Bismarck weekly tribune., 1888-02-10
A GREAT OFFER.

we call the attention OF our readers to
our special announcement in another COL
umn that we are going to use book en-
titled "Our Family Physician" as prem
ium to all subscribers to the TRIBUNE be-
tween now and the 1st OF April, 1883.
Most papers give premiums to new SUBJ
scribers only. We are going to break the
record and treat all alike. A careful read
ing of our statement, above referred to
will show how we propose to do it.
Regarding the book, it is the best work
OF the kind that we ever saw, and we know
that in putting it into the hands of our
subscribers we are giving them volume
that will prove of inestimable value to
them-one that will certainly save them
money, and may save life.
The offer we are making is the most lib
eral made by any paper in the county. To
give our subscribers the benefit of it we
have incurred heavy expense, and in a
certain sense have taken great risk, for
in order to get these books at such rate
that we could afford to handle them at all,
we had to buy large lot of them, for
which we paid in advance.
However, this does not worry us. We
regard our action from a strictly business
standpoint, and look upon the outlay in
CURED as permanent investment.
What we are after is a greatly increased
circulation. Not one half the people liv-
ing in the territory covered by the TR1B-
UNE, and who ought to take the paper, are
now taking it; and they never will take it
till In some way they learn low valuable
a paper it really is, and this they can never
find out till they have read it for at least a
year.
Our aim is to get them to read it at least a
year.
In order to do this, we have adopted the
plan set forth IN our statement, which is to
work for us to the extent of getting us one
new subscriber, and to pay them for their
trouble by giving them So book, free.
Ihere Is hardly subscriber to the TR1B-
UNE who does not know OF some one who
does not now take the paper who could be
induced 10 do so if the matter were brought
10 his attention. Will you not do this work
for us, that is, see your neighbor and get
him to subscribe? You can hold out as an
inducement to him So book for twenty
five cents. and the best paper in this part
OF the country, for year, for $2-both
for the small sum of 1925. The offer is
one that not one person in thou
sand will refuse if it is rightly brought to
his or her notice, and by taking a Single
subscription for us in this way, YOU will
get ~ book for nothing.
we urge every one of our old subscribers
to avail themselves of this offer before the
lst of April, 1888.
We want to double our list this wear. and
we can do it if our old subscribers will
each assist us in getting one new name!
VIII you not do SO much for your favOrite
paper? Don't wait to do this. The first
time your are in town come in and see us
and examine the book we offer. You will
be astonished to see how large and valuable
book it is, and having once seen it, you
Will not hesitate about getting it. Come
and see us.
TRIBUNE and who may read this notice,
we desire to say that we mean you by our
offer, and that we especially invite you to
come and examine the book, and urge YOU
to take advantage Of our offer.
AS we said before, we are making no
money this year by what we are doing.
We are simply paying out cash for the i'm
ours expense to enrich his ground, that it
may bring larger crop, or a merchant en-
larges his store and stock to win more
trade.
What the soil is to the farmer and the
store and stock are to merchant, that the
circulation M is to newspaper.
we are working our field and enlarging
our store and stock, and are paying good
wages to everybody who make to help us
along with the improvements.
Put In few hours for us, and come and
get your pay.
