THE NOHFOLK WEEKLY NEWS-JOURNAL FRIDAY MARCH 11 1910.
You have closed the pages of yesterday , live for today , and today build the foundation of tomorrow.
I Can Show You How to Make Big Money
How to Build Your Foundation
WANT to show you how you nn make your brains
work and earn for you money. Through my scii'iitilio
I instruction hundreds of young men farm hands and
clerks have been enabled to reap immense profits from
their labors. You can do as well. Your chance is as good
as theirs was. This is the age of real estate investments.
No matter where you are located I will teach you how and
make you my special representative. Write today for my free
book , "The Heal Estate Husiness and its Opportunities , " telling
how to start a successful real estate business. This book contains
letters from many who have started without money or experience
and have made a success without help. Ask for the book NOW
TODAY. We incorporate all the best modern methods.
Included in this package will be a pamphlet telling what
my settlers have accomplished by scientific and intensive farm
ing on their JO , 20 , 40 and ] ( ! 0 acre farm homes on Copita Prairie.
When you get this information which contains the facts as to
THE OPPORTUNITY I AM OFFERING YOU-to make money
with me , I will take my chances as to whether you will say
"Ilurd is Wrong , " or "Ilurd is Right , " as it won't interfere with
our feelings or friendship , neither will you be under one cent of
obligation to me if you never enroll for my instructions or if you
never write to me again.
My six weeks course of lessons and lectures will teach j on
every branch of the business including salesmanship. 1 want you
to know about our splendid plan and our co-operation that co
operates. If you are ambitious and want to engage in the best
profitable business on earth , fill out the coupon and send for my
free book As a farmer boy 1 started without capital. I have
started hundreds of others the same way who are now successful.
SOUNDS INTERESTING , DOESN'T IT ? Don't you often get tired and disgusted , working as hard as you do with such little chance of advancement , and what do you get for it ? JUST A LIVING Now , isn't this true ?
I say I CAN SHOW you how to branch out , start a business of your own , with practically no capital , and make a big success. Just get the red blood in your veins to moving and go after it tooth and nail It is your opportunity
just what you have been looking for. TODAY it is yours yes YOURS. You know as well as I do that this is the age of real estate. People are realizing more and more forcibly every minute that real estate will never be any cheaper ,
it is going higher and higher and making men rich You know these to he facts , you see the shrewd men of your locality buying real estate. You can't show me a man who has no ambition and is satisfied with his present condition
who ever achieved success. If I had been satisfied working in a factory in Monmouth , Illinois , I would be there now. < The discontent with what you are doing now , and the ambition , grit and determination to accomplish more is what
brings success , and the time to start and build your foundation to success is RIGHT NOW.

able costume that was ever deslgnei
for use on or off the stage Is the "hoi
pheasant" costume that is worn b ;
Mine. Slmono , who plays one of th' '
Important roles in Rostand's grea
barnyard drama , "Chantecler. "
The plumage of 12,000 pheasant
was used In the creation of Mme. S !
mone's costume , and this plumage cos
57,500.
This wonderful dress consists of
whalebone frame , covered with cai
vas , which In turn is covered with th
plumage of the multitude of bird
that had to bo slaughtered for th
nurposo.
To get the true effects of the marl
ings of a pheasant It was necessar
to have more than twenty shades c
color. It was a task of months t
got the proper shadings , so as to su
the exacting taste of M. Rcstum
Thousands of feathers were dlscari
cd as not mat ° hlng or not setting pr <
perly In the artificial plumage.
The final effect was an exquisite r
production of the pheasant's plumag
and this costume in Itself contribute
a large share to the success of tl

I the evening train and convened cour

a new trial , but this motion was denlei
