| A WORD TO BUSINESS MEN. Advertiser
who wish to reach the country trade as
| we'll as that of the town, should make use
of the columns OF the GOLD LEAF. But
few persons living in the adjoining terrific
| ry who do business in Henderson, do not
read this paper, and generally from its adj
vertisements make up their minds where
they will do their shopping before coming
to town. Farmers pay cash FOR what they
buy, and hence always trade where they
can readily get what they want at lowest
price, and naturally they look over the ad-
vertising columns of the paper for such in
formation.
Be sure to try some of PurefOV's cham
pion flour ; it is the hest in the market for
the money. Prices just reduced. may, g.
PATRoSIZE HoME.-Don't go away
from home to buy anything if you can
get it OF your local dealer. The way to
build up II town is to patronize home in
situations. You may not be able to buy
some things quite as cheap, but taken all
around You save nothing by going away
from home to trade. Your home mer-
chant who advertises does much toward
bringing the town Before the country

action speaks OF life, enterprise and pros
perity, and causes people to look with
merchant, and especially the one who adj
, vertises.
