No paper can Ike published without
home patronage. and every one is inter
ested in keeping up home paper. If a
railroad or factory is wanted. the news
papers are expected to work for it. If a
public meeting is wanted for any par-
pose. the newspaper is called upon for a
s.ee notice. If any Of the societies have
supper or reception Of any kind. the
newspaper ia expected to give the ueces-
sary notice. The newspaper must puff
the schools and everybody else to advanc
the interests Of the business men of Tx
place. ard then give them a handsome
notice when they pass away. And ye1
some of them DO nothing to keep up II
home newspaper.

Some Business Suggestions.

Does your business pay? Could You
not make it pay better by doing some
advertising in Il judicious way?
Some business men are always on the
lookout for new customer and contriv-
ing ways to pleas and meet the wants
Of old ones. The best and cheapest
method to get new customers is by adj
vertising in an enterprising newspaper.
Advertising doesn't sell any mans
goods. it only let's the people. the pur-
chasers. know where to find them. The
newspaper that is read by the most peo-
pie is the one in which to advertise.
There is great deal in writing an at
tractive advertisement. Do You give
your ads. your best attention.?
If You expect to do IL large business on
the fact that you know 80 many people,
You will get left. The ones you don't
know are greatly in the majority How
are you to reach them in the most favor
able manner at the least expense? By
placing an attractive advertisement in
the newspaper.
Instances have been cited where large
advertisers have gone under. This was
not the fault of the advertising. but of
the advertiser. A man can lose money
specializing in advertising the same US
in wheat. 1t is in dealing with the ar
ticle rs staple that results in sure re-
turns.
The newspaper that takes advertising
to I'll up with cannot prosper. A news
paper that has its rates too high cannot
sell its space. There is Il normal rate.
that is, a rate which the publisher can
afford to accept and make Il profit and
which the advertiser can afford to pay
and also make Il profit. The profit must
be mutual else one or the other will quit.
We aim to have oUr rates normal"

Nuts for Advertisers to Crack.


The man who does not find advertising
profitable generally finds business un-
profitable.
A business may be likened to all arch:
if capital and labor represent the pillars.
then advertising is the keystone, without
which the structure must crumble.
Was newspaper advertising success
with you last year? If not. why not? 1t
pays others. 1t ought to pay you. and
will if wisely done.-Ayers' Newspaper
Manual.
Let your advertisement in all cases ex-
actly correspond with what you really
propose to sell. Be prepared to show the
customer who inquiries the identical
goods, and let price and terms always
tally with your announcements.
Half the battle in advertising is in
knowing what to say and how to say it..
OF all things don't try to say too much
in one advertisement. Remember that
''Brevity is the soul Of wit" II you've
a thing TO sell. name it. with the price.
briefly. If yon want anything, waste no
words in needless explanation.

The "Silcnf Drummer"

Did you ever think what your adj il
the newspaper is doing for you? When
you close your store IN the evening and
90 home to your family and tireside. not
thinking about your business at ALL ihen
it is that the paper is being pored over in
hundreds of ho,nes-the homes from
which your trade is drawn. And there
is your al. doing Its work silently but
surely. and if yop have taken ,y,;cs to
make it attractive it's work will I've all
the more effective. This is rel Gated
over and again. AMI is no doubt what in
spircl some writer to call newspaper cd.

why Support the Home Paper?

Why? Because, if for no better reason,
the home newspaper supports YOU You
wake up once in while, perhaps, and
forsaking your private business, in which
for years you have been immersed, you
turn out and spend q day Or an hour for
the public good--at tho polls fighting
against the reelection OF a boodler, at q
public meeting talking for water works
or some new enterprise then you
return to your pursuit. leaving the news
paper to clinch the victory or protect the
retreat. az the case may be.
The newspaper man has been SO long
the Waterman on the tower, or the man
on guard. that his service in this line is
taken rs a matter of course, and the
value of that service has fallen too far
in public appreciation.
But the newspaper man is not whin-
ing. He cares whether his service is
appreciated or not-everybody who is
anybody is sensitive to appreciation or
the denial of it; but he knows what be-
longs to his guild, and knowing, he Is
going to continue his performance. Still,
when reasons are wanted for supporting
the home paper, it is fair to say that the
newspaper should be supported because
it is daily public benefit, contending
for the public good when the public it.
self is drowsy or slumbering deeply.
But that, you may say, is q sentimental
reason, and SO it is. partly. No self re-
speeding newspaper man would urge it
alone. The strict business reason for
supporting the home paper is that it
pays, directly, as well us indirectly. Let
two men try two opposite policies. Let
one man advertise in the home paper
not putting in an lad" written in min
ute on scrap Of paper, but preparing an
announcement with care. and study,
changing it frequently. always with the
same care, and keeping the series going
steadily. Let the other man try any plan
he pleasss Of pushing Observation-Disclosures
prizes. brass bands, balloon real estate
tricks, personal solicitation from house
to house-anything he pleases-.and see
how it will come out. For the same
money the newspaper advertiser will
beat the other man two to one!

Clarks0n aud the Press.

Clarkson is bemoaning the fact that the
Democratic press has more readers than the
Republican. This was not the case few
years ago. on the contrary, quite the reverse,
but the Republican press has ceased to
great degree to retain the confidence of their
readers. Tho people have not only been
reading, but thinking, and they have wise
~ concluded that the Democratic press is
the more deserving of support. As the
Baltimore San says, s'the simple truth,
which Mr.. Clarkson either does not per-
ceive or is unwilling to admit, is that the
democratic party embodies at present the
vital principles of progress and reform, in
which the great mass of the people are
deeply interested, and it is because the
democratic and independent press elucidates
and urges those principles that it has gain
ed 80 much Roadway in recent years. The
party in power, by it's defense of an iniqui-
tous system of taxation, its bigoted par
tisauship and its corrupt and desperate
methods, has driven every Independent and
able newspaper from its ranks, and no
amount of STRENGTHENING" will infuse the
requisite vigor into the mere organs, which
are deservadly without standing or credit
with wide-awake, fair-minded Americans"

A CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTs.-Robert w.
Thornbill, of Appomatt. county, was in
Lynchburg on Monday and gave an account
of terrible misfortunes which befell his
family Sunday. In the first place, he went
out to his barn to feed his stock early in
the morning. and while walking in the hay
loft be fell through concealed opening and
broke his arm above the elbow. AS soon
as possible he walked back to the house for
assistance, and as he entered the door he
heard screams coming from the kitchen,
and on rushing in he found his wife envel
oped in flames, her clothing having caught
from the open fireplace. With the aid Of
his daughter the flames were extinguished,
but not before the lady was terribly burn
ed. Shortly after this occurrence negro
boy came rushing into the house with the
information that the Oldest son, who had
gone to tbb barn after his father was hurt,
had beeykioked in the bowels by vicious
horse ard badly injured. Thornbill came
to tow after medical assistance.
