/ ly for the past 10 days The effiuent
when seen discharging into the river
after passing through the filter beds
IS as clear as spring water. The city

What forcible confession. that old
newspapers are rapidly accumulating
was made by the gentle Wauwatosan
in last week S issue of the Independent,
in the ''offer to sell some old, rejected,
stereOtped write ups cheap to the
mayor attorney street commissioner
town clerk combination" It's too bad
that subscrib bers are scarce. but if the
party making the offer will call on the
attorney it may be to her advantage.
Fearing that the call win not be forth
coming, the attorney suggests that If
the subscription price of Isl. 80 per year
in advance is causing subscribers to
part company with their first love and
thus bringing about a condition Of
some old, rejected, stereotypcd write
ups for sale cheap" possibly a lowering
Of the price to say % cents per year
will lessen the condition. If this RENE
dy should prove Of no avail, another IS
suggested. Old papers when carefully
tied in separate weekly issue bundles
Of sufficient size, are believed TO be
worth at least one and onc-haf cent
per ton for the gable seed which they
contain. 1t is possible that this ;vouid
be the more remunerativc way Of d.--
posing of those old, rejected, stereo-
typed write ups" What big pile Of
papers there will be when that boom
edition Of $500 or 1900 copies is bund-
led up and ready for delivery
