The efforts of business and the government to control
prices will prove completely ineffectual if this trend continues.
In some lines, of which retail nierehamlising is perhaps the most
outstanding, prices have beer, held down for the reason that
business has taken smaller profits. That cannot go on indefinite
ly, in the fact of the wage trend.
If we are to have an upward wage spiral, we must have, an
upward price spiral with it. If we are to place a workable ceil

TIME TO QUIT ADVERTISING.
A well established journal in 18.98 requested a number of its
largest advertisers to give their opinions concerning the best
time to stop advertising, and the following replies were receiv
ed. The best time to quit adevrtising is—“ When the population
ceases to multiply, and the generations that crowd on after you
and never heard of you, stop coming on.
‘ When you have convinced everybody whose life will touch
yours that you have better goods and lower prices than they can
get anywhere else.
“ When you perceive it to be the rub- that men who never
ailvertise arc outstripping their neighbors in the same line of
business.
When you can forget the words of the shrewdest and most
successful men concerning the main cause of their prosperity.
“ When every man has become so thoroughly a creature of
habit that he will certainly buy this year where he bought last
year.
*'W hen younger and fresher houses in your line cease start
ing up and using newspapers in telling the people how much
better they can do for them than you can.
“ When you would rather have your own way and fail than
tgke advice and win.”
