often gets two dollars for the one he
spends informing his mind, as he docs
for the one he lays out in any other way
A man eats pound of sugar and it is
gone and the pleasure he has enjoyed is
ended, but the information he gots from
newspaper is treasured up to be enjoy
cd anew, and to be used whenever &C.
casion or inclination calls for it. A
newspapers not the wisdom Of one man,
or of two men; it is the wisdom Of the
age and of past ages too. q family
without newspaper is always behind
the times a year or SO IN general IN
formation; they can never think much
nor find much to think about--and there
are the little ones growing up withou
any taste for reading. Who then wo:!C
be without newspaper, and who woul'
read ono without paying for it.
