A Card of Thanks.

EVERY reader of THE News knows
that where Paris interests are concerned
THE NEWS has been jealous in leading,
or seconding the efforts of others, in all
legitimate schemes to promote the City's
prosperity. For year after year many
columns have been devoted TO extolling
the manifold advantages of a residence
in this community, and no opportunity
has been neglected by TIE NEWS to lend
helping hand.
And right here the present manage
ment of THE News extends thanks pub
licly, as we have already in person, to
the respective County officers and depu-
ties and Court officials and every mem
Der cf the Paris bar, for their numerous
cOurtesies and substantial patronage
extended THE News without exception
by every one Of them, both Democrats
and publicans-shOwing their hearty
appreciation of all our efforts in the
CeuntY's behalf And heartily do we
thank them, one and all. 1t is pleasant
indeed to have these worthy gentlemen
to voice their praise of The NEWS, but
when their kind wishes are backed up
up with substantial orders for adver-
Using and job work there is no mistak-
ing their sincerity Again do we thank
you, gentlemen.
And to the City Fathers, in their dis
tribution of the City's advertising and
City's job printing, for their favors. we
are thankful-to a degree commensu-
rate with their favors.
So we live and hope as the years pass
by. Maybe some day the City Fathers
will remember THE NEWS with bit of
the City's advertising and job printing.
Perhaps they'll discover their biased
favoriteism some day.
But we are thankful all the same, and
THE NEWS is still pounding away twice
a-week in behalf of our lovely City, and
right heartily do we push the interests
of dear old Bourbon County, too.
Now is the time to subscribe.
