Important
News In

By HOLLAND.
THE valuable news of the
day Is not confined to .
the news columns. It la also
seen In the advertisements.
Of course It Is Important to
know what President Wilson
Is doing, what the latest de
velopments are In China or

breakfast food or straw hats
may be found.
These bits of commercial
news are among the adver
tisements. Wise persons look
for them and take advantage
of them when they are doing
their buying. The leading
merchants are continually
telling you news of their
stores, news flint Is Impor
tant because It often means
a real saving and always
means something new and
worth while.
Read the advertisements If
you seek Important news.
Read them regularly and al-
1 ways with the thought that
I back of each advertisement
i are the reputation and bust-
ness standing of the mer-
j chant He could not afford
' to deceive you even if be
were so inclined.
