There are more persons who sponge
from newspaper than from any other
source. When a man comes into the
world he receives a free "ad," when he
dies his bad debts are overlooked by the
charitable editor. All during his life he
asks and receives fayors from the news
papers. II they speak well Of him, the
fiattering notice is received in silence. II
his actions are criticised, he talks Of suit
for damage. He desires favorable men
tion and he desires it often. In fact, some
men have an idea that newspaper ID
run expressly TO keep them before the
public and that, too, without money and
without price.--Growler.
