....COME AND SEE.... ` , I vertisi BUS]; "Why will people persist in buying of peddlers and fakirs ! Why. indeed ! Because the peddler or fakir knows the article he has to sell. He knows its good points and tells them. if he ' is selling a patent soap, he tells what that soap is good for. and tells why it is better than other soa . If its a patent whistle or a to balloon, he tells why it's _ tter than those shown be- fore. e handles his subject as though 3: were worth handling. In fact, he does just what many advertisers fail to do. He goes into his subject understandingly, enthusiastically, and one of the reasons he succeeds, is because the buyer. knows from the start that the pedlar means business. Don't borrow all the ideas of the fakir, though._ He_has bad ones. In his enthusiasm he fre- quently overestimftes the qualities of his wares. If he expected to come that way again, he would probably be more careful. The business man expects to meet his customers again. He wants his goods and his advertisements to show their relation to one another.` The man who can extract the good points from the fakir s methods and eliminate the bad, has a start that will land him safely on the successful side __of commercial life.

It would be absurd to any that Re- forrners are naturally more prone to election wrong.doin than `Conserve- tivel; the difference in favor of the letter is -due to the fact that the Re- form party has been too long in power. There should have been a house clean- in; long ego, and since that time the disease of corruption has been increas- ing until it has spread to the electorate.
