Advertised products familiar faces that you find in your living-room, bedroom, bath, kitchen, garage and yard. Long association with them has proved their "friendship" to be valuable. The advertisements are little intimate word pic tures of these "commercial friends." Advertisements tell you how they are made, what they arc doing, and how and where to get them. As a general rule, there is nothing familiar or "friendly" about the appearance of an unadvev tised product. You seldom sec it in the paper the stores or even in homes.
