INTRODUCTION BY A FRIEND.

SO treat him with civili-t,
And lie will tell you what he knows,
His ideas of utili-t,
And how and where the money goes.
CARRIERS ADDRESS.
Please don't forget, kind patron friends,
We scarcely are an cnti-t,
But we will Try to make amends
And prove our own idcnti-t.
You SEQ this is our first attempt
In writing poetry or prose,
Which goes to prove we've been exempt
From saying where tho money goes.
Please don't forget tits Christmas tide,
Tho birth of Clristiani-t,
Lot no petition DC denied
Appealing to humani-t,
Give to the needy and tho poor
For giving to tho least of those
VIII bring blessing to your door,
If that's tho way your money goes.
And don't forget our dear old State,
Stand by her to ctcrni-t,
What Ger her lot, what c'cr her fate,
a staunch and true fratcrni-t;
Because our State is right, you bet,
Il fact her former record shows;
Oconce pays the County debt,
The proper way her money goes.
Who come to our locali-t,
Both old and young, and great and small
We're glad of pluralit
You sec we know that they have come
And settled here because they chose,
TO make themselves a happy homo,
The best of ways their money goes.
Now don't forget to go to church
And manifest your pic-t,
And thus be free from soil or smirch
And likewise notoric-t;
Because we all should learn Gods laws,
And chccrfully should give to those
Who aid the missionary cause,
And that's the way the money goes.
And don't forget TO send 10 school
And cultivate mcntai-t,
Though you may write us down fool,
You'll find it rcali-t;
because if children are not taught
TO know more than some other knows,
You'll find the whistle dearly bought,
And that's the way your money goes
Now don't forget the legal corps,
They practice with avidi-t:
They rant and growl, and snap and roar,
With rancor and acidi-t;
Because they wear SO fierce a look
blows;
They got their fees by h,ok or crook,
And that's the way the money goes.
And don't forget the doctors stan,
Some of them practice chari-t,
While others knowledge is but chan,
And quacking and hlari-t;
Because they give Il bitter pill,
And poke their drugs beneath your
nose;
They then bring in Il lengthy bill,
And that's the way your money goes.
Now don't forget the merchant class.
They sell YOU with impuni-t,
They live in houses made of glass.
And do charge the communists
Because on profit they are bent.
They sell you hats and shoes and clothes.
They clear their wontcd one per cent,
And that's the way your money goes.
And don't forget the editors,
They strive to give varic-t,
They do their best, each one ayers,
TO benefit sOcic-t;
They're economical, and yet
They scarcely make their food and
clothes;
But then they pay for what they get,
And that's the way their money goes.
So don't forget to pay your dues
The earliest opportuni-t;
For then you can enjoy the news.
And read it with impuni-t;
And get your ncighbors to subscribe.
And place their names along with those
Who useful knowledge do imbihc,
No better way thcir money goes.
And don't forget to advertise,
And thus secure proSpcri-t;
Take our advice, il YOU arc wise,
You'll find it is a vcri-t.
If you don't advertise, begin
TO bring your business to Il close,
For they who do, will rake it in,
For that's the way the money goes.
Now don't forget the farming band,
The backbone of postcr-t,
The bone and sincw C the land
For they dcscW, prC,pcri-t;
Though they have but slender chance.
The middlcmcn on them impose
And sell them nicknacls in advance,
And so the farmers money goes.
And don't forget the workingmcn
The medium Of vital-t;
They are not millionaircS. but then
They do not lack frugali-t.
Their wives and daughters like to dress
And spend their earnings on their
clothes,
They make Il show. we do confess.
And that's the way their money goes.
And don't forget to patroniHc
Home industry with lOyal-t:
For then you may obtain the prize
That ranks ahead of royal-t
And never send abroad to get
What in our region better grows:
For il You do, you Just may bet,
That that's the way the money goes.
Now don't forget you once were young
And full of life and iolli-t.
Nor blame MS if we have our fun.
or rather stronger quali-t;
because you know boys will be boys,
And foolish Everybody knows;
We buy our squibS and Christmas toys.
And that's the way our money goes.
Now don't forget rs, for YOU know
We've served YOU with humili-t,
And if we've failed why we can show
We're lacking in abili-t.
Just give us fifty cents or so,
And II you notice, we suppose,
That when you sec the way tgc 60,
You'll see the way you money goes.
