Influence of the Country Weekly.

A writer i'll the Rcpiem Of RepjeWS
sums up the qualities of the suburban
weekly paper as follows:
Each copy is read not only by the
people usually credited to the ordinary
paper but twice that number. In many
instances subscribers pass their paper
on and on to inmates of less fortunate
homes. These publications are pre-em-
inently the home papers of newspaper :
dom. They are not specifically scan
ned while men travel to business then
left to brakemen to be gathered up.
They go directly into homes and the
pleasure. Hence their peculiar value
as molders of public opinion.

tenant houses, but improve them and
see if you cannot rent them at good
figure, furnished or unfurnished.
