It may flash upon the scene with brilliance, become the ialk of the hour, and to all appearances be destined to set new records, but un less it is and does what is claimed for it, no amount of printer’s ink and artist’s colors can give it permanence □ □ □ □ □ □ ru Once in a while some article of merchandise will appear to defy this rule, but not for long. Public re sponse, at first, perhaps, quick and active, becomes slower and slower. Sales fall off, and in a few months or a few years, the very name of the product is forgotten. Advertising men know this so well that today the first question upon which they must he satisfied before they will recommend advertising to any manufacturer is—Is the product right ? And merchandise that is right— merchandise that will satisfy in serv ice—merchandise that will bring cus tomers back for another purchase is the first requirement of the jobber and the retailer who expect to endure and flourish. # * # There is no better assurance of this kind of merchandise than an adver tising pledge to the public.
