WHAT AMERIU THINKS ABOUT THE amateurs'Concert in 'TEESDALE MERCURY' AND TEESDALE PEOPLE

"No Reports of Politicians or Racketeers"

r r t f f l miseries of an upset I stomach—pain after meats,

heaviness, the feeling that Kjthing's worth while — are (boost always due to excess add. Quick relief comes from locking two Rennies tablets, tac-by-one, like sweets. Rennies ba?e a Are-fold action which neutralizes acid stomachs, kings back well-being. They gt separately wrapped, c o m c-ajaat for handbag or pocket,

and can be taken anywhere, at any time, without the need for water, glass or spoon. If two Rennies don't speedily end stomach-pain you should see your doctor. Rennies can be had from any chemist, 25 for 9d., or the big economy size — 100 for 2/8 (tax included).

One of t l ie m u n v overseas sub scriuers to the "Teesdale M e r c u r y , " Cap:a in R a l p h A t k i n s o n , o i New Jersey i n ^ine Uui etl States, l ias Kind ly sent ihe Ed i to r of the " M e r c u r y " a copy uf the " T i C o n l ' ree Press," a Weekly newspaper* pub l i shed i n T i i t o n , Ceoig .a .

I n the newspaper is a n article o. the " TeesdaJe M e r c u r y " heaueu . " The K i n d of Week ly Newspapet they have i n E n g l a n d , " and t u t comments expressed are w o r t h y o, r ep roduc t ion as e x e m p l i f y i n g the conclusions reached by the w r i t e i of i l ie a r t i c l e .

A l t e r g i v i n g details or the size o l the " M e r c u r y , " the a r t i c le s a y s "One who le p a g e is covered s o l i d i n advert isements , i n t i ie s a m e s izi type as the regu la r read ing matter . No borders s u r i o u n d the ads., jus , a l i g h t l i ne to d iv ide them i n the c o l u m n . " " P E O P L E O F GOOD C H A R A C T E R '

C o n t i n u i n g on advert isements , t in a r t ic le says : "One noticeable J i i u g is t i ie g i ea t nu inuer of e i i t e r i a in inents. There a r e m o r e m one i s s . t of that p a p e r tnan we n a v e .n » u m o i i i l i s . 1 ga iner f r o m l e a d i n d i a l the E n g l i s h i l l the r u r a l u n r i c i s are a l l of one c l a s s of p e o p . t

So now the people of 1'eesd.ale m a y take p r ide i n the fact that , i n A m e r i c a at least, t l iey have tire l e p u t a t i o i i of be ing of good char acler, honest, and that ihey spenu a l l t he i r spare tune e n t e r t a i n i n g !

As m i g h t be expected, the adver t isements are of keen interest to t i n Amer icans , a n d the w r i t e r con'.in ues : " There are m a n y w a n t ads The ads. for help begin , 'Messengei boy requ i red . ' W h e n people a r t needed to w o r k they use the wore ' r equ i r ed . ' I f they w a n t to buy hog they use the w o r d ' wan ted at the b e g i n n i n g . "

As an example of the types o l advert isements, t w o are r ep r in teu i n f u l l . " P O L I T I C I A N S & R A C K E T E E R S /

I n f o r w a r d i n g the paper, Capt .A tk in son concludes his letter w i t l

T o . r e t u r n the compl imen t , we ive you an idea of Hie type o i

weekly newspaper pub l i shed i n what would appear to be a count ry

o w n very comparable w i t h b a i -i a r d Castle, l n t o n is i n G-eorg.a,

one of the Southern States o \ m e r i c a , and nas a p o p u l a t i o n o i ust over j.tKHJ.

m a l a r to the sma l l - t own news-t><ittii'S often seen on the l i i n i s , where the p rop r i e to r w r i t e s H i t nat te r anu o i t en sets up the type and p r i n t s the paper.

Tney are a l l l oca l firms and the emphasis seems to be on b o l d type .au ie r than a t t rac t ive d i sp lay .

T i ie nearest approach to our s m a l l adver t isement is a news i t em w h i c h reads •—
