"Good As Gold" Every day of your life you exchange real money for certain produces or .services that you believe are "good as gold." '' v; You must have confidence in their merit or your exchange is a gamble; a blind horse-trade that may mean loss. The products you know best the articles that represent the greatest valueare usually the prod ucts you have seen advertised. Only honest products can thrive in the light of publicity. The honest dealer advertises his faith in his products to the world. Read the advertisements and buy advertised prod ucts. There is no other way to get more "good for your gold"!
