Support Home Newspapers
The country newspaper is a
power in the land. Its place can
never be filled by the big daily
papers or the bulky magazines
or agricultural journals. It fills
a field entirely its own. It is the
barometer of the place in which
it is published. Its news pages
represent the life of the people
and its advertising pages should
reflect the business activity of
the town. It is the duty of ev-
ery good citizen to give his sup-
port to the loeai press. Particu-
larly_LhjL. business men should
patronize it with the view of bet-
tering their trade. It is not mon-
ey, wasted to use advertising
space in it. One good merchant
in the town who understands
how to advertise rightly, can
bring trade to the town that will
help every business man in it
But all should do their part, and
the storekeeper who does not
give his home paper the support
it merits is not the wisest kind
of a business man —Chillicothe
Hornet.
. Might Have Been
When Shakespeare said “Aye there's
the rub,’’we do not know for certain
he was thinking of the itch. But one
thing we do know—and know it twenty
years worth—Hunts Cure will absolute
ly, infallibly and cure any itching trou-
ble that aver happened to the human
cuticle. It’s guaranteed.
