D0 YOU TAKE YOUR COUNTY PAPER 7
This is an all-important question, not only
to the publishers of paper ITSELF but to
all who have an interest in the future
growth and prosperity Of our towns and
institutions. But, you say, we can get a
paper from the cities containing more read
ing matter than yours, at the same cost.
True, but have you never reflected that if
you were to combine your patronagc-the
patronage you confer upon outside enter
prise upon your home paper, we would
be much better able to compete in every
respect, with our city contemporaries? Can
you reasonably expect us to expend twice
or thrice our income to make you such
paper as you would be pleased to have,
when you withhold from us your support? !?
Many of you suppose, at least, so we must
infer from your actions, that when you have
given your name to the publisher of your
home paper, whether it is accompnied by
the money or not, that there your respon-
sebility ends. 1t is this ercor, as much as
anything else, that has kept the local press
of our State so far below the standard of
journals in the cities and towns of the West.
When you have subscribed for your home
paper, it is your imperative duty to see
that your neighbor does likewise. If you
would wish to have your paper filled with
local news, send the publisher all the items
of news transpiring in your particular 10
cality. But, say you, have not the knack
of getting up such things. No matter, you
can give facts, and the editor will be only
too glad to dress them up in suitable garb.
If but few, in the different sections of
ofour county, would do this, what vast
amount of interesting and insr-"ctive local
intelligence would be spread be.orC the
public through the columns of your home
paper!
Many influential men, when spoken to
on the subject of supporting their home
paper, will tell you, with long drawn
yawn, "Well, would like to see the paper
kept up but really don't get any time to
read" Don't get time to read! Is there
man in our county, who does not squander
away, in useless gossip, more then time
enough, if he would devote it to the careful
perusal of his home paper, to make him
both wiser, better, and, consequently,
happier man? We can safely assert that
there is not, Thenw we say, take our advice,
and subscribe for your home paper, if not
for year, for a shorter period of time, and
read it. and if at the end of that time, you
can candidly and truthfnlly tell us that you
have not realized more then the value of
the amount invested, we will refund the
money!

OUR young friend and fellow typo,
CHARLES RHODES, of Jackson, is in town

subscriptions to a splendid work, entitled,
"The Pictorial Book of Anecdotes and In

highly spoken of by the press generally
throughout the country, and cannot fail to
secure wide circulation. One thing is
certain, the publishers could not have Sc

to boil. Dinner time came and with it the
turkey, but to carve it, he could not, the

had made an attempt to poison the family,
the turkey was sent to achemist to examine
for the deadly poison. In the meantime
