the latter is to take possession of the

to know that the high standard they
have set will be maintained by Mr..
Gillihan whose management of the

Peter Cooper was shrewd business
man, and here is one Of his shrewdest
observations: I'm all towns where a
newspaper is published every man
should advertise even if nothing
more than telling his name and the
business he is in. 1t not only pays
the advertiser but lets the people at a
distance know that the town you re-
side in has prosperous class of bust
ness men. AS the seed is sown so it is
recompenesd. Never pull down the
sign if you do business, for it often in
dictates that your grip, commercially
is broken. The judicious advertiser
will receive ten dollars for every one
advertised in the columns Of local
newspaper"
