'Preaching is not a man-sized job. The pulpit is an anachronism in the modern world Preach ing comes down to us from a past age, when few possessed Bibles and fewer still could reao them for themselves. It was necessary then, when the be lievcrs assembled to have some one read and explain the words to them. Today, when almost every person can read for himself, when Bibles can be bought for a few cents there is no need for such a service. The average man in the new is quite as capable of reading the Bible and interpreting any passage which interests him as the average minister" John Spargo.

'HE public has received many warnings against counterfeiters. It is not a
rare thing to hear bank experts say that spurious monev findino- its wav
to the banks so closely resembles the genuine that they can but just detect the very slight difference and through the hands of some these spurious coins and bills have passed as readily as the good to the great detriment of the commer-
ciai world.
COUNTERFEIT
ADVERTISING.
r
OUNTERFEITS are found in every phase of life more es
pecially among newspaper advertisements. Many good, honest, hard-working men and women have accepted them as reliable and invested their money and immediately afterward realize that they have paid dearly and bitterly for their ignorance.

HE COURIER is aware that
there are counterfeits amon&
business men who have no conscientious scruples in advertising something for nothing and therefore seeks to protect its patrons from all such nefarious traps by refusing to accept anything but genuine advertising on which the readers may rely.
HE editor occupies the same position in the advertising department that the expert! banker does in examining the monev in his bank Honest bus-
iness men advertise honeat goods at honest prices. They are always alive and awake to golden opportunies of placing their ads in The COURIER where hun. dreds of readers readily devour the rich, crisp news of the social and commercial world. A counterfeiter gives nothing for something. A reliable advertiser is offering something for something. The COURIER is a splendid paper in which to place your advertising.
