THE DAILY ASTORIAN'S PREMIUM OFFER The publishers of the Daily Astorian, in line with modern journalistic methods for increasing the piper's circulation, have decided to offer special inducement to prospective subscribers for the paper, and to that end have received limited consignments of three separate volumes which are to be disposed of to subscribers at the rate of $i:00 PER VOLUME "Cutler's Red B00R of Priceless Receipts" "Webster's Common Sense Dictionary" "The Life of Pope Leo XIII" As it would hardly be fair to old subscribers to offer any or all of these valuable works to new subscribers, since there is no increase in the price of the paper, The Astorian, in a spirit of fairness, hereby extends the same privilege to its old subscribers and invites them to stop into the oflloe and secure for $1.00 one of these 3.00 books. Bear in mind that we mean exactly what we say in referring to the very limited number of books in the consignments. So Come Early and Avoid the Rush and Don't Get Left.
