A FEW WORDS ABOUT OURSELVES.

On the ground that it is right that we should show
those who may not be aware of the extent of our
business, hat we are capable Of, NAV be par
doned for a few words about ourselves.
We have been successfully engaged in general pub
fishing here for nearly tSenty years. The buildings
that We oecupy-three in number-were built ~
ourselves, and are now owned by ourselves, are OF
brick and stone, situated on opposite corners and
five and six stories high. We have twenty print
ing presses, fifteen of which double presses and
alone capable OF turning out much work as thirty
ordinary, frsfcass presses the outlay for the above
exceeded three hundred thousand dollars cash With
out any exception ours is the most extensive com.
modous, and best appointed subscription publishing
house In the world. Our employees number nearly
five hundred. For the past six years we have run
our printing works more than half the time day and
night Our cash receipts run high as from one
hundred and fifty TO one hundred and seventy thou-
sand dollars per month on regular business ofcourse
this campaign business is extra and will largely
increase eur cash receipts.
FOR the past five years We have paid over five hun
dred thousand dollars for postage alone or over lO0
600 per year on an average; this is larger amou Mt
than Is paid TO- postage by any other iirm IN the
world. Beyond monthly accounts, which are ALWAYS
settled in full on the 10Th of each month"; we owe no
man. The capital provided, aside from that invest
ed in our printing office, is three hundred and fty
thousand dollars, which enables US TO purchase our
