s. Electric Oil"
A Handsome Profit On . Bucket of Red
Lemonade.

Lemonade.
A street "fakir" or vender of nostrums
succumbed to the recent wintry weather,
and begged a bed night or two ago at
Washington station house. A reporter for
the Star interviewed him as he was warm
ing his feet at the stove before retiring to
his couch, and got the following story
from him, which may have more than
local moral. He said:
Il can tell you rather funny story
about my experience here in the fall of
1879. I think it was the most amusing
ever had. was out to the Rockville fair
helping a fellow who ran hit me hard
machine, two strikes for five cents and a
cigar every time the jumper went up to
100. Business was pretty good. my
'divvy' being s11 for the two days was
there. AS the fair was closing l noticed
that fellow who had kept lemonade
stand had nearly bucket full of the red
looking fluid on hand. asked him what
he intended to do with it, and he said he
should throw it away. Give 1t to
me- l asked, and he consented.
We'll l brought the stuff here and
purchasing \ gross OF small walls at
Stott's drug store, bottled it. You can
believe me or not. but assure you l sold
IL Al twenty-five celltS a UoItlc. SloOu
at the space corner of Eighth street and
PENNSYLVANIA avenue, and the stuff had
run. | announced that was the king of
all pain the name that have used when
ever selling medicine, and called the
red lemonade the Electric Oil l WASH t
much surprised at selling the stuff, Cor l
have good lecture on pain and how to
prevent it, a thing that sounds pretty we'll
and always goes with a street
crowd, but was taken aback a little
when the man came back the next day
and bought another bottle. He said it had
cured bad attack of neuralgia which had
given his wife great deal of trouble. As
Itook in his money could .hardly keep
from laughing. 4 single thought saved
me and it has been a satisfaction to me
many times. 1t is this I'VE are born to
do benefits l did that man a benefit.
and under the circumstances there was no
wron. in taking his money. The Electric
OH had one advantage over large pOr-
tiOn of the nOstrums that are sold in the
street. and that is the homeopathic prepa'
ratiOns, i: wouldn't do any harm even if it
did no good. That bucket Of red lemon
ade brought in to me in all $72. 1t brougt
