SELLING BEDS IN HEAVEN
From the Globe Democrat

CTIo" tHe H1UcIa
A talented Irishman named DAILY
came here from Ireland lately, and
since has been doing a thriving busi-
ness selling to his unsophisticated coun-
trymen and women beds in heaven at
the extremely low price of 81 a piece.
To those who could not afford to pay
so much he sold "shake-downs" at 25
cents a piece. with the privilege of
exchanging them on arrival for more
luxurious quarters by paying in some
mysterious way the difference in price.
Incredible as it may seem, the smooth
tongued swindler found many victims,
each of whom now has a celestial ticket
in exchange for his hard learned cash.
So far the heavenly bed dealer has
escaped arrest.
