if you don't blow your own horn, no one will do it for you(Сам себя не похвалишь-никто не похвалит)
In one of the old Khabarovsk newspapers, which were published before 1917, there was such an announcement.
Объявление в одной из газет Хабаровска, издававшихся до 1917 года наглядно демонстрирует реализацию поговорки "Сам себя не похвалишь-никто не похвалит!"
In this announcement, one of the merchants - Vasiliy Ignatievich Tarasov, who was living in the city of Khabarovsk, writes about his own merits:
1.Merchant of the 2nd guild
2.Owner of gold mine.
3.Agent for the sale of American typewriters "Gammond"
4.Agent of the Society of Russian Dramatic Writers and Opera and Music Composers
5.Agent of "Sender" Transportation Agency
6.Member of the Public Meeting of the city of Khabarovsk.
7.Member of the Society of Bicyclists and Tourists
8.Member of the Khabarovsk Free Society of Firefighters.
9.The standard-bearer of the squadron and the head of the 4th branch of the trumpeters of the Khabarovsk Free Society of Firefighters
10.Trading in Manchuria in Harbin and Khabarovsk-on-Amur.
11.Supplier of fodder in batteries and battalions lodging in the city of Khabarovsk.
