An exchange pertinontly remarks
that men who advertise in their homo
papers are men who transact the bust
ness Of the town. You can pick up any
and in FIVE minutes tell who
do the buying and selling. and keep
alive the interests Of the place. A news
paper invariably reflects the worth, en-
terprise and intelligence Of the commu-
uitv in which it is published.
When you feel badly hec,use bust
ness is dull, and everything seems to be
against you, run to the printing Offices
and plaut your advertisements The
exercise and the new customers you will
draw, VII put you in coed spirits and
make you feel like new man.
Encourage newspaper reading among
your children, and you will soon discov-
er what fJndness they will have for
their family journal, and how rapidly
they will improve The newspaper is
the poor mans library. Every family
should be provided with newspaper.
