Back in the centuries the shops of stores you know started something on the order of public bartering places.
What has taken their place is the modern store where you can buy what you like just when you want it. You don’t have to buy a year’s supply all at once as of old. The storekeeper keeps it for you, and you buy only what you need as you need it.
The merchants and the manufacturer and advertising have brought this useful state of affairs about for your convenience you don’t even have to go to see everything and every shop to make your choice nowadays.
The advertisers relieve you of this trouble by bringing their goods to you in the advertisements before the days of the development of advertising, you would have had to visit a dozen or a score of places, weigh and choose, and then not be sure you had made the best selection. Advertising has made it possible to know just what will interest you and be of value to you.
Just think what this means; you order now without worry or trouble because advertising tells you all about the things you want to buy before you buy them.
Read the advertisements and think about them with this in mind. They are there to serve you.
