The Courier at Half Price.

Subscriptions TO the COURIER,
under our special offer of one year
for 80 cents cash, if paid during
NOVEMBER. continue to roll in
at the rate of five and ten day.
This has proven the most popular
subscription-getter we have ever
introduced.
The COURIER is worth every
penny of dollar year, even if
contained nothing but advertise
ments, as a dollar could be saved
at any public sale advertised in our
columns.
November has been rather dull
month with us during preceding
years, and the idea of offering the
COURIER for 90 cents to subscribers
who come in during that month,
has made us a good business.
Tell all your friends who do not
take the COURIER that they can get
it for an entire year by paying sc
cents in cash during NOVEMBER.
This offer only holds good this
month.
After that time the usual price
of 81 in advance will prevail.
