E ach day during the month of August we will send prepaid the premium 
described below to the club-raiser who sends the largest club for that day. 
' Renewals will count the same as new names for this contest, and two 6-month 
or four 3-month subscriptions will count the same as one yearly subscription. 
pv < that these specials are extra and in addition to all other 
' Id 11 DCr compensation. Each cluh-raiser will he entitled to his cash 
commissions or other regular premiums, and besides will 
get one of these special premiums the day that the club received from him is the 
largest received on that day. 
We give these extra inducements to close up the present subscription season, 
which in spite of the hard times has been one of the best The R. N.-Y. has ever 
had. This is in a large measure due to good friends who, for the most part, are not 
canvassers, hut who have induced their neighbors and friends to become subscribers. 
As an appreciation of the good work done for us by club-raisers, we close the 
subscription year with this special offer; and by September 1 we shall have new 
inducements to offer for next year’s campaign.
