-THE CAUCASIAN greatly appre-
ciates the efforts that its friends put
forth to increase its support and USE
fulness. On ore day this week two
of our friends secured for US, each,
the name of new subscriber, ac-
by the cash. Both Of
these new subscribers are strangers
to us, one lives in Davie county, the
other in Fayetteville. Their atten-
ton was simply called to the merits
of the paper by our friends Messrs.
w. E. Bass and Thos. Owens re-
syectively. If all of Cur friends
would kindly assist us in the same
way we would soon have the 1900 |
subscribers that we are striving for,
An esteemed subscriber of
GoldsborO in private letter few
days since says: "THE CAUCASIAN"
is ever most welcome visitor and
is always read with a great deal of
interest. Mrs.---has threatened sever
al times to write and compliment
you on your "Womans Sphere" but
says that she cant find words suffi-
Gent to express her high appriecia-
ton of it. 10 fact we are very much
disappointed if the paper ever fails
to come. Well you may say, "show
your appreciation by RENTING
due me-" and every one of
your 100 subscribers should do so.
