Buy all your supplies of the peddlers. It is folly to patronize a local trader. If you did he might make enough in a year to pay his rent and taxes. The peddlers don't spend a cent in town, therefore patronize them all you can. Don't subscribe for your local paper.

You can borrow of your neighbor, or go into a hotel somewhere and read a copy them- If you have a house for sale or room to let, don't pay the newspaper a quarter to advertise the same. Write out a dozen notices and tack them up on the shade trees in the village. The trees cost you nothing. Keep, up this course for about five years more, and we will agree to buy the best piece of real estate in town for three cents a Exchange. Sudden Death.
