Exchange.
A Hickman woman remarked the
other day that one of. the most in
teresting things in the newspapers to
her are the advertising columns,
'Long ago," she says, "I quit buy
ing of those who do not advertise. It
always seems to me that the mer
chant who advertises invites me to
trade with him, while one who does
not advertise impresses me with the
idea that he doesn't care for it.
Then, too, I notice that the mer
chant who advertises has fresher
goods, for the reason I suppose he
sells more."
