They guarantee it will pay well.

Lemonade Yes!
If you wish to make lemonade
in these days of hard times, when
to buy a dozen of the sour things
will cost you more than you can
spare, what are you going to do?
Lemonade you want, and if you
can’t buy the ordinary little sour
balls at the high price the fruit
dealers are asking for them, just
call around and look in the
window of our office and see our
fine lemon tree- Its in full bloom
and some of the fruit, there are
seven on the tree, weigh as much
as one pound and a fraction and
will make enough ade for a party
of about twenty five. Yes, you
can buy the tree for its for sale.
And,further, if oysters advance in
price, call us and get an oyster
plant from us, but we won’t guar
antee that you can serve them in
your stews..

Strange Story of Crime
There is no stranger story in
American crime annals than the ca
reers of three extarordinary swind
lers just laid by the heels after
twenty years of comparative im
munity. They are the operators of
the wireless wi re-tapping device by
which hundreds of thousands of
dollars have been tricked from vic
tims the world over, and withal so
adroitly as to prevent their dupes
complaining to the police.
