A MATTER WORTHY OF ATTEN
TION.— Do not cause the printer to
spend a poor Christmas on account of
your negligence to pay the bill-i you
owe him. We have very many persons
on our hooks who owe us considerably
on subscription, advertising and cam
paign work, and we must insist on a
settlement of these debts. It is impos
sible to carry on business without
means and as long as money due us is
in the pockets of our debtors, it can do
us no good whatever. Please give this
matter your attention and those whom
it may concern are requested to re
spond without much delay.

compelling them to take the horrible,
nauseous compounds usually sold as
