The Clarion

1t is not our intention to meddle with our
neighbors affairs by asking them to subscribe
for paper; nor do we expect to compli-
ment any paper hoping TO be compllmented
in return. But we do feel that we ought to
tell everybody about that good, gloriously
good, true, and able CLARION. 1t is always
full of the most interesting news, and the
editorials are to the Point-each one death
stroke to Radicalism. 1t never fails to be
replete with the most important news of
the day, and continually works out a rotten
place in Radicalism. 1t can be had for just
two dollars a year. A person could do
almost as well without his wife as THE
CLARION. We would like to have all of our
nei0hbOrs subscribe for it.

No young man who wishes TO make pro-
found and ready lawyer should ever think of
studying outside of Regular Law School. In
ten months, in the Lebanon Law School, which
is an eminent institution, a young man can
come out with diploma, license, and be not
only familiar with the great principles of law,
but all the details of practice.
Five months board and other expenses are
saved by shortening the time, and the same
amount of law acquired. The next session
opens 1st Monday in September.

Capt. NJ. c. Brady, OF PanOla county,
