One of our subscribers says in a letter before us: "My subscription expired Jan. 1, 190H, but please don'tstop the paper until I can come down and renew, which I will do as soon as my wife recovers from a spell of sickness." Stop,yonr paper friend, well hardly. We would rather cat our rations down to two meals a day than to cut off a straigh-forward, honest man like that. We have no uneasiness about a man like you, we will bank all on your coming up.
