NOTES.



The Editor thinks that there are still members who might help with the

Illustration Fund.


* * *


The Editor also thinks that as he does all the work for nothing, besides

paying from his own pocket for all the postage of the numerous letters he writes,

including those to the Publishers and Printers of the Magazine, that he need not

hesitate to urge members who can afford it, to help to defray the big expenses in

connection with the illustrations !

Another thing that occurs to the Editor’s mind is that some members have

apparently dropped out of their excellent habit of contributing Articles and

Notes, which retrogression is rather hard upon Mm ! and the Magazine !


* * *


Editors who make plenty of money also seem to receive plenty of “ copy.”

This is an unfair division of things. To work hard, and to receive neither one

nor the other is somewhat disheartening.
