only when deposited on the 9Th or 10Th
OF this month. Don't send them in either
before OF after that date, as they will
be destroyed. This Is the surprise OF
which we told you yesterday. and we
want 90 warn you that you must not
stop getting subscriptions simply because
Of this increase IN the number OF votes
which the ballots viii give you. You
won't be the only one who VIII clip these

doing the same. and II you want 10 get
ahead and stay ahead you must bring IN

have IN the past.
There are number Of contestants who
have been doing so we'll since the contest
started that we fully expected 20 see
them IN the Offices OF the contest depart
ment last Tuesday night. but IN this we
were disappointed They did not seem
90 appreciate the fact that the extra
vote period was 20 close that night. and
that the vote scale was higher al that
time than IL viii be Sgaiu during the
contest. They viii miss the votes they
didn't get then. and VIII have 20 work
harder now than they would have had
they brought IN a few SIS or $50 clubs
before TIE extra vote period closed. How
ever. the mischief is done. and the only
way 10 repair Il is 10 get busy now and
keep busy during the remainder OF the
contest
Il you are not 90 so anyway.
The Washington herald., 1909-06-04

How much nearer are you 20 winning
your prize now than you were at the
time the extra vote period opened? Have
you fallen back or forged ahead even
farther IN advance Of the others than you
were then? II you have been working
as you should the latter Is more than
likely the case with you. Don't you feel
great deal better when you are ahead
than you do wnen you are behind? When
you once find your name among the lead
ers II is more OF an incentive 10 work
than when you are barely making a show
ing. The anticipation OF winning is cal
culated 10 make you work harder than
the prospect or losing. and you should
not be satisfied with the winning OF any
thing less than one OF the grand prizes.
Don't wait. now. until the close OF the
second vote period to start IN IN earnest
You won't get as many votes during that
period as you have been getting. unless
you work harder Get. the votes while
they can be had for the minimum amount
Of work Tho labor-saving proposition
is one that should receive a great deal
Of thought from you. and II you give It
what Il should have you won't wait until
the second vote period is over before
you get 70 work.

Last Monday Miss Frances A GarwOod.
OF New York, called on the italian Am
bassador here, and asked him II he knew
anything about a certain Italian noble
man. She explained she was interested
because her sister intended 70 marry the
man.
The Ambassador had never heard Of
the so-caIed nobleman, but some one in
the Embassy vaguely recollected having
heard his name. and thought he lived IN
New York. The Ambassador then tele-
graphed 20 New York. presumably 10 the
consulate general. On Tuesday he re-
ceived q reply that the man in question
was known there.
The message said he was not an Italian
by birth or citizenship, bat was a nat
uralized American, and was born IN
Austria. He is about sixty years old.
There was also a supposition that he
already has a wife in New York. where
he lived for several years. Further than
this no information was obtained as to
his indentity.

State Department refuse to make public
