$1,000"

Many of the patrons of the Post Office
will remember the above line written
under box rent notice over the delivery
window at the Post Office.
Well, what,o of it2 Why, simply this:
That Mr.. Young, who is too kind and
obliging to give any of his customers
trouble, was compelled to ,adyance
$1,000 out of his own pocket in order
to make his report to Washineysnv OH
had right to close all boxes on which
rent was due, June 30th, but he ,tlAd
not exercise his right, and hence was
compelled to advance the money, and
carry over the amount. Now here il
one of our business troubles and en-
barrassments. We don't pay our debts
when we could and ought to. AS in
this case, we dom think of it, and if
we do, we conclude, that as the amount
is so small ,as in this case, that it mukes
little difference, forgetting that large
number of little bills out make a big
difference to the man who is CARRYING
tiiciis ~ ~ hO iiiuCn tltSleT 1Or one num-
dred men to carry one man, than for
one man to carry a hundred men. This
applies with great force to newspaper
subscriptions. A subscription list of n
thousand means, thousand dollars to
the publisher, and yet he is expected to
carry this thousand dollar debt, and is
allowed to do SO, without any cnm-
punctious of concience, apparently, on
the part of the subscribers. Even rich
men, and every newspaper list contains
hundreds of these, will not pay their
small debts until the very last and then
growl wher asked for the money
These very people who are so slow to
pay you are generally prompt and ener-
getic to collect amounts due them.
There is phase of dishonesty and in
justice in this method of busines con-
cuct which people claiming to be honest
do not seem to think Of. Bro. Young
will get his money. but he will have to
send Dir. Royal after it. 1II

Splitter il representingt the publishing
house of Is. Il. Johnson ~ Co., Of
Richmond. This house Is publish
ing, and aiming to introduce a new
series Of School books into the pub
lie schools of the State, and the
South. Every one who has had ex>
perience along this line knows that
the entire school book question needs
overhauling. We have repeatedly
sad that our school books are too
high, and at the same time not well
adapted to our necessities. We have
examined several Of the new books
of fthe Johnson Publishing Co. and
do not hesitate to say, that in our
Judgement, they arc superior to
those we have now. Especially ia
this true OF the history of the Unit
ed States, by Mrs. Lee. This histo-
ry Is true statement of facts, and
being such, is of course just to the
South,as no school history published
since the war, has been. We sim
cercly hope the Johnson Publishing
Co. may succeed in their laudable
effort to give us cheap and better
books for our schools.
