A patent medicine man out West
has proposed TO advertise with us,
offering as pay therefor a gross of
his Patent Purgative Pills. We
will therefore be prepared to go
into the prize business, and as
chromos are playing out, will offer a
box of Patent Purgative Pills to
every new subscriber, between now
and the first of June.
On second thought, we will give
the pills to those who don't pay.
They arc warranted to kill every
pop.
