following statement from its Wash

mo other business has been hit
harder by the war than the news

smaller cities and country towns
The large metropolitan papers have
probably suffered least. During 1917
more than 1900 publications went
out of business. After making al
1owance for new papers started, it
appears that there was net loss of
81 dailes and $50 weekles.
1.-The mortality statistics for 1913
will probably show as great loss
for the shortage of paper, the In
creasing cost of all kinds of supplies
and the higher wages, together with
the heavy call upon newspaper men

And one of the serious features
of the situation is that the people
of the country probably don't realize
that the most valuable portion Of the

Under popular government the coun-

try weeklies, but the smaller dailles
is the real voice of the people. Edl-
tors of large metropolitan papers do
not have and cannot have the close
touch with the people that is a neces-

should see to 1t that whatever else
happens the country press shall b,

GREATLY BENEFITED nj
CHAMBERLAIN's TABLETS

II am thankful for the good I
have received by using Chamberlain's
Tablets. About two years ago when
l began taking them I was suffering
a great deal from distress after eat
ing. and from headaches and O tired
feeling, due to indigestion and Q
torpid liver. Chamberlain's Tablets
corrected these disorders In short
time and since taking two bottles Of
them my health has been good."'
