INCREASING
ENTHUSIASM.
The Popular Girl Piano Voting
Contest Waxing Warm.
ALL THOROUGHLY INTERESTED
Miss Pace Wins Locket And Chain
Next Premium A Lady's
Gold Watch.

Enthusiasm III the popularity contest
is increasing daily, and as the time for
the close draws nearer, the young ladies
are redoubling their efforts.
What is more encouraging is the fact
their friends are also taking an active
part. This is always necessary to the
success of popular contest, and we are
glad have them join in the work.
Two weeks ending July II, we of.
fered nice gold locket and chain to
the young lady turning in the largest
list of names, new subscribers, renewals
and back subscriptions, by last Satur-
day night, and Miss Oral Pace was the
fortunate contestant. The young lady
desires to thank her friends for their 10y
atty, as do the others who are compet-
ing for the piano.
Our next special premium will be q
handsome $25 lady's gold watch, to be
given to the young lady sending in the
largest list of names, of new subscribers
renewals and back subscriptions, from
Monday morning, July 49, to Saturday,
July 81, at 6 O'Clock p. m. The con
test is now reaching the point which is
most important to all contestants. We
are offering this week ending Saturday
evening, July "A, at 6 O'Clock 10000
extra free votes with every SO turned
in on subscriptions-new subscribers,
renewals and back subscriptions. Next
week ending July 81 the same offer,
with the exception that the extra free
vote will be reduced to 5000, will be
made. The extra free vote will be given
to anyone for every $1,000 turned in
on subscriptions as stated The third
week the extra free vote will be reduced
to 5000 and diminished 1000 votes
each week until the close of the contest.
As we stated this is the most impor-
ant period of the contest. Everyone
AN readily see that the vote offered for
this week is the largest at
my time during the contest and the
argeSt that will be offered The work
lone this week will count more than at
my other time, and hence it is inn
,ortant that those contestants who are
eally in earnest do their best right now.
IeXt week the extra free vote will be
educed 10 per cent and 10 per cent
every week until the close.
No such free vote having heretofore
cen offered it is very plainly apparent to
veryone that the contest has, although
progress several weeks, Just practical
: begun as far as the vote is concerned.
therefore, the contestants have practi-
lilly even start. OF course there is a diff 8
renee in the vote, but when the vote
each contestant up to last week is I
impaired to the vote she may get this
eek there is nothing to discourage any
lie in the contest. A little extra effort I
is week or next may put anyone OF
em ahead. That is the reason why
would be useless to publish the stand
g of the contestants. $
We want to warn contestants and
cir friends to pay no attention what
er to rumors of resorting to unfair
cans or comforting special favors to
yorites in this contest. Nothing of !"
e kind will be allowed. The young
lies who get the largest number of l
ties, which simply means the ones
10 do the most work, will receive the y
mos. The young lady in the city "
10 wins the piano must be the one
10 gets the largest number Of sub
iptionS, and subscriptions mean new n
renewals and back sub
iptions. Also the young lady out pl
e of the city who wins her piano HI
