Because it haslbeen the habit of some merchants to look upon it as an expense, a. wrong view has been gained. Perhaps the_=misconception arose from the fact that in bookkeeping it has been the habit to charge advertising to iexpense. Adver- tising produces new business-it swells the vol- ume of [business and prot-therefore it is an investment. Only the man who looks upon ad- vertising as an expense, who is afraid of it, prejudiced against it, loses money in advertising. The` man who treats `advertising as an invest- ' ment and gives it the attention an investment requires--knows that everyjldollar rightly in- vested in this direction yields compound inter- est--and more. \ il\ilI|iIf.',lI. \Hlll'l'l I British (`:1\'n11'_\'_ docl:u'os the (`Inna-3 zon1so1\'e.~; ": ' aunl that tl1(-1'0` n`i_;'z1(lo in tho (`01'ps] ...n..._ l.l..-l.|u- I An Investment L.O.L.
