The amazing story of Carl Rowe who rose from an income of
$50.00.aweek to $1,000 a month
My name is Rowe 'Carl Rowe. I live
in a small city in New York State.
I am going to tell you an amazing
story about myself. It may seem too
strange to believe, but you can easily
verify everything I have to say.
Two years ago I was a baker. I was
struggling along, trying to make the
money in my pay envelope meet the in
creasing expenses of our family. There
was -no prospect for the future.
Today, just two years later, I ami a
successful business man. I have plenty
of money for all the things we need and
want. Last month I made $876 during
my spare time, and was able to put
. $200 a week in my savings account.
I am going to tell you how it hap
pened. Please remember that two years ago
I had no surplus cash. I was in the
same fix as nine out of ten other men.
Expenses were constantly mounting and
my salary, although it had increased,
could not keep pace with the cost of
living. My wife had to do without things
that I knew she ought to have. We
wanted an automobile, but we couldn't
afford it. We wanted to buy our own
home, but we couldn't afford that.
It made me desperate to think of
what might happen if I became sick or
lost my job. I worried about it, and so
did my wife. We were living from hand
.to mouth, and we didn't know what
calamity and hardships might be lurk
ing just around the corner.
vAnd .yet today X own our nine
room house. I have an automobile. I
have money for books, the theatre, or
any other pleasures that I may want. I
have the cash today to educate my son
and send him through college.
Here is how it happened. One day
in glancing through a magazine I read
an advertisement. The advertisement
said that any man could make rrom a
hundred to three hundred dollars a
month during his spare time.
m
I didn't believe it. I knew that I had
worked hard eight hours a day for
$50.00 a week, and I figured that no
man could make that much during a
couple of hours a day spare time.
But as I read that ad I found that it
pointed to men who had made that. much
and more. In the last paragraph the
advertiser offered to send a book with
out cost. I still doubted. But I thought
it was worth a two-cent stamp, so T tore

ingly simple. I am the representative
in this territory for a raincoat manu
facturer. The booklet that I read was
one issued by that company. It tells any
man or woman just what it told me. It
offers to anyone the same opportunity
that was offered to me. It will give to
anyone the same success that it has
brought to me.
The Comer Manufacturing Company
are one of the largest manufacturers of
high-grade raincoats on the market;
but they do not sell through stores. They
sell their coats through local representa
tives. The local representative does
not have to buy a stock. ' All he does is
to take orders for Comer raincoats and
he gets his profit the same day the or
der is taken. Fully half my customers
come to my house" to give me their or
ders. My business is growing bigger every
month. I dont know how great it will
grow, but there are very few business
men in this city whpse net profit is
greater than mine, and I can see only
unlimited opportunity in the future.

out the coupon and put it in my pocket
and .next day on my way home from
work I mailed it.
When I look back to that day ani
realize how close I came to passing up
that ad, it sends cold chills down my
spine. If the book had cost me a thou
sand dollars- instead of a two-cent
stamp, it would still have been cheap.
All that I have today an automobile
my home, an established business, a con
tented family all these are due to the'
things I learned by reading that little
eight-page booklet.
There is no "secret to my success. I
have succeeded beyond any dream I may
have had three years ago, and I con
sider myself an average man. I be
lieve that I would be criminally selfish
if I did not tell other people how I made
my success.
All the work I have done has " been
pleasant and easy, and withal, amaz-
