Good morning, have you paid your subscription for this year?- Perhaps you owe us for last year, or several years, or maiybe for job work or ad vertising. Now, you understand, we don't need the money, we have mil lions--to get. But it is really an imposition on our part to let peoplle go on carrying our money arouud when we are so strong and healthy and abundantly able to bear the bur den ourselves. For this reason we ask everybody who has any of our money in his possession to leave it at the ofice, or send it by mail, freight, express or any other way, just so it gets here. Silver and gold are heavy, and it would be a matter of life long regi-et if anyone should get bow-legged carrying it around for us.
