 If you are not subscribing to The Daily and Sunday Advertiser, an order from you on the same coupon, will have the effect of starting 1t to you immediately on the arrival of your remittance to this office. On the other hand, if you should happen to have friend who is taking The Advertiser, advise him that you are willing candidate, or are likely to be- come such, and that bunch of votes may start the ball a rolling to & successful finish in your behalf.

One dollar will pay for twenty votes, and credit one doi- lar on subscription. But the best way to count fast is to pay one years subscrfp- ton, amounting to s7.so. and vote 156 times for your choic..
 A trip to the mountains or the sea shore during the hot summer, months, is attrac- to any one, and the persons winning the prizes offered by The Advertiser will fn- deed be fortunate, as the points selected have been made with a great deal of care. The hotel accommodations with the de- lightful surroundings of each, are we'll known to be the best the country affords, and should be the means of untold pleas ure as a receration spot for at least two
 
 weeks. +
 The consolation prizes were selected with an eye to not only being instructve to the winners of the railroad tickets to and from these points, but also with view of enabling each visitor to be we'll repaid for the time taken in making these trips.
