(By HERBERT KAIFJIAX.) Advertising Isn't magic. There is no element of the black art about it. In its best and highest form it is plain talk, anne talk selling talk. Its results are in proportion to the merits of the subject advertised and ability with which the advertising is done. , - There are two great enemies to advertising profits, and both of them are caused by ignorance of real functions and workings of publicity. The one is to advertise promise which will not be fulfilled, be cause all that advertising can do when it accomplishes most, is to in fluence the reader of your copy to Investigate your claims. ' If yen promise the earth and deliver the moon advertising will not pay yon. If you draw men and women to your store on pretense and fall to make good, advertising will have harmed you, because it has only drawn attention to the fact that you are to be avoided. It is as unjust to charge your neighbor to rob a bank and find your self Indicted for his misdeed. In brief, advertised dishonesty is even more profitless than unexploited deception. The other great error in advertising is to expect more out of ad vertising than there is in it. Advertising is seed which a merchant plants In the confidence of the community. He must allow time for it to grow. Every successful advertiser has to be patient. The time that it takes to arrive at re sults rests entirely with the ability and determination you display in the effort. But you can not turn back when you have traveled half way and declare that the path is wrong. You can't advertise for a week and because your store Isn't crowded say it hasn't paid you. It takes a certain period to attract the attention of readers. Everybody doesn't see what you print the first time it appears. More will notice your copy the second day, a great many more at the end of a month. You can not expect to win the confidence of the community to the same degree that other men have obtained it without taking pretty much the same length of time that they did. But you can cut short the period between your introduction to your reader and his intro duction to your counters by spending more effort in preparing your copy and displaying a greater amount of convincingness. You musn't act like the little girl who planted a garden and came out the next day expecting to find it in full bloom. Her father had to explain to her that plants require roots and that, although she could not see what was going on, the seeds were doing their most Im portant work Just before the flowers showed above ground. , So advertising is doing its most important work before the big re sults eventuate, and to abandon the money which has been invested just before results arrive is not only foolish but childish. It would be Just as logical for a farmer to abandon his field because he could not harvest his corn a week after he planted it. Advertising does not require faith merely common sense. If It is begun in doubt and deserted before normal results can be reasonably looked for, the fault does not lie with the newspaper or with pub licity it rests entirely upon the head of the coward who retreated before he was defeated.
