Their hind is against every man, and no

Give Pristers Fair Piay.—We have
a piece of advice, says an exchange, which
we wish to fix firmly and indelibly upon
the public mind, and that is, to give the
printers fair play. Do not forget that it
costs something to “puff” as well as to advertise, and never. sponge upon a printer
in any way whatever. It is the printer's
ink that makes ninetenths of your fortunes; it takes money to buy ink, ty
and paper, and yet. after all this, few are
ers fair play, give up all expections of gratultous puffing; ete, and come down with
a remuneration.
