The Duty OF the Press During PrelImf-

The Advertising Department.
" THEODORE FISHER, HARRINGTON TIMES.

BY THEODORE FISHER, HARRINGTON TINES. |
To the newspaper publisher the ad-
vertising department of his journal is
the M of largest moment, though 9TH
ers may at times give him the greater
concern and require a larger share of
his attention. The metaphor may be
a homely one, but advertising is to the
newspaper what food and drink are to
the human body it keeps up the vital
ity, restores the wasting resources, and
adds that strength, buoyancy and con-
fdence necessary to carry ont the pur-
pose for which the publication is iu-
tended. Nor does it's DEMONSTRATING
properties extend only to the publisher
and the advertiser, but it bears with it
a blessing to humanity in the degree
that a healthy, vigorous and free press
is a means of happiness to mankind.
By it's help literature, the events trans
piring throughout the world, intelii-
gence of the advancing strides in the
sciences and arts, and everything cal
culated to interest and entertain the
varied tastes of the human mind, are
brought within the reach of poor as
well as rich. But this ph~ilanthropist
of the toiiing millions is not properly
appreciated by its multitude of indirect
beneficiaries, who are too frequently dis
posed to look upon it as an intruder
upon the space of the journal which it
has enabled them to purchase for a
couple of pennies or a half dime, and
which would otherwise have cost them
a quarter of a dollar. Why, they some
times show this dispenser of untold in
tellectual riches the grossest ingrati-
tude by complaining of its cheerful
presence when their daily or weekly
purveyor of news comes to them like an
epicure from a b~anqueting TABLETOP
full of advertising to give u%tteranee to
much else.
l WAS about to say that advertising is
! as old as the newspaper and SO it is,
doubtless, but not through that con.
venient medium. We are informed
that the first regular newspaper-"The
Certain Newes of the Present Week.
published in England as early as 1922,
did not contain a single advertisement
do not know how long that enterprise
managed to exist, but n thing is GER

yond the reach of the common masses
land not many of them probably coult
have read 1t if it had not been. In 1852
however, a newspaper was published il
which a few people, q little in advanc'
of the age in which they lived, places
advertisements. By slow stages tn
custom grew more popular. The frs
paper published in this country, a
late as 1704, was often without a soil
