E. Hovey Druggist. �1. IT ar ry Dis bedient Pers Do you protest, and say that you're not a very disobedient per- son? Be patient, for a moment, and we shall see. Look at the advertisements which you see in this newspaper, and in other newspapers, Most of them bid you do something some- thing which, if done, would, be advantageous to you, as well as being profitable to the advertiser. But clo you always obey these adver- tisers? You do net! And what is your excuse? Talce your teeth, by way of example? Are you doing what you cats to prevent or delay their decay and loss. If you are like most persons you are not. Yet you aro being Grged by advertisements to use regularly a product which, if used regularly, would keep your' . mouth and teeth in a really good health condition; and would enable you to keep your teeth sound and keep away toothache. It isn't the price of the product iidsieh keeps you from using it it's just .plain inertia and procrastination. Then there's an electric or other kind of washer—this by way of example—able to be purdhased on the instal,nient plan, The advertisements bid you buy it, and give you good reasons why you should use this labor-saving, life -prolonging mechanism. Has every man and every woman known to you obeyed the dommands of the advertisements of this washer? They have not. And their resistance cannot be put down to disbelief. The explan- ation is: Most of us are shameless pooerastinators—putting off, putting off, putting off all the time. When you read advertisements, see in then: the untiring effort of manufacturers and institutions to cause you to dt, right things. Talce,the life insurance companies, by way of example: Their advertisements urge all of us to insure our lives, Yet how stub- born most of us are! We resist the biddings of the advertisements and the canvasses of the salesmen of life insurance. We defer Be- ing the obviously right thing, often for gears! So when you see and read advertisements, and when you feel inclined to say, "What a •shoekieg lot of money is spent by aclver- tisers"1, S•eflect on this' idea: It is the stuliburn disobedience of mon and women that is to be condemned. We should be grateful to those advertisers who pursue us all our life„ bidding us do things, whicheif done, -Would be advan- tageous to ius.
