THE PRICE OF PAPER.

AS many of the friends of The
Herald have made inquiries as to
the probability of reduction in cost of
newspapers and paper goods gener-
ally, it may not be out of place to
relate few facts here. We are often
reminded by customers of quotations
made some weeks or months ago,
and the question is frequently asked
why no reductions are being made,
inasmuch as goods of most kinds
have declined in price. We are COM
PEELED to reply that there is no reduc-
tions in the cost of stationery or
publishing, and We are now rather
of the opinion that the public may
never again expect the low prices
of, the pre-war period.
The pre-war price of news print
paper was $3.50 per 100 pounds. To-
day there is no quotation on news
print, nor has there been for the
past year or so. Various dealers sell
it for from 10 1-2 cents to 16 cents
a pound. We believe it can be
bought by the trade generally around
IA cents pound, and by those who
have contracts at prices somewhat
less, but there has been no decline;
on the contrary, The Herald bought
paper two months ago for 9 1-2
cents, and it would have to pay, now,
from the same dealer, 10 1-2 cents,
a recent advance of one cent pound.
This means that where it used to
cost IA cent for the paper on which
each Herald was printed, it now costs
a little more than one cent. The
Herald has been fortunate in having
paper connection with house that
has never profteered in news print.
Many of our exchanges are now print
ed on paper that costs them cent
and a half for each paper. With the
exception OF a few emergency lots,
The Herald has never paid in excess
of 9 1-2 cents a pound for paper, but
will have to pay cent a pound more
for our next lot.
The situation in regard to job
printing papers is about the same as
with print paper, except that there
are regular quotations. The price Of
Hammermill Bond, a popular med
ium grade Of paper. on July 1 last
was 22 cents per pound. The price
list Of Dec Is gives it at "a IL
cents. but no advance has been made
in the last sixty days. The price Of
Strathmore Parchment, very high
grade of job paper, on July / was
55 cents a pound, and on December
Is was 60 cents. Practically all 9TH
er job papers are about in accordance

Since that time, instruction has been

provided technical and exhaustive

The ancient Hebrews carefully pre-
scryed their sacred writings in the

This library was gradually enlarged
until II contained 10000 volumes, but

Tho barbarians later destroyed
