OUR Ancestors Advertised their wares, their inventions, their entertainments, their amusements. So do we, in the present generation ; but how different the conditions ! In the growth and power of the Newspaper Press we read the signs of the times ; and short-sighted indeed is the business-man, with all the light and knowledge before him, and with a suitable article to advertise, who fails to turn to a right account the opportunities thus open to him.— Advertisers' Manual.
