We reproduce below the circular
letter OF Publishers Forbes and lsey-
nolds, Of QusrryvIlle (Pa.) Sun:
DEAK FRIKND:---
Quite number OF people have
the had habit of letting their sub
scription to newspaper run along
without paying any attention to the
label. We are sorry 10 Say that you
are one Of them.
DO you ever think Of the inconven-
fence 1t puts the printer to?
Take plain, everyday view of the
matter once.
Suppose you had 1000 bushels OF
wheat or potatoes, and that you did
the same as the newspaper publisher
-sold II out all over the country.
one bushel 10 each Individual, deliv-
cred, and he said he'd call and pay
for IL some time"
Now. the selling Is easy enough.
But some day you need $500 or 81, 900.
Then you run up against trouble.
You don't have time to 90 and see
each one ofyour individual customers.
You write them letter. To write
half OF them, 0O0-is q big job,
and then the paper and envelopes and
stamps will cost you s25, besides the
time lost.
That makes a pretty big item,
doesn't IL?
However, that Is not the worst of
It, You need that money the very
worst kinds
To your horror, but few of them
pay any attention to your letter.
Each one Of them apparently says to
himself: @Well, 1t doesn't suit me
just now. The amount l owe Is small
and 1t won't holp out much anyway.
I'll just let them wait"
That Is just our condition right
now. We need money. We have
large bills coming due to pay. Our
friends have failed to send their por-
tiOn.
Don't you see the predicament we
are In, and that unless you help us
out, we are going to get deeper 10
the mire?
We must pay for everything that
we use. II we fail to settle the first
of each month, we get no more credit,
that's all, and that's quite enough.
Now we are not willing to believe
that you mean to cripple us inten-
tionally. We presume it is just over.
sight; or, perhaps, you have never
looked at it the way it really affects.
We would like you to do to us just
the way you would want your neigh
Dor to do unto you. 1t gives US real
pleasure to give credit to those who
pay promptly; but we must have
money, and since paper has almost
doubled In price, we can't afford to
to wait long.
Now then just put dollar bill and
your name and postofflce address in
the envelope that came with this,
and mail to us right away.
Then we can pay our debts and
keep the machine a-going.
Yours very respectfully,
FORBES & REYNOLDS,
