New subscriptions to the SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN and the SCIENTIFIC
AMERICAN SUPPLEMENT will, for the present, be entered upon our books
to commence with the year, and the back numbers will be sent to each
new subscriber unless a request to the contrary accompanies the order.
Instead of a notice being printed on the wrapper, announcing that a
subscription is about to end, the time of expiration is now denoted in
the printed address each week, so that the subscriber may see when the
period for which he has prepaid is about to expire.
