Various
Children's literature, American -- Periodicals
Altogether, its pages furnish just such a variety as is best fitted to
the wants of children from infancy up to the age of twelve years. In
schools it is found to answer admirably as a first-Reader; and in remote
districts, where there are no schools, it takes the place of a teacher;
for thousands of children have been taught to read by "The Nursery"
alone.
A work which is at once so useful and so attractive, cannot fail to be
in demand in every family where there are young children. Its low price,
($1.60 a year, free of postage), places it within the reach of all
classes. We rely upon its merits alone to secure its circulation, and
send a sample copy by mail, for ten cents, to any person who wishes to
examine it. We do not _hire_ anybody to subscribe; but if any one
procures subscriptions for us, we are always ready to make a suitable
compensation.
With this view, we present the following list of Premiums. The articles
described are all of the best quality, and many of them such as are
wanted in every household. Besides offering them as premiums, we are
prepared to supply them for cash--sending them by mail or otherwise on
the most favorable terms. We therefore suggest to every person who
receives this pamphlet, that it would be well to preserve it carefully
for future reference.
EXPLANATIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS.
1. Previously to this date, (Sept. 1876), our offers of Premiums have
applied to _new_ subscriptions only. Hereafter, in awarding Premiums, we
shall make no distinction between new subscriptions and renewals.
2. Premiums are offered for _procuring_ subscriptions--not for
subscribing. But the applicant's own subscription or renewal, _when he
procures one or more other names to send with it_, will, of course, be
counted.
3. The full subscription price (one dollar and sixty cents) must be paid
for each name. No premium is given for subscriptions supplied at club
rates.
4. The money must always be sent, with the names, _direct to the
Publisher_. No premium is given for subscriptions sent through agents.
No name is entered on our books until the money is received.
5. Do not wait to make up your whole list before sending. Send the first
two names, _stating that they are to be placed to your credit for a
premium_, and add more as you get them.
6. Bear in mind that we do not give a premium or open an account for
less than _two_ subscriptions (one of which, however, may be your own);
but, _after the account is opened_, you may add one subscription at a
time if you choose--never omitting to state in your letter _that it is
to go to your credit for a premium_.
7. Write the name and address of each subscriber plainly, and =always
state whether a renewal or a new name=; and when you call for your
premium, be sure to give your own name and address so plainly that it
cannot be mistaken.
