Did it ever occur to you that we had more than one thousand readers that are more than one year in arrears to The Tribune. Did it ever occur to you that it cost more than fifty dollars a week to send the papers to these homes every Friday ? One dollar is certainly within the reach of all. if not , as this is so close to Thanksgiving and we are thankful that we are alive , come in and tell us about it and and we will receipt you for the past year and send it next seas on to give you an opportunity to catch up in your finance . We want no one who desires the Tribune to be without it wheth er he can pay it or not. but we would like to have you call at least once a year get acquainted and take a receipt. It makes our books look so much better you know. On the other hand we know that there are numerous friends of this paper who simply neg lect to attend to the matter. The other day one of these friends called and after an apol ogy for seeming neglect on his part , insisted on paying nearly two years in advance. This is the other extreme for should the entire family call some day and do likewise , we might feel like humming the tune"l'l | be back in a minute , but I've got to go now. " If you think we have earned the dollar the past year and have one to spare , we can write you the prettiest receipt you ever looked at. It's all up to you.
