Much Time and Money
have been wasted in a vain endeavor to convince people that there ia
real virtue in Imitations and Substitutes, not alone in the goods them
selves, bat in the methods of selling. In the end the people find out
that it is only a "new slant" to the old game and that any variations
from the established principles of sound business dealing are sure
to result unsatisfactorily. Let your local dealer show you "the Nigger-in-the-wood-pile."
