sB-Everybody knows-or ought 10
know-that Advertising is the life Of trade;
and those who soonest set about making their
name, location and business familiar To the
public as household words, by iuiicious and
extensive advertising, will realize the earliest
and largest returns. This is especially the
case with City tradesmen who wish TO reach
the people OF the interior. by whose custom,
chiefly, they must live. Many of them seem
10 know little and care less about the locali-
ties, population and resources Of their own
State, and seldom extend their vision beyond
their own door step and signhoard. Many
others, however, are too shrewd and wide
awake 10 their own interests, to be caught
mapping in that way. with the sharp pressure
Of competition, and the feverish struggle for
precedence. all around them. But whatever
NAV be the advantages Of advertising in gen.
.ral, there can he no doubt whatever as 10 the
importance of Philadelphia and Baltimore
merchants and manufacturers taking prompt
measures, through the country press, 10 reach
the ewes and pockets Of people in the region
uaversei by the projected Susquehanna, sun
bury & Erie. and N0r.h Penu'a Railroads.

By = neighbor's dog, on Wednesday last,

high time that the worthless ours with
which the town is infested, should be ex-
terminated. The public safety imperative
ly requires it. The recent borough ordi-
nance requiring dogs to be mszzled has
been a dead letter SO far. 1t is an imper-
fec. protection, at best, and the letter
course, decidedly, is to kill them OF. There
is not one out of fifty, at any rate, that
