in advertising—a paper is never
read. But let one be caught hug
ging the hired girl or chasing a
loose piece of calico up the street
after dark, and if the printing of
fice is in the garret of a twenty
etory building he will climb to
the top and ask the editor not to
publish it in the paper where
everybody will read it.”—Post.
