People of St. Johns, wo would
recommend that you read care
fully every business announce
ment in this paper, and then
decide to do all your trading
with them so far as they arc able
to supply your wants. They aro
deserving of it.

A strange kind of rain made
its anncarnnce in Portland las
Saturdny morning. It resembled
a mixture of dust and water.
Many exnlanations have been
offered, from lava dust to plain
mud. whatever it was it cer

is certain it was not gold dust
Tho Review is being distri
butcd this week to the homes of
St. Johns free of charge, and
will uo so distributed for some
time to come. Tho idea is to
gain a better ncquaintnnco with
all the people of St. Johns, both
on tho part of tho Rovicw and
tho business men whoso an
nounccmonts appear in this is
sue.
Advertising in tie Review is
based on weekly rates, and not
monthly. It costs a certain a
mount each week to get out the
Rovicw, and If there aro fivo
publications in a month, adver
tisers aro charged with fivo
weeks' service instead of ono
month. Otherwise it would
provo a serious burden to get
out five papers in one month,
nnd rcccivo pay for only four.
