or not. We promised them 81 page
paper for our Christmas edition and
expected to make good, but suddenly
becoming short of help, we found that

However these "a pages look pretty
good to us and we trust our readers
will find enough in them to make up
the deficit y lot of hard work has
been done and good many dollars ex-
pended and it is the earnest wish of ye

be satisfied. We desire to thank our
merchants for their representation in
our columns and trust that their re-
turns may be manifold.
