DO even his advertisers and buffers

We also concur with the Landmark in

type in advertising the fact that Il vote
Will be taken next fall upon The qucs-
lion or certain amendments to the State
Constitution.
Pearl type. as the Ledger says. is so
small that it is difficult to find it in any
newspaper equipment. Very few pa
pers in this country ever use any
smaller type than nonpareiI. which is
low with comfort. To read matter set in
pearl requires considerable effort from
the soundest eyes, and is almost impos-
sible, unless by the aid of n microscope

1t would seem that the State OF Vir
gin1a, in notifying the voters of ones
tons which are to come up Mt the polls
in the next election. might content it,

the smallest generally used in business
advertisements. The idea of nrintlnr

One of the amendments in question IS
