TRUTH TELLS
And the TRUTH Is Told— \
In Our Advertisements
By HOLLAND.
MERCHANTS have learn
ed that the Truth Tells
when the Truth is Told.
Hence they are scrupulous
that their advertisements are j
accurate., Back of every ad
vertisement, back of every
statement made to attract
custom, is the reputation of
the merchant, his hope of
continued success.
Deception may be profitable
for a time, but deception can
not be permanent, and the
profit based on deception is
necessarily brief. Truth is
the more effective as it is of
longer duration. Falsehood
loses its effectiveness as soon
as it is discovered.
The merchants who adver
tise In this paper are honor
able men, and this would
make them truthful. But
above all they are good busi
ness men, and they know that
TO BE SUCCESSFUL
THEY MUST BE
TRUTHFUL.
Read the advertisements
and profit by them. You can

Employers, as a rule, are more favorably impressed
by the man who Saves. They admire the determina
tion of the youth who builds up a Savings Account
when his salary is small. Other things being equal
he is the one most likely to win promotion.
The man who shows his ability to manage his in
come instead of allowing his income to manage him,
is the one most apt to show profits instead of losses
in any executive position.
Therefore—The problem of a young man’s future
prosperity may be solved through a Savings Account
