We have given away hundreds of dollars worth of advertising for these money-raising affairs during the past five years, but we are unable to contmnue it and get out a good paper without raising the subscription p~rice. We must reserve our space for news for our subscribers. The rate for this class of advertising is one cent a word for the first insertion and one-half cent a word for each subsequent in sertion, cash to accompany ad~vertise ment. Please do not ask us to deviate from this rule. Red Cress Seal Rhymes There was a man in our town And he was wondrous wise, He bought his Red Cross Christmas In very large supplies.
