It is strange that 80 many are shallow headed enough to believe that business men can’t read them like an open book and that such hypocritical excuses are ever made with the thought of being seriously received. There isn’t a very large per centage of these " call againers” that have the first real intention of keeping their word, and the utterance of such a lame excuse always counts against their sincerity. No man is obliged to buy a thing he doesn’t like, and it would be a thousand times more manly for him to say what he thought rather than leave the place with a transpar- ent lie on his lips.

Space, contents and 1c limit are all to be considered, and :11 when a fair answer is given with the requirements known. the pro- ctive advertiser is often left in ig- nmce of what he is to get for his ‘uey. Other things being equal, the with the short tail will get through hole first. But things are not tally equal in the amount of publici- given by newspapers. The space .3' be equal, the time may be the me. but the circulations may be stly different, and the value received 5‘ be quite different in the difierent 168.

AN illustrated lecture will be given by Bishop Stringer in Trinity church on Monday evening. Nov. 5th, begin- ning at 7:30. As the scenes showing forth the country. the inhabitants, their manners and customs,are thrown upon the canvas, His Lordship will give an account of his life and ex- perience amongst the Esquimaux and Indians of the frozen Arctic regions of that land of three months day and three months night, where the people live in snow houses. dress in the skins of wild beasts and live upon their flesh. Bishop Stringer (as St. Paul) was in perils often, in perils of the sea. in perils in the wilderness, in perils of the natives. and presents to us an oppor- tunity of learning1 of life in the ex- treme north, which. perhaps, will nev- er be oflered to us again. During the evening a collection will be taken up in aid of missions. CHRISTMAS will be with us in a few weeks, and one application has already been made for an enlargement of ad- vertising space. While we have only alimited amount at our disposal or- dinarily we have the matter in our own hands to furnish a large or small edition as the requirements demand, and we are always willing to cater to the wants of our regular patrons. Spasmodic advertisnng is not very pro- fitable to the publisher, and we are well oiled can find no better lubricant than a judicious application of prin- ters’ ink. Our advice to business men is to keep the machinery well oiled the whole year round and the use of extra. space during the festive season will not be regarded as a curiosity. We’ll try to meet the requirements of all, but our side of the question must be considered and copy .must be in in time. Copy should always be in our hands earlier than it usually is to give us a. chance to show the advertiser up properly.

[St will be Devoted to the Commercial Activ- ities of Durham.
