Be kinj to y,ur neighbor and len'
him your paper to read. II he does no
take it don't humiIiaie him by compelling
him to ask for il, but lay it down wher
he can find ii as soon as he wants il
Don't be so uncharitabe as to hide il
because he is just as able to pay for it a
you are. Undoubtedly he has privat
reasons for not taxing it. Perhaps h
has conscientious scruples against payin
money for paper he can read fc
nothing. Perhaps he is angry at tn
editor for saying too much about hir
Cor not enough) or the mean thing ma
have shown his ingratitude for a lon
unpaid subscription, by cutting him of
in which case, "the paper don't amour
to anything and he wont have the dirt
thing in his house" But he wants
read it all the more on that accoun
just to see what the fool has to say. II
has right to think it good enough
read and criticize, though not goc
enough to take and pay for. So hume
the fellow and give him your paper
read. You may get your back up
the editor and want the compliment r
turned some day.-Woodward jefferson
