Ayers Son's American Newspaper Annual for 1885 18 received. It is a handsomely bound, well printed book of about one thousand pages, and contains a carefully prepared list of all newspapers and periodicals in the United States, and Canada arranged by states in geographical sections, and by towns in alphabetical order. It is of great value to advertisers and it should have a place on every editorial desk in the land, as its various tables of populations, character of soil, manufacturers, political informa- tion are very usetul. -It 18 your duty to patronize your home merchants and business the men. It 1S to them you owe largely for growth of the county, and the increase in the value of your products and your land.

As long as your home merchant keeps within the bounds of reason in his prices and dealing, you should give bin preference above all others. Going to another city for goods of any kind is false economy. even if you do get them a little cheaper. The injury to your local interests is twice the amount saved and those who practice it in the face of reasonable prices at home are undeserving of a share in the public prosperity which they work against rather than encourage.
