Book sales drive demand for cheap volumes at local office
An extraordinary demand for inexpensive volumes flooded the office as readers rushed to exchange coupons for books. The first installment of a literature series arrived, with orders filled and coupons processed, while other titles like The House of Seven Gables and Reveries Bachelor were in ample supply. Subscriptions via the paper’s system offer eight-cent books with three coupons, and out of town subscribers will receive by mail within ten days. Local agents advertise Wheeling lots and pest control services, urging early participation and indicating price and delivery details.
