THIS is a little
heart to heart
talk.

for the business
men of this terri-
tory, for those who
advertise and for
those who ought
to.

Friend, you must make your
customers buy from you MEN.
TALK to them before they purchase in
ACTUALITY.
You must arouse and interest
the mind before you can reach
the pocketbook.
Though pre-
cedes action
Make the FAMILY CIRCLE a
SHOPPING CENTER.
First go
after the money
spent mentally
by the fireside.
Get your sell-
ing story ready
for the psycho-
logical buying
moment. Make
It as attractive as you know how.
Give it a PUNCH. Make every
feature a VITAL FACT. List
the DETAILS. The people want
to know all you have to say.
Tell the WHOLE story.
Ham-
mer your persuasion home. The
results then lie between your
competitor and yourself.

takes you into the homes of the
BUYING class of people. You
can tell your story where it will
do the most good. Tell it the
