You know the story of Rip Van Winkle— the man who went to sleep for 20 years, and who, when he awoke, expected to find the world the same as it was when he entered slumberland. There are men to -day very much like Rip Van Winkle—their point of view and their practices are those of a generation past. They do not believe in advertising. To succeed in these modern days one must be in accord with the spirit of to -day. For a merchant, this means he must advertise, if he would prosper.
