THE OOLOGIST. 



For obtaining' New Subscribers 

 the OOLOGIST. 



We are anxious to obtain as many new sub- 

 scribers to the OoLOGist as possible during the 

 season of 1888. 



In another column we offer the choice-of 30 prem- 

 iums to every person remitting 50c in payment 

 for the Oologist for one year. Now if our friends 

 will go to work and get their friends to accept 

 this offer, we will give them in addition to the 

 premiums we give new subscribers, for the name 

 of each and every new subscriber they send us ac- 

 companied with 50c to pay for the Oologist one 

 year with premium, the choice of any one of the 

 premium offers, No's l to 30 inclusive: or for 3 new 

 subscribers and 10c additional to pay postage and 

 packing, we will give either of premiums No. 31 

 to 40, or any four of premiums No's l to 30. 



To avoid any misunderstanding we will give 

 the following example, viz:— We will suppose 

 that Wm. Smith is a subscriber of the Oologist, 

 and knowing the great value of the little Month- 

 ly and what valuable premiums are given to 

 each subscriber, he, (Smith, goes to his friend 

 Chas. Jones, and shows him the Oologist and 

 tells him all about It and the premiums. Now, 

 Mr. Jones at once sees the great value of the 

 Oologist and in fact cannot see how he ever got 

 along without it: he hands his Friend Smith soc 

 tellinir him to send by next mail for the Oologist 

 and that as premium he would like No. 8 (an egg 

 of the Black Skimmer). Mr. Smith at once com- 

 plies with his Friend Jones' request, and writes 

 i o the Publisher of the Oologist and adds, that 

 for obtaining his friend's subscription he would 

 like premium No. 13 (an alligator's egg). 



The publisher of the Oologist upon receipt of 

 Mr. Smith's letter, places the name of Chas. 

 Jones on his books, and s^nds by return mail to 

 Mr. Jones, copies of me Oologist and premium 

 No. 8 (or any other premium ho may wish) and 

 to Mr. smith the premium No. 13, which he pre- 

 lerred. Tnis transaction is a very simple one, 

 and three parties are very much pleased over It. 



1st. Chas Jones, who considers the premium 

 he receives as a gift, for he knows that the 

 Oologist is well worth more than the 50c which 

 the whole cost him. 



2d. Wm. Smith, on account, of his Friend 

 Jones' pleasure, and again to think how easily he 

 obtained a premium worth 25c for, really, doing 

 his friend a favor, and 



3d. The publisher of the OoLoarsT feels that 

 lils labors in behalf of the Collectors of America 

 tire being appreciated, and having the wellfare 

 of the Collector at heart, he knows that this sub- 

 scription counts one more toward the required 

 itiuu which, when obtained the Oologist will don 

 a suitable cover, thus adding four more pages of 

 valuable reading matter to each of Its monthly 

 visits, pleasing hundreds of its readers. 



Kind reader you either know not or do know how 

 easy a matter it Is to carry out the above in 

 reality, we wish you would try the experiment on 

 some collector friend, and the truth of the above 

 will be verified to you. 



Sample copies of the Oologist will be cheer- 

 fully furnished to all who will use them to an 

 advantage. 



See premiums ottered to parties sending the 

 greatest number of subscilbers before August 10.
