NOTICE.
After October 1 all classified
advertising must be paid for in
advance. Tho cost of this adver-
tislng is only flvo cents a lino,
counting five words to tho line.
This rate makes it impossible
for Tho Herald to handle it on '
other than a cash basis, as the
cost ot bookkeeping is greater-
than the value ot tho advertise-
ment. Anyone can compute the
cost by counting five words to
tho line and remitting five
cents for each line for each in-
sertton. Tho necessity for pay-
ment inndvance precludes the
possibility ot taking this adver-
tislng qvor the phono, and The
Herald will appreciate It it re-
quests' to do so will not bo
made.
