has much wisdom in il. 4 speculator
who has become involved. and knows
not how TO extricato himself from fnan-
cial difficulties, unless he can produce a
large sum Of money, may as well add to
his other risks the promising oue Of a
ticket in one of Swan L Co.'S Saturday
lotteries. The prizes range from twenty
dollars to kfty thousand. and as there IS
a drawing every week, those who wish
to benefit themselves, have frequent op-
portunites Of doiog so--particularly as
there is more than one prize TO every ten
tickets. 1t Is always possible that a
purchaser may receive several thousand
dollars for his venture. Tickets are
sent By Swan & Co., Atlanta, Georgia,
to those who remit them the price,
which is ten dollars and half for quar-
ter of ticket. These Saturday lottcr-
ries Of Swan & Co., have the support Of
the public, because they are honorably
