We wish to call attention to the excellent plan which the Co-operative Society offers of doing errands for members. For the small sum of ten cents almost any little errand in Boston will be done by a messenger boy, who starts in town at about half-past one o'clock and returns before six. If for example a man wishes to send a message in town in the afternoon and to receive a reply in three or four hours, it is very convenient and a great economy in time to employ the messenger. Moreover, it is a great satisfaction to know that a commission will be executed promptly; for the Co-operative guarantees that there be no unnecessary delay. But to enumerate the advantages of the system is simply to state what all can see. We simply wish to emphasize the fact that errands can be done as we have stated, so that members of the society may profit thereby.
