The Steady Subscriber

How dear to our hearts is the

Who lays down the money and

Ard casts round the office halo

He never saws: Stop it; l can not

I'm getting more journals than

But ALWAYS says: Send it; all

In fact. we all think it help and

How it makes our pulse .throo;

We outwardly thank him; we in

The report that is being circu

would have to bnild a bridge across

bosh, there is no truth in such re
ports, and it looks like those who

looking for some excuse to kick
