Advertise An exchange says : Maybe you think that people don't like to read advertisements J Jf you do you are much mistaken. J'rcsli, well-put well-placed ad vcitisements are news ! They arc welcomed, read nay, studied! The newspaper that is alive with them is increasingly acceptable and so is the business houe that knows how to get them up. po-sessed withal with the sagacity and neive to keep them up. Take Yorit Lor vl Pai'EK A man in Marion county last week savcl l-" by taking n local paper, the Mercury, and there i- a man in this county, near Brown-ville, w ho told us, a -hort time ago, that he had made anMJ-aere tract of land bv being a reader of the Demo crat. He had been w anting for a long time to buy .in .. adjoining hi- farm, but could getno track ol thcownei, who was a non-re-ident of the Skite, and finally aw it adveiti-ed for tax sale in the JJemociat. ile attended the sale and bought it for a nominal sum, and is now the owner of it. Albuun JJemocrat. Warxivo to DrLiMUENr Snisntusnis. A Jiussian paper announces that a belief in the approaching end of the woild has seized on the Cossacks of the JJon. 31iny, especially aged people, are giving up wordly allairs, wening a shroud, and onk-ring their coilhis. On every road arc men repaiiivg to Mo-cow to be consecrated priests, in order that the smallest village may have its own priest and church. 'J lie Russian paper fails to state whether its delinquent subscribers have taken the scare and paid up. That to our mind would be stronger evidence of the approach of the Millennium than any thing that a siiper 'stitious Cos'sack could advance. Don't Re vd Advkutisiments. Occasionally a business man is encountered who professes to bclice that" people don't lead advertise ments any how !" A greater mi-take is sel dom made. If a typographical error creeps into Jin ail. if. soon becomes the talk of the neighborhood, and if the people do not read' ads. how do they drop on errors witn sucii facility ? The other day the advertisement, of the Centennial Rotaurant appeared, in which the woi d " eating" was set up " fating," where linon we weie dulv notified of the error by seven Salinasitcand one Chinaman, and last- y, the Monterey Herald felt in duty bound to iotify us also. Dtuhj J!eeurdci Salinas City, noti California. "It Pays to Anvumsr." This is true in every department of business, and no one ap preciates its truth more fully than S. II. Thompson. Some time since he received the Agency, for this county, of the Cunningham "Garden City Clipper Plow,' and immediate ly advertised the same in our paper. Creen B. Smith, 'sq.. a patron of the ("azette, saw the advertisement and forthwith rushed to Thompson's and pui chased four of these cele brated plows which at once have sprung into popular favor. No mater lio'.v good and valu able an aiticlc may be, a meichant or dealer may keen it upon his shelves, or in his store for 'months, or even years, and but lew will know anything of its good qualities, unless he advertises. 1 oryeais Mr. Thompson carried on business here, and spent but little for advertising. U ithin the past two years his business has increased nearly double, and he attributes it to judicious advei tising.
