Free Newspaper List.
Why should people look for free
newspa pers any more than they look
for free cigars, free umbrellas, free
walking sticks, free collars, free cuffs.
or free steaks Every copy of news
paper is pro iuct which costs money.
The tailor, the tobacconist, the gents
furnisher or the grocer is not called
upon to supply free copies Of the pro-
duets which they handle. The peo-
pie who are aggrieved if they cannot
get free copy of newspaper would
not think OF struggling for place on
the free list OF grocery store, dry
goods store or butchers shop. 1t is
the principle more than the cost of
the free newspaper idea which is re-
pugnant to allsound business notions.
