The readers of a newspaper should make it a point to pitronize its advertisers, for if it. were not for their patronage the subscription price would have to be doubled in order to alford the publishers any profit.

Tlie rule of shrewd advertisers is first to be sure you have a good article, then advertise liberally. Young man, wlien you are courting your best girl don't make to many promises.

A girl has a fine retentive memory for the soft things and silly promises of courtship, and occasionally, in after years, when she is bending over the wash tub or patching the west end of your trousers, she will remind you of them in a cold, sarcastic tone of voice.
