Convenience Ad 10 - Unsatisfactory Dreams Can Be Cured

This advertisement shows the inevitable: the business was commercialized.The advertisement borders on the renegade as not all sanitariums and hospitals can offer legitimately helpful treatment.It also makes the rather large statement that unsatisfactory dreams can be prevented.As Convenience practitioners have experienced throughout the centuries, this is not often true. Nor can unsatisfactory dreams always be cured.Nevertheless, the advertisement does make the potential client aware that institutional help is available.Choosing the appropriate institution is of paramount importance.

[Renegade] Convenience Advertisement - Pleasure and Profit in Dream Work

This advertisement is clearly renegade.Some convenience practitioners did, and do, enter the practice for pleasure (primarily the pleasure of helping others), and some have made at least part of their living from the work.It's the commercial aspect of the advertisement that is problematic for its time, likely early twentieth-century.This advertisement appears to be part of the nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century industry impulses to codify everything and to make almost all parts of human life into commodities.

[Renegade] Convenience 75 - Three Strong Points

I wouldn't feel honest if I did not reveal that renegade conveniences do exist. It would be lovely to say that all those who generate and use the conveniences have been honest and sincere people.Alas, this has not been the case.Who knows why some people are less than sincere and forthright. Money? Fame?I'll be showing some of these renegade conveniences now and then, starting today.Today's convenience may appear to be somewhat borderline renegade. After all, it is claiming very nice attributes for those who use conveniences: Useful, Novel, and Ideal.It is definitely arguable that those who use the conveniences are artists, so there's no obvious problem with that term.The problem exists with the attributes. There is nothing wrong with being useful, of course.But novel? Is there really such an attribute, or does that claim border on arrogance? Is Ecclesiastes 1:9 correct when it tells us that "there is nothing new under the sun?"And ideal? Can anything or anyone really claim to be ideal?You should know that this convenience was actually accepted by some scholars for many years. But then scholarship fashions changed, as they do, and most convenience intellectuals came to believe that the words novel and ideal were too far-reaching.
