The circulation of the GAZETTE is steadily in
crcasing, and that, too, among people who consult
its advertising columns generally before purchaa-
ing tho numerous articles they arc constantly III

from the fact that large country cdition-cqual-
Y as large the daily-is sent out all over this
section Of country three time5 week, and Is
read by thousands most of whom send here OF
to contiguous cities for what they have neither
the time or inclination to purchase in person. IL
of course follows that they read advertisements
in ordcrto find where purchases can be madcsats-
factorilv The advantages Of advertising III the
GAZETTE arc thus apparent and need no further
demonstration
