NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS

On or before the 10th day Of jan
uary. 1908, all subscriptions To the
Evening Star that are more than one
year in arrears will be discontinued
The subscription price of the Even
ing Star is 80 cents a month or So per
year IN ADVANCE. Hereafter the
two rates will be strictly enforced; il
one pays by the month it Will be so
cents. II he pays after several months
have elapsed the arrearage will be
charged al the monthly and not the
yearly, or advance rate. Several Of
our old friends are going 10 do with
out the Star unless their accounts are
paid up. At the present excessively
high prices Of paper. cost of labor
and material, ii is business suicide TO
carry people for two to four years for
a daily paper and then settle, if at all,
by paying the cash in advance rate
The paper is far better Off to cut off
all such Indifferent subscribers, and
the Star will do so in future.
Would your grocer sell you barrel
of -four at 10 per cent discount over
a twenty pound sack and let you owe
him several years for it? This is what
the newspaper often does. The major
ity of the Stars subscribers pay for
the paper year in advance some pay
quarterly in advance, others pay
monthly-either way is satisfactory.
1t costs too much to produce a paper
and the margin of profit is too small
to do a long credit business. All of
the papers throughout the country are
shutting off on il and the Star along
with others will do so in future.

A HAPPY SURPRISE

The brothers. Henry and William
Price were inseparable in life, and in
the death of the former the latter is
still bowed down with grief for his
lost brother, though his death occurred
four years ago at st. Petersburg.
What grieved the living brother most
was the absence of any likeness of
his brother to remember him by after
his departure from earth. He grieved
over the thought that both had been
SO forgetful and neglectful of having
q picture made. The surviving broth
er, William, sought high and low for
a picture of his dead brother, until
one day not long since, in conversa-
ton with Mr. Knox Cleveland who
knew Henry Price well. William men
toned the fact of his loss, when Mr..
Cleveland remarked: why, / can
supply you with a picture that con-
tainS your brothers likeness. While /
was running an engine over the San
ford & St. Petersburg railroad. one
day in the latter place I had a picture
of my engine taken and as we stood
nearly in front of the Price bakery,
and your brother was on the pavement
viewing the preparations. l invited
him into the cab and he proved the
best and most conspicuous face in the
group" Mr.. Cleveland wrote his
wife for the picture. but on search it
was found to have been sent to some
relatives in South Carolina, but a let
ter brought it back and now Mr.. Will
liam Price is guarding, to him, the
priceless object and in due time Mr..
n. l. Gottlieb will reproduce the like
ness of the departed Henry Price. and
which to the surviving brother will
be a treasure no money can buy. The
occurrence was indeed a happy sur
prise.

appreciation and heartfelt prayers for
the tender, loving care bestowed upon
her.

beautiful with the snow white linen
and silver with minis and sailed al
center of the table was a reflector
covered with diamond dust and around
it was laid holly. On the reflector
was a tall cut glass vase with long
