contest will go on just the same, that is if you send in enough subscriptions to win one of the valuable prizes outlined below, we gH
will be only too glad to give you an order for the prize at once. gg

order to win. So you see you are not taking any chances whatsoever. If you have not entered the contest be sure and do so gg
right away, for it is FREE and this is the one best thing now on the boards; and if you let this slip by you will be the looser, yg
for you have all to gain and nothing to lose. There is no limit to the time that you may use to win one of the prizes, so ♦♦♦♦
