Some people have some queer ideas
about newspapers. They subscribe for
them, take them year after year and
when they want to stop, send them back
marked Refused" or tell the postmaster
to do so for them, without thought Of
paying for what they owe. No honest
man ever stopped paper that way. An
honest man will call or write, ascertain
how much he owes, pay it and stop the
paper like man, which he has perfect
right to do.
