After December I, 1913, tfU subscriptions to the Danbury Reporter will be discon tinued when the time paid,for has expired. This policy which has been in contempla tion by the publishers for several years, has been adopted by all the leading papers of the country. It has always been a problem with the publishers of the Reporter. Some people get mad if you do not send the paper on indefinitely and wait until it is their convenience or pleasure to pay up. But there is another class who demand that the paper be sent to them no longer than the time paid for. The great drawbacks to the credit plan are the misunderstandings that so often result, and the great expense and labor of collecting so many small sums. After considering the matter during an experience of a number of years, the Repor ter believes it will meet with the approval of a great majority of the readers to prompt ly discontinue all papers at their expiration, unless otherwise ordered. This will be the invariable policy of the paper in the future. Everybody, rich and poor, will be be treat ed alike. All subscriptions now on our books un collected, must be settled by December I, otherwise they will be promptly stopped. Due notice will be given to every subscriber before the paper is discontinued, giving them the opportunity to pay up and have the paper come on. There are hundreds of names on our books of men who have been taking the Reporter for years, and which are as good as gold. In requiring them to pay in advance we do not mean any discourtesy in the world. It does not mean that we are afraid to trust them, as we are not, but it only means that in adopting the rule of Stop-When-the-Time- Is-Out, we are bound to treat everybody alike, and are trying to carry out a rule which we feel will prove more satisfactory to everybody hi the end. We trust that YOU will consider the matter in its proper light, and that YOU will co-operate with us in this change which means so much to the paper from a business point of view. Thanking you for your patronage in the past, and trusting that you will continue as a patron of this paper. Yours truly, PEPPER BROS., Publishers.

(ieorge Mash burn, a hard working and honest old negro, who resides about two miles from Old Fort, besides raising a large family and buying a farm, has been trying for the past 35 years to lay by a little ready cash for a "rainy day." He had finally accumulated between two and three thousand dollars, but instead of putting his hard-earned savings in a bank he had secreted them in some sort of a "contraption" fastened against the wall under his bed.
