He e o p 1 satints'tt, lura :what" life neighbors are doing, what is happening in the world around him, and he wants to Study the advertisements and find out where to buy goods. He doesn't say much about it perhaps,. when he goes to the store to do his trad- ing, but just let a nrerch'tnt adver- tise a special bargain, and see if the up-to-date farmer doesn't find it out and take advantage.
