THE  RURAL  NEW-YORKER 
i93 
TO  CLUB  RAISERS. 
IN  answer  to  many  inquiries  from  sub* 
scribers  forming  clubs,  we  reply 
briefly:  (1.)  Subscriptions  maybe  (and 
should  be)  sent  to  The  R.  N.-Y.  as  fast 
as  received,  and  when  the  requisite  num¬ 
ber  has  been  sent  to  entitle  the  sender  to 
the  premium  desired,  then  the  premium 
will  be  forwarded.  (2.)  We  keep  careful 
accounts  with  every  subscriber  who  sends 
in  more  than  his  own  subscription.  (3.) 
The  club  raiser  may  send  in  advance  the 
money  for  his  club  and  the  premium 
wanted,  and  forward  the  names  as  se¬ 
cured  ;  the  premium  will  be  forwarded  at 
once.  *  * 
THOSE  NEW  ADDRESS  LABELS  are 
being  set  in  type  rapidly,  so  that  by  them 
subscribers  may  see  the  exact  day  and 
month  to  which  their  subscriptions  are 
paid — a  much  better  system  than  the  old 
by  which  only  the  number  of  the  paper 
was  shown.  But  the  list  is  so  big  that  it 
will  still  require  soipe  weeks  before  all 
are  set  in  the  new  type.  Until  then  we 
trust  that  our  subscribers  will  be  patient 
with  the  occasional  delays  in  the  changes 
of  dates  on  the  address  labels. 
*  * 
THE  CARMAN  GRAPE  PREMIUM  is 
“  taking”  so  well  that  we  urge  upon  club 
raisers  to  persevere  in  their  efforts  to 
enlarge  their  clubs  and  to  form  new  ones, 
which  under  this  splendid  offer  is  proving 
quite  an  easy  matter.  Clubs  may  be 
added  to  at  any  time  during  the  season.* 
Every  yearly  subscriber  is  entitled  to 
the  grape  vine.  None  of  the  vines  will 
be  offered  for  sale  at  less  than  $5  each. 
Some  Letters. 
I  thank  The  Rural  for  the  lovely  set  of  dishes— 
113  pieces.  1  got  THE  RURAL  and  dishes  for  *15,  and 
I  cannot  get  as  nice  a  set  here  for  $20.  They  came 
safely  by  freight ;  not  even  one  was  cracked.— Mrs. 
M.  R.,  Presque  Isle,  O.  • 
The  watch  has  come  to  hand  all  right,  and  I  am 
perfectly  satistled.  I  am  sure  The  Rural  has  saved 
me  $15  If  not  $20.  Many  thanks.— W.  F.  JENNINGS, 
Peoria  Co.,  Ill. 
The  wall  desk  arrived  In  good  condition.  1  am  very 
much  pleased  with  it.  It  Is  far  ahead  of  what  I  ex¬ 
pected  and  well  worth  the  cost  of  both  the  desk  and 
The  Rural.— Ira  O.  Johnson,  Kent  Co.,  Mich. 
The  watch  Is  a  beauty.  Many  thanks  for  sending 
so  nice  a  watch. — H.  G.  Weiske,  Ohio  Co.,  W.  Va. 
The  Combination  Map  which  you  sent  me  is  a 
wonderful  and  valuable  article,  worth  many  times 
its  cost  to  any  student  of  geography  and  history.  An 
experience  of  14  years'  work  as  teacher  makes  me 
feel  able  to  judge  of  Its  merits.— M.  F.  Emerson, 
Bixby,  Ill. 
The  sewing  machine  came  very  promptly  and  after 
a  little  over  two  weeks’  use,  it  seems  to  be  all  that 
was  claimed  for  it. — E.  C.  BEACH,  Cortlaudt  CO.,  N.  Y. 
FASHIONS  IN  CHILDREN’S  CLOTHES. 
An  invaluable  help  for  those  mothers  who  strive  to 
keep  their  children  well  and  fashionably  dressed  at 
small  expense,  is  Diamond  Dyes.  It  is  through  their 
use  that  so  many  children  have  clothes  of  the  fash¬ 
ionable  colors.  Little  suits,  cloaks,  etc.,  are  easily 
made  from  faded  or  half-worn  clothes,  and  when 
colored  with  these  dyes  cannot  be  told  from  new. 
“  It’s  easy  to  dye  with  Diamond  Dyes,”  is  a  familiar 
saying  in  thousands  of  homes.  They  are  the  great 
money-savers  of  the  age,  and  never  fail  to  give  satis¬ 
faction  when  the  simple  directions  are  followed. 
Old-fashioned  dye-stuffs,  and  crude  imitations  of 
Diamond  Dyes  should  be  avoided,  as  they  lead  to 
trouble  and  disappointment.  Prudent  people  prefer 
to  do  their  dyeing  with  Diamond  Dyes  rather  than  be 
to  the  trouble  and  expense  of  sending  to  a  dyer. — Adv.
