leaving a town he card-Indexed very

I saw you we were still laughing over
that fellow who slipped on the lee with
a pall of milk In his hands. I have

We have more "time'' than we really
need, so propose to divide it with our readers.
We still have on hand nineteen clocks like the
illustration above. These little time keepers
stand about 9 1-2 inches high, are handsomely
finished in oxidized copper, are fitted with
alarms, and are excellent timekeepers in
every respect. If you want one renew your
subscription for a year in advance and send
us one new subscriber. Or, if preferable, re
new your own subscription and pay 50 cents
for the clock. This clock would sell regularly
for $1.50 or $1.75. Order early as only a few
remain.
