You insure against such contingencies as fire, shipping disaster, dishonest < employes, etc., as a matter of course, but the moment some one mentions advertising as a business-builder for your particular beneath you immediately begin to"hedge" and vow that you can not afford sucb an expensive Inxury, etc., etc., Have you ever thought that the ijreatest of all calamities?1033 of trade?can te insured against? The "premium" represented by the cost of advertising is, in proportion to the importance of the security afforded, uo higher than other insurances: in fact, it is considerably smaller and soon becomes a miuus quality. Any , other kind of insurance is an expense; worse than that?it is a dead loss so 1 lorg as tbeie is no "claim." But the insurauce of trade represenled by advertising carries a direct , profit with i?. It covers not only the rii-k of losing trade, but also the minor ri>k of being compelled by competition to carry on business at a diminishing profit. IMi.w. *Ka "5 r* on ro n no nrominmtj" J.

A considerable proportion of such "premijms" could properly be treated as invested capital,since the good will and assured maintenance of demand is a tangible and salable asset. Think it over?you who have been accustomed to regard advertising as so much blue sky and hot air. Read thoroughly practicable business, prop* osition and should be considered in no other light.
