TO Our Subscribers.

The time has come when it is alb
solutely necessary to call on our de.
lineuent subscribers to pay US what
they owe on subscription. We have
put off this disagreeable matter as
long as possible, but with the heavy
obligations facing US, it is imper-
ative that those who take the paper
come to our aid. We realize that con-
ditions are such that money is
scarce, but we have put the price of
the paper down as low as possible,
even if we collect from every sub
scriber in arrears. And, honestly,
we believe that nine-tenths of our
subscribers are able to pay the small
amount they owe US, but it is really
so small that some seem to think
that we don't need it. Remember.
friends, that while it means a few
cents to you. in the aggregate it
means over thousand dollars to US.
and unless we can collect these
small amounts from all of our
subscribers, our entire years work
goes for nothing.
We keenly appreciate the hard
times prevailing, as they hit US as
hard as any other class, and perhaps
a little bit harder than some, for
we have to buy every mouthful we
eat Except the gifts of our gener-
Gus friends once in while) and
every stick of wood we burn, besides
other necessaries. Provisions are
going up and everything in the way
of printing material is soaring along
with them. Only the price of the
paper remains the same, and we
are entitled to that-don't you
think so?
Don't wait on the other fellow,
now, but look at the label on your
paper and if you are behind please
let us hear from you.
Every month prices on paper and
i job stock are advancing. We have
to meet these bills on 80 days time
and at the low price we charge for jot
printing we cannot afford to carry
such items on our books, or oul
capital would soon be all tied up ir
book accounts. Therefore, we here
by give notice that all Job Work il
expected to be paid for, cash OF
delivery. This applies to every one

ANYTHING TO PLEASE A LADY
Manifold Troubles Of Militia Colonel
Who Aimed to Please All
He Knew.

Lady Hester Lucy Stanhope,
when staying at Walmer castle in
1904, quite unwittingly accom-
plished the feat of changing the uni
form of a regiment Of the county
militia. The anecdote, which illus
trates a curious streak of vanity in
old-time army officers appears in an
account Of Lady Stanhope's life by
Mr.. Frank Hamel.
Somebody asked me before great
many officers what l thought OF
them," said Lady Stanhope, "and l
said that they looked like 30 many
timed harlequins. One day, soon
after, I was riding through Walmer
village, when who should pop out
upon me but the colonel, dressed in
entirely new regimentals, with diff
ferent facings more like those of a
regiment of the line.
Pray pardon me- Lady Hester,
he began. So 1 stopped, and he
addressed me. Pray pardon me-
said the colonel, but.I wish to know
if you approve Of our new uniform.
Of course I made him turn about
and l inspected him round and
round-pointed with my whip as 1
sat on horseback, first here and there
told him the waist was too short
and wanted half a button more-the
collar was too high, and so on. And
in a short time the whole regiment
turned out with new clothes
