Here is what Peter Cooper, who lived
to be over 80 years old aud died worth
many millions, said of newspaper: In
all towns where newspaper is published
every man should advertise in it, if moth
ing more than card stating his name and
the business he is in. 1t not only pays
the advertiser, but it let's the people at q
distance know that the town in which you
reside is prosperous community of 5usi-
ness men. As the seed is sown 30 the
seed recompenses. Never pull down your
sign while you expect do business.
