Mr. Beecher would know how to advertise judieioualy— which is what a good many don't know. It is the easiest thing in the world to throw away money in trying to advertise. Letting on just too little steam is no better than none at all.— The dealer who contracts to have his advertisement printed lor a lengthened pepiod, and seldom changes it, does the next thing to nothing at all. at an expenaive rate. It is the frequent, persistent blows that make the breach ; and so it is the frequent advertisement, framed to en- Hat attention, that brings custom. Where advertising has been red need to a system, toe advertiser, changes frequently, pays freely, and never allows his advertisement to become stale. The same song continually sung would ruin the heit of singers. Whoever has tested it never underrates advertising. The weak, sickly timid sdvertising is simply useless expenditure of menev. Tbe gruel never made one fat. Liberal advertising has made more men rich than eoy other one thing.
