A Suggestion.

The people generally. and advertisers especially, should no; fail to remember that THE ARKANsAw TRAVELLER, while il enjoys national reputation, has a To- cal circulation much larger than that of any paper published in Little Rock. There are few reading families in the city or in any of the neighboring towns who do not receive THE ARXANsAw TRAv- ELER regularly. It is understood that the object of advertising is to make your name and business known in the com muaity from which you wish to receive trade. To secure this result you should advertise in that journal which has the largest circulation in that community THE ARKANsAw TRAvELER is that jour- nal.
