THE PROPRIETORS OF

_THE TIMES_

Urge you to spend your money
elsewhere.

_THE TIMES_

may have the best foreign correspondence,
the latest news, the greatest
variety of letters (in types of all sizes),
the funniest dramatic criticisms, the
sternest leading articles, and the only
newspaper proprietor now acting as a
plenipotentiary in America;

BUT

you are implored not to buy it.

Remember its virtues for future use,
when skies are brighter, but disregard
them to-day.

* * *

We appeal to the great-hearted Public
to make a real effort and refrain from
buying

_THE OBSERVER._

Sunday may be only half a Sunday
without it;

But indulge in a little self-sacrifice.

Not only eat less bread
But
Read less GARVIN.

DOWN SPECTATORS!

Give

_THE SPECTATOR_

A WIDE BERTH.

There are reasons why it must be published
regularly

But there are no reasons why you
should buy it.

There is no better, saner, or soberer
Critic of Life; but what of it?

We print all the latest Canine and
Feline news; but never mind.

If you won't, as seems probable, down
your glass, down your _Spectator_.

BY NOT BUYING

_THE DAILY CHRONICLE_.

Whatever Sixpenny weekly you buy
don't let it be

_THE NATION_.

Owing to its persecution by the present
incapable Government _The Nation_ is
achieving an embarrassing popularity.

Please forget it.

Let your only

NATION

Be your determi-

Nation

NOT TO BUY IT.

* * *

THE PROPRIETORS OF

_THE STAR_

urge you not to buy it any more until
the War is over and paper is cheap again.

Buy _The Evening News_ instead.

DON'T BUY

_THE SPHERE_.

IT IS ONLY SEVENPENCE A WEEK,

BUT DON'T BUY IT.

It is full of Pictures of the War, but
you can do without them. It has
punctual literary judgments of astounding
finality by "C.K.S.," but they
can wait.

Do anything in reason, but don't buy

_The Sphere_.

The depreciation, you observe, is
