Subscription Credits.— After send- 

 ing subscriptions to this office, we 

 would respectfully ask every one to 

 look at the label on the wrapper of the 

 next two papers, and there they will 

 find the credit indicated thus : Those 

 who have paid for the first six months 

 of this year will find " June 83 " after 

 their names. Those who have paid 

 for the whole year will find " Dec. 83 " 

 on their papers. The credit runs to 

 the end of the month indicated. 



The credit given on THAT LABEL 

 is a sufficient notitication of subscrip- 

 tions due and receipt for payments 

 made. If not so indicated within two 

 weeks after sending money to us, you 

 may be sure something is wrong, and 

 should write to us about it. It will 

 save annoyance and trouble if our 

 subscribers will give this matter due 

 attention.
