SOMETHING DIFFERENT FROM THE

the week. Their plan is this: Say, for
| instance, you trade $5.00 cash with
them, they give you a duplicate cash
slip. the original of which is put into a
box every night, and some disinterested
party will draw out one of these slips,
{ and the holder of duplicate will be en
titled to the full amount of ticket.
‘This slip will be posted in their win
dows every morning, 8o you gde it will
be wise for you to watch their windows
to gee if you hold a lucky slip.
We have never heard of anything
fairer than this. You don’t have to
wait a month, but every day a eash sale
is given away to party holding lucky
ticket, whether it be 5¢ or $50.00.
For the benefit of those living out of
town, besides posting ticket in window,
the entire list of lucky" tickets will be
published in. Tne Marierra JoumNAL
