Then one day last October while he
was sweeping the camp yard he
found a nickle. He got one of the
prison officials to buy him a 5-cent

packages of matches contained ten

money. He bought more matches, and
kept adding to the original nickle

he bought sacks of smoking tobacco,

Advertising Mistakes
to bring about a real gap in the con
tinuity of the advertising. It is a com
mon mistake for some advertisers to
think that they can turn advertising
on and off, like water from a faucet,
and expect It to become immediately
effective whenever they are prepared
to resume operations. Advertising
does not work that way. Temporary
conditions should not influence us to
make too seriou3 inroads on the pro
gram of advertising, which cau be
whole thing when Mary Magdalene

thought to be the gardener. Jesus
reveals to her his identity, and bids
her tell the disciples that she has

was given the privilege of being the
first mortal to see Jesus after he had
conquered death anil the grave. Ten
times in forty days Jesus apneared to
his dir-ciples and each time he had a
