For five weeks last winter the city of Butte, Mont., was
a barren desert. 1t was the driest place on earth. The
water supply was all right, but owing to a strike all the
newspapers were suspended,

loeal newspaper is a pn.b!iu neceszity. Nobody knew what

little price and goes into
a million little hou.os,

The millions of peaple

caused by the Printer's

can get big bargains for
their money by sending
it away by mail, order
ing the things advertised
by the little pineh of
Printer’s Ink.
Sometimes when they reeeive the stuff they order by
wail they have another Think eoming. They think, “What
fools we mortals be,” and apply the Think to themselves,
And sometimes some of them think something like this:
“Wonder why Mister Man, our local dealer In
many things we need, doesn't advertise these
- things in our local paper? Maybe if he did we
wouldn’t be tempted to send to the big city for
these same things. |f we were sure we could
buy thém at home for about the same price and
have a chance to see the goods before taking,
we think we'd prefer to buy them at home.”
Now, Mister Men, what do you think— think—think?
