Your HONE PApER.-A contemporary,
in remarking upon the duty of the public
in supporting their home paper, truthfully
says:
"Do the city papers say anything in re-
gard to your own county Nothing. Do
they contain notices of your schools and
churches, meetings, improvements, and
hundreds of matters of interest which
your papers publish without pay Not an
item. Do they ever say word calcu-
lated to draw attention to your county and
its numerous thriving towns, and aid in
their progress and enterprise ?-Not fine
Not line. And yet there are men who
take such contracted views of this mrtter,
that unless they are getting as many
! square inches of readisg matter in their
own paper, think they are not the worth
of money 1t reminds US of the person
who took the largest pair of aboots in a
box because they cost the same as pair
much smaller but fit.
