Shop-windows on parade IN THE quiet and comfort of your home, newspaper in hand, the shop-windows of the town's best stores pass in review. Look at that charming little hat just the style you have been looking for, and so reasonable! And say, isn't that coat a darling? . . . Not only1 do you see illustrations of the merchandise, but you are told in detail of its merits and prices. A passing panorama that may be halted and started and halted at will. A shopping trip at home! . How long do you suppose it would take you to reverse the process to go up one street and down another, until you had visited personally every worth-while store in town? And how exhausted you would be, physically and nervously. There's no doubt about it. The modern way to shop is to read the advertisements, then make notes of the stores and the particular offerings that appeal to you. What a lot of time and bother such a method saves. You know beforehand what you want to look at, who has it, and what you will have to pay. Read the advertisements. Make it a daily habit. The regular reader of advertisements is better informed, makes the family budget stretch further, has more time for recreation, gets more value for her money, and profits in many other ways. Advertisements are frequently the most interesting news in the pap sr.
