Here i? man who does not take
his county paper, but oecassionlly
answers the advertisements in
“story papers,’, recently had some
very novel experiences. He learn¬
ed in one of those ads, that by
sending one dollar to a yankee he
could get a cure for drunkenness.
Sure enought he did It was to
“take the pledge and keep it.,’
Later on he sent 52 cts in stamps
to find out how to raise turnips
successfully. He found out:
“Just take hold of the tops and
pull.” Being young he wished to
marry, and sent 34 one cent stamps
to a Chicago firm for information
as to how to make an impression. it said:
When the answer came
i i Sit down on a pan of dough.”
The next advertisement read:
“How to double your money in
six months.” He was told to
convert his cash into bills and
fold the bills.” He sent a dollar
’to learn how to get rich;
like the devil and never spend a
cent.” He wrote to learn how 1 to
w'rite without pen or ink. He was
told to use a led peucil. He paid
$5 to learn how to live without
work. He wns told on a postal
card to “fish far suckers as we do.
