has clvcn the results of his experience
In these words: "In mlvi-rtlsliiK, ns lu
everything else, perslsteucy will win.
I've tried It I know II. There Is not
an article of any merit whatever that
cannot bo Hold through advertising and
tnko tlio Held over products that arc not
advertised."
A Chicago merchant of experience
places moru stress on tho constancy of
thu advertiser thiiu on the striking
character of tho advertisement. Ho
declares that "the 'ad.' that Is always
ou tho tiring Hue, through thick and
thin. In season and out of season, Is the
'ad.' that will win Its share In tho divis
ion of trade. The 'ad.' that Is run at In
tervals must enter the lists each time
is a new competitor."
In all Its all-pervadhg Influence ltd-
vertlslug seems to be like t.io trusts,
which, according to Mr. Hryan, "wo en
rounter from tho cradle to t n grave."
Certainly publicity promotes tho sale of
fvcry commodity for which man has
aio during his lifetime; but Its power
is a stimulator of dcuviml Is not limit

A notable evidence of the progress of
newspaper advertising ims uccn pro
vided by tho book publishers. Until
recently theso publishers, llko some oth
er business men, considered that 'I was
essential to their dignity to avoid any
thing striking In tho wording and tho
tjpo of their advertisements, nnd In
deed, to advertise only lu a vory lim
ited way. All the publishers and koiko
bankers, Insurance) men and others
havo discovered that to do tho largest
amount of business It Is necessary to
do a largo amount of nowspapcr adver
tising, and to word their "mis." so as to
trrest attention.
