HOW TO MAKE MONEY. } I understand now why I could ) lot make money with the plater that I had. There are so many 1 ; sings llboUt the plating business that I did not understand. It was not lintil I saw the advertisement of Gray & Co. Plating Works , Co- lunbus. Ohio , that 1 commenced to make money. The Royal Pla- ter is sent by this house and all the trade secrets connected with the platiN ; business , suchas are necessary in the great gold and silver plating factories are given free. As soon as I got the Royal plater I made money right along. Last week I cleared $72.50 , and everybody is delighted with my work. Anyone who has lead trouble - ble with their plating machine , as as I have , should send to the above fire ) and obtain their circulars , and they will be able to make lots of money as I have done. The Royal Plater is fitted out complete ready for business ; you do not have to spend a cent for materials. During these hard times this information - formation is valuable.
