There Is nothing which shows the pros
perity Of u city more than its newspapers.
Where business Is lively it will always be
observed that business men advertise, 20
that stranger, by observing the columns OF
the home paper can tell all the principal
places Of business in the city. Whether
this is correct or not il is fact, and an
opinion Of the city is often formed from just
such thing. Every business man should
at least have his card in the newspaper and
show the world that there is such an institu-
ton as his existing.
