Mary had alittle lamb, its fleece wa white as snow; it strayed away one summers day where lambs should never go. Then Mary sat her down and tears streamed slowly down her face; she never found the lamb because she did not advertise. And Mary had a brother John, who kept a village store; he sat down and smoked his pipe and watched the open door. And as the people passed along and did not stop to buy, John , still sat and smoked his pipe and blinked his sleepy eye. And so the brokers seized bis stock but still be lingered near and Mary came to drop with him a sympathetic tear, “ How is it, sister, can tell me why. othershopman here sell all their goods so quickly and thrive from year to year?” Kemembering now her own bad luck the little maid replies, ** These fellows fatten, John, because they advertise.’ Advertise in this paper, which finds its way into every home in the district.
