THE OBJECTION NOT GOOD.

There No. people who have objections
TO advertising matter In the columns OF
a newspaper. The ground OF objection
Is that they do not want to read ad-
vcrtisomcnts. Now this objection Is not
good, FOR oftentImcs these advertise
ments convey valuable information.
For instance how else would the trav-
