Tbe Springfield Republican

Is recognized as a superior newspaper. one of the leaders of the American press. It has been in snct @ -sinl operation for over 70 years, but it is thoroughly gro. gressive and modern. Its mechanical plant has been entirely renew ed within the. past year, the second time within dozen years. Its facilities for publish. ing great newspaper ale now unsur- pissed. The volume of reading matter in its daily issue has been increased by 40 per cent, and it has thus been possi ble to notably enrich and strengthen the quality of the paper.

News, Politics, Literature.

In all of these departments of a news paper the policy of The Republican is broad, independent and fair. It is alert and enterprising in the service of it's constituency. It seeks to enlighten the minds and brighten the lives of its read CTS by laying before them day by day all that is best and richest and most inter esting in current affairs, both at home and abroad. It publishes fully and fairly the information which enables its read CTS to form their own opinions on pub lie questions. It samples liberaily the pest literature of the times.

The Sunday Republican

Is unique among Sunday newspapers. It is large enough to afford it's readers a rich assortment of entertaining and in structive literature in addition to the news, but it does not swamp them in an ocean of printed words, in which good matter and the worthless are indiscrimi- nately mixed. It aims first at excellence and in quantity is reasonable.

FRAEKLIN's WORDS OF WISDOM.
 Creditors have better memories than debtors.
 Keep thy shop, and thy shop will keep thee.
 When the well is dry, they know the worth of water.
 If you would have your business done, go; if not, send.
 What maintains one vice would bring up two children.
 If you would know the value of money try to borrow some. Not to oversee workmen is to leave them your purse open. Want of care does more damage than want of knowledge. The eye of the master will do more work than both his hands. By diligence and perseverance the mouse eats the cable in two.
 Now have sheep and COW, every. body bids me good morning. Experience keeps dear school, but fools will learn in no other. Industry needs not wish, and he that lives upon hope will die fasting. For age and want save while you may no morning sun lasts all the day. Lying rides upon debts back; it i. hard for an empty bag to stand upright If you would have faithful servant and one that yon like, serve yourself Work today. for you know not how much you may be hindered tomorrow,
