We would call attention to the advertise
ments which we print from week to week
We do not insert any which are not of inter-
est to some one. In the words of a cOtenl-
porarv. those who fail to read the advertise
ments i'll a newspaper, often lose much more
than they imagine. Advertisements are
printed to be read just as much as any other
item of news: and it is just as essential to
read Them There is not an advertisement
printed that is not of Importance to some
one. Nothing speaks more clearly of a man S
prosperity in business than the manner in
which he advertiscs.
e 1t will be noticed that VIC have anoth-
er lengthy, though very interesting, letter
from our Kentucky correspondent.
EY' We are happy to learn that Mr.. Clarke
is meeting with such encouragement in his
Normal Music Class, as will render its COM
pletc success Il matter of no doubt

"BIDnY ~ THE FIELD AG,lN-Passine

her with only half roof to protect herself

bound not to do, and when worst came tC
worst. the Irish lady manifested the SAME
