A WORD TO BUSINESS MEN.-We
find in the Pittsburgh Commercial some
remarks on the subject of advertising,
that are so applicable to this locality that
we make no apology for republishing
them. The Commercial says:
"Somc people advertise regularly; like
it; End their profit in it, and continue it.
Others have tried it, and given it up as
failure. Some have never tried ii, but
are going to do so some day or other,
and Others are firm in their intention
never to advertise at all. Those who
have given it up Us failure should
ak themselves if they have ever given it
. fair trial with reference to the style Of
advertising, the ground covered, and the
period of time occupied-for some fisher
men pull up their hooks and depart just
a. the fish are beginning to bite. Those
who are going to advertise ''some time or
other" should 20 out Of business alto
ge.her; they are too lsz: for il. The fact
of their intent in the matter shows they
believe advertising = good thing for their
business, yet they willfully neglect it,
OF those who think they will never adj
vcr.ioe il is safe to say that they will be
likely before long to change either their
principles or their business"

Five cents each morning. mere tri-

and twenty cents a year-and this
amount invested in savings bank at the
end of each year, and the interest there
on at six per cent, computed annually,
would in twelve years amount to more
more than Ss70-enough TO buy good
farm in the west.
Five cents before breakfast, dinner,
and supper, sou hardly miss it, yet it is
fifteen cents q day-$l.05 per week
enough to buy small library of books.
Invest this as before, and in twenty years
YOU have 5000. Quite enough to buy a

Two cents each morning-hardly
worth a second thought; yet with it you
buy paper Of pins orr spool of thread.

several yards of muslin. $3.50 in one

you would have 81 $40 in twenty years,
quite snug little fortune. Ten cents
before each breakfast, dinner and supper,
thirty cents day. 1t would buy book

to pay for years subscription to good

you could buy good melodeon, on which
your wife and daughter could produce
