Nevada County picayune., 1890-12-25
Christmas is here again. Swiftly.

Christmas is here again. Swiftly, so swiftly, time flies Reader, rctros- pect the past year and consider your
 errors, thatyou may avoid them in the
 coming year. Live to high and noble purpose. Mere life is worth l nothing if we accomplish no good. Monday attachments amounting to over S2,000 were run upon the
 Farmers Trade Union stock of goods , at Laneburg. The failure of this
 house is to be regretted-short crops
 and poor collections, we learn, is the
 cause. MT. J. A. Nelson, one of our
 leading farmers, has been manager of the store the past year. Trust those interested may yet come out straight. No country paper in the State is
 better equipped than the PIcAYUNE.
 With power press, paper cutter,
 Peerless jobber, mailing machine, new type throughout, costing about S3,000, it is no trouble to get out a well printed, neat and interesting
 paper, second to no country weekly
 in the State. Its merit in this re- spect is acknowledged wherever it is read.
 Advertisers should remember that
 the Picayune is read every week by over 120O regular subscribers, be- sides as many more not subscribers. If 1200 printed postal cards, contain
 ing business mans adv, were sent
 out, it would cost Sl4. One-thrd
 of this amount would give the same notice, in this paper, to many more
 people. Advertise and push your business.
 , In strolling up West Main street
 Saturday, we noticed some pretty
 cedars and eight or nine large forest
 trees, in yard and in front of resi- dence of Ira k. McMillion--trans-
 planting of these ornamental and
 shade trees had just been done by
 Mir. C. D. Gulley. MT. McMilllon
 already had one of the most elegant homes in town, and these nice trees
 will add new beauty and attractive
 ness to it.
 A letter from Dr. J. A. Pipkin, at Abiline, Texas, says tranfer his pa
 per to that place. So we conclude he has already moved out there. Dr. P. has many friends here who wish him well, he having practiced medi- . cine here for several years. There are few better or more successful
 physicians than he, and with 1t he is,
 too, a most clever, kind hearted, Christian gentleman. Abiline is to be congratulated in securing him as citizen.
 Among our friends who have paid for the PICAyUNE the past two weeks
 are: J. F. Shell, Emmet; H. H. Woodul, J. W. Hudson, J. M. Dan- iel, J. P. Woosley, Laneburg; w. A. Dean, Delta J. C.IKelly, Bough- ton; J. A. Smith, J. F. Cromwell,
 l.. A. Owens, r. H. James, Wallace burg; J. P. Barr, w. H. Huling,
 w. N. Gurley, T. J. Roe, P. k. Bry-
 son, c. F. Newth, J. c. Drake, Cal ; vim Jones, and others, Prescott. We
 return our thanks to each. Mir. George F. Clarke will, on January 5th, open class and give a
 thorough business course to quite a
 number of our young men. This
 course includes bookkeeping, pen manship, mathematics, joint stock company business, lumber books, etc. r Our young men should avail them selves of this opportunity to gain a practical knowledge of business. MT.
 Clarke is well known here, and he is
 well prepared to teach the Draughon
 system, as he has just completed a full course thereln.
 A PRESENT TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS. - We have prepared in our own office 3 an appropriate little present to our subscribers-a neat calendar for the
 year 1891. We send them out this week by mail, so as to be ready for use at beginning of the new year. Often people in the country have no
 such calendar, having to rely upon an almanac to learn day of month. Cal endar we present can be placed where it may easily be seen daily, and thus
 prove convenience. Trust our : friends will accept this little token oi remembrance with our best wishes ' for Merry Christmas and Happy r New Year.
