WE. that your friends away from home are provided With the Local News. Send them. "The Times" It contains many Items of Interest you overlook in your personal correspondence. It is not necessary to argue the "value" to you of your home newspaper. But we ask this of you: Isn't $1.50 little enough for the TIMES, which gathers together for you all the News of this community? No city daily can do what the TIMES is doing for and in this country and neighborhood. City papers cannot give you with desired fulness the news of your locality. It does not tell you win* local merchants have to offer you. Local news and happenings are told only sufficiently in a Local Newspaper. What we are concerned about is that you value your weekly newspaper as an indespensible household luxury. The. publisher of , an important Canadian daily newspaper has said in his newspaper this. :— The newspaper is about the cheapest thing in the modern world for its value. If 'nothing else were considered save the usefulness of the Adver- tisements and the Market Prices, to the average home, a dollar spent in Newspapers must mean the saving of many dollars in the home.
