The merchant who spends nothing on ad- vertising loses much more than he 'saves. The money spent for platy glass windows is not looked on as loss; nor is the money spent on better interior. lighting. Anything that increases favor, that adds to sales, that "multiplies customers is very properly regarded as a good investment. Advertising is a good investment just as plate giass windows are.
