your
table set without pepper, salt, sugar everything
except home-prepared foods.
Your life would seem both hard and drab. You
would have little comfort or convenience; know
nothing of the means to secure them. Unhelped,
your own ingenuities would tend to limit your pace.
You would progress by limps instead of leaps. You
might not progress at all. -
Advertisements sweep you on to enjoyments.
Read them. Know about advertised products. They
give your life new ease.
Pin your faith to advertised products they arc
worthy of your confidence.
