Owing to the very unsatisfactory experience The County Rec- * ord has had in the past in col- , lecting its bills for the publication of Summonses for Relief, Citation Notices, Notices to Creditors and applications by administrators for Final Discharge, we have determined that such notices must hereafter be paid for in advance. The three last named notices pertain strictly to the affairs of dead men and women and in many instances the living doesn't seem to care whether they are ever settled for or not?judging from the length of time many of them remain unpaid on our books. These notices are charged for at a fixed rate, as follows: Citation Notices I? $4.50 Notices Final Discharges - 4.50 Notice to Creditors 3.00 Kf BRING ALL TOUR FAT, LAZY HENS TO MILLER'S MARKET.? . 18# THE POUND. - * AIRS IS ALL PROFIT IN LUMBER "one-time" everlasting Ind* oa "Tfcfc WW Crprw?yoa can I4? ... ^ dfr it br thh Mk ? further repair bills and " | "lli but once." ntime Insist on " CYPRESS it purpose you buy.
