ADVERTISING DEPARTMENT.
A limited space in our Magazine is devoted to Advertisements, for
which our low rates and large circulation make its pages specially
valuable. Our readers are among the best in the country, having an
established character for integrity and thrift that constitute them
valued customers in all departments of business.
To Advertisers using display type and Cuts, who are accustomed
to the "RULES" of the best Newspapers, requiring "DOUBLE RATES"
for these "LUXURIES," our wide pages, fine paper, and superior
printing, with =no extra charge for cuts=, are advantages readily
appreciated, and which add greatly to the appearance and effect of
business announcements.
We are, thus far, gratified with the success of this department,
and solicit orders from all who have unexceptionable wares to
advertise.
Advertisements must be received by the TENTH of the month, in order
to secure insertion in the following number. All communications in
relation to advertising should be addressed to

Transcriber’s Notes:
Punctuation, spelling and grammar were changed only where the error
appears to be a printing error. The punctuation changes are too
numerous to list; the others are as follows:
— “a” changed to “and” on page 161. (English and Scotch
missionaries)
— missing “is” inserted on page 166. (The discipline of these
institutions is evidently giving)
— missing a added to change “Afric’s” to “Africa’s” on page 175.
(Africa’s sunny fountains)
— extraneous “(” removed from E.D. Bassford’s Advertisement on
page 191, just prior to “COOPER INSTITUTE”.
— “attenion” changed to “attention” on page 192. (are well worth
attention of)
