We want to double the subscription list of the Ornithologist during 

 the next three months, 



So Make the Following Offer: 



To any subscriber who will send us a new subscriber with the full 

 subscription rate, $i.OO, we will return a credit slip for $0.75 in each case, 

 and the said slips shall be good for payment for any specimens we handle or 

 advertise in the O. & O. during 1892. We believe that this opens a way 

 for many of our young collectors to procure a fine collection.
