Occasionally an individual says to us,
"times are so hard with me, must stop INV
paper" or, as in some instances, "my wife
thinks we can dispense with the paper now,
and must stop Thus it is, they stop the
paper the first thing as a useless expense,
without thinking of the actual waste Of
money for things drank, eat, smoked and
chewed, which can do the system no good,
but rather harm. n
The newspaper can and should be regard
ed as benefit to every household; it i'm
parts useful information; il furnishes sub
jects for thought and conversation it adds
a charm to social intercourse /; it makes
agreeable members of society. To be with
out a newspaper one might as well be out of
the world; he becomes n perfect nobody
when he goes into society and hears Others
talk about current events, and discuss ques-
tons Of local and general interest, he can
take no part in these things, because he is
not posted up, not having read the papers.
And in the family circle what an influence
the newspaper nas-the children read il,
and gain in knowledge it serves to occupy
their leisure hours, to keep them from frivo-
lous amusements, and gives an attraction TO
home. Surely, then, no wise parent would
consent to 60 without newspaper in his
fanlily-a local home newspaper, too. He
may think he can get along without it. be-
canse he is out of the world, and can have
the reading of the paper from his neighbours
shop or store, or can learn what is going ON
from Others But this Is rather mean
way. Men ought to be independent. They
ought to read for themselves II, however,
they think they do not need the paper for
themselves, they may rest assured that their
family does. Considerations like these
should have weight, and should induce those
who have had thoughts of stopping their
newspaper NOT 70 do 40 and for those who
have not taken paper. to Subscribe at once.
