But it is not alone in numbers tina. the great
increase of advertising is shown Tho larger
space required for advertisements during the
year 1889 as compared with that occupied in
1888 il even more striking.
The average daily space filed by advertise
ments in 1888 was rs. 10 columns, or 777s columns
for the year; whereas for the year 1889 the daily
average was 2a75 columns, or 9223 columns n
the aggregate, being total gain over the pre-
vious year of 4 444 columnsl And this, il n.as
be remembered, consisted exclusively of the
ordinary everyday business advertising, nothing
in the way of tax sales poll lists election returns
ETC., such - occasionally swell the business OF
political organs, being included in its patron
sge.

It is relied upon by members Of the

the marked characteristics of the paper,

This is no idle boast on the part of the paper.
1t is well established fact, demonstrated to
the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter
