Xo matter if it does cost you S2.50 a year; be kind to your neighbor and lend him your paper to read if he does not take it, and don't humiliate him by compelling him to ask for it, but lay it out Avhere he can find it when he comes in next morning after publication publi-cation day. Don't be so uncharitable as to hide" it because be is as Avell able to pay for it as you are. Undoubtedly he has private reasons for not taking it. Perhaps he has conscientious scruples against paying S2.50 for a paper lie can get the. reading of for nothing. Perhaps lie is mad at the editor for saying too little or too much about him, or the m.-an thing may have shown his ingratitude for long j unpaid subscription; in wnieh case tho paper "don't amount to anything" and he won't have the dirty thing in the house." Put he wants to read it all f the more "on that account, just to "'see what the fool has to say.'" He has a v right to think it good enough to take) j and criticise although not good enough I to take and pav for. So humor tho f fellow and give him your paper to read. You may get your "back" up at the editor some time aud want the compliment com-pliment returned. |
