TRADING ON THIRTY DAYS RE-
SUMED.

The Executive Committee, for State
HIf47.,. in session Sept. 22i, have in
s+ruc--3 me to fill all orders On thirty
DAYS time as heretofore for Business
AGENTS who have approved bonds in
nv Office. or who may execute such
bonds as shall, after careful eXamina-
ton. pass my approval, provided this
shall not apply TO any Agent who Is in
arrears on account.
Now il every new bond shall have
upon it the seal of the Alliance from
which it comes, and certificate Of
County Clerk also attached, it will
greatly expedite the filling Of first
orders on each bond. On all the blank
bonds recently sent out by me you will
find the words OFFICIAL Place ALI
ance seal over SEAL. this. When
a brother makes an order on thirty
DAYS his account and bond will be close
IL 8crutinized and if they do not appear
entirely satisfactory, then l am not
allowed to ship goods on them.
Let me insist that 10 brother abuse
this privilege. If you are not sure
that YOU will be able to meet your bills
80 DAYS from date, then do not order on
your bond. I do not like to force col
lections, but will be compelled to do it
in case of default. / can not pay for
your goods unless you pay me. You
must know by this time how it is that
we have been able to do such a volume
Of business with no money invested.
1t has been simply by meeting our en-
gagements promptly and on time.
That Is the secret Of success with your
State Agency. And this rule must not
be Ui0lUted, Don't wait 80 days after
yau have received the goods before
you set about getting up the money to
pay for them. Your bond does not.
allow that, but says 80 days from
date Of bill" Remember that the
none must reach me 1Uithin the 80
days.
Olcgurse you can place your orders
at any time Of the month you choose,
but It Is preferable to this Office that
you place them at the first of month if
possible.
Before 30 days from this time you
viii need your winter shoes. Why
not place orders at once and thus allow
sum lent time, SO that your shoes will
De on hand when needed.
Now, brethren, I shall try to r
your interests, and thereby the great
Alliance, by doing all in my power to
GUY for you anything you may wish
al I1e very l)west price. We shall ex-
poet You to do yOur part.
Fraternally.

Business Agents would save time
and trouble if they would use printed
stationery. 1t costs very little more
than that they now use, and is much
more convenient. Letters occasionally
come to us without being signed, some
times they contain money, and we are
put to some inconvenience to find out
the sender. Printed stationery saves
all this trouble. We are now prepared
to send you, postpaid,
100 sheets of note paper, padded,
with name and number of your ALI
ance and name of Business Agent or
Secretary nicely printed on it,
100 nice envelopes, printed,
1 lead pencil,
1 pen holder,
5 pen points,
5 blotters, all for the small sum of 81.
