St. .Louis, Mo., would give an elegant plated hook spoon to any one send ing her ten 2 cent stamps I sent, for one and found it so useful that 1 showed it to my friends, and made £l3 in two hours, taking orders for the spoon. The hook spoon is a household necessity. It cannot slip into the dish or cooking vessel, being he’d in place by a hook on the back. The spoon is something housekeepers have needed ever since spoons lirst invented. Any one can get a sample spoon by sending ten 2 cent stamps to Miss Fritz. This is a splendid way to make money around home. Very truly, Jeanette S. HOLLINUSWOKTU. Our Sunday School is Dooming now. litre cwmes old Sambo once more.
