A KLONDYKE AT HOME. 
Many people are now going to Klondyke in Alaska in search of gold. 
Where one finds it, thousands fail, many die, all suffer terrible hardships. 
We are going to give you a chance to make more money right at home 
in comparative comfort than one out of a thousand will make in Alaska, 
and no risk about it either. Read below, and you will see that every 
person will be rewarded surely according to his efforts. 
ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS 
in cash will be awarded January 15 to agents for clubs sent in for The Rural New-Yorker between October 15, 1897, 
and January 15, 1898, including both days, 
for new names. The 
This will be in addition to commissions and also in addition to extra rebates 
$ 1 , 000.00 
will be divided as follows 
First Premium, 
Third Premium, 
$ 200.00 
75.00 
Second Premium, 
Fourth Premium, 
The agent who sends us the largest club between these dates will get the $200; next largest, $125; 
next, $75, and next $50. Then 
will be divided among the other agents who send 20 or more names, in proportion ^ r\r\ 
to the number of names sent by each. The larger the club the larger the premium ; and vJbV-Jv/ 
will be divided among those who send 10 or more, but less than 20, in proportion to the number of names sent by each. 
$300.00 
A PREMIUM FOR EVERY CLUB OF TEN OR MORE. 
We believe that every club of 20 will draw a premium of more than $5, and that clubs 
of 10 will draw a premium of more than $2, Of course, the larger the club the larger the 
premium, and as it is just possible that some large clubs will compete for the $300 
and take a larger proportion than we expect, we will make all agents sure by guaran¬ 
teeing a $5 premium for clubs of 20 or more, and a $2 premium for clubs of 10 or more. 
In addition to the above premiums, we will allow the regular commission of 15 cents on each name sent in, and we will 
return a one-dollar bill as a rebate for every five new yearly subscriptions sent during this contest. 
REST OF THIS YEAR FREE.—From now on, we will send the paper from the time the order is received to January 1, 
1899, to new yearly subscribers. This inducement will help agents in looking for new names. 
The subscription price of The Rural New-Yorker is 
ONE DOLLAR A YEAR, 
and no agent is authorized or allowed to accept less than the regular full subscription price of the paper. We will not knowingly 
accept the orders of any agent who breaks this rule, neither will we allow any such agent to compete for premiums. We are 
willing to pay for work actually done by any agent or friend who is inclined to help us, just as the farmer pays for selling his 
fruit, his grain or other crop, and as the manufacturer pays for selling his goods ; but without a big subscription list and a large 
advertising patronage, it would be impossible to make a paper like The Rural New-Yorker, even for $1 a year. 
You may always guarantee that The Rural New-Yorker will please new subscribers. If not satisfied after reading it three 
months, we will stop it and return their full dollar. Give them a receipt to this effect if they want it. 
We always stop tbe paper when time expires, unless requested to continue by the 
subscriber. If for any reason, we send an extra number or two, no charge is made for it. 
General subscription agencies are not allowed to compete for these premiums, neither will two or more agents be allowed 
to combine clubs for them. It must be for individual work only. Names mailed the last day will count if you wire that they are 
mailed. We count upon the basis of yearlies ; six-months’ orders count one-half, and three-months’, one-quarter of a yearly. All 
names must be paid for at net rates to count for premiums. Keep commissions when remitting with lists. 
Now, here is a fair field with good pay sure for every one ; and big inducements for those who roll up their sleeves and go 
to work in earnest. Success to every one according to his efforts.
