The advertisement of the New York
Sun which commences this week in our
columns will be continued for months.
The Sun states that the circulation of its
several editions last year was $3.50 $50
against 80, 236,919 the year previous. The
Sun, while IL furnishes live and gener-
ally acceptable newspaper at very low
rate, expends a great deal of money to
advertise the fact. This Is one of the Sc
crets of its success. The Sun believes
that every man should subscribe for and
literally support his local newspaper first
and foremost. Having done this consci-
entiously and faithfully, 1t advises all
those who may wish to supplement their
town or county paper with metropolitan
journal, to give the Sun trial.

BY far the best remedy for the treatment
