Where You Get Yours.

One advantage in placing maga-
zine subscriptions with general sub
scription agency is that you can place
one subscription or one dozen or any
number you may care to, for as many
different periodicals all in one order
Instead of having to send separate
order to publisher of each periodical
-one letter, one remittance, one
stamp covers it all. At the same
time you get the benefit of any club
rates that may apply to the periodi-
icals you want. Mr.. A. M. Black has
established such an agency in Tazc-
well and is in position to make you
the lowest price obtainable on any
periodical or combination of period
icals. You do not even have to take
the trouble to figure the club price
of your magazines, just make out n
list of the ones you wantto order and
send it to Mr.. Black. He will let you
know by return mail the lowest price
at which such list can be gotten. A
trial order will convince you that the
service offered by the A. M. Black
Subscription Agency of Tazewell is
the equal of any.
