Omaha daily bee., 1889-04-14
CHOICE FREE WANTS.

There is great rivalry between Two Omaha
dailles as TO which can do the most free
advertising. One of them carries whole
page of free gift wants which the other un-
loaded recently in order to induce chumps
(who drop five nickels into it's want slot dur
ing the next month) to take their chances
upon getting prize puzzle premium of S25
This presupposes a want of brains in Omaha
which nobody hereabouts has suspected.
The BEE has never given away any of Its
advertising in the wants column because it
does not believe people place any value on
things that are gwen away, but mainly be
cause its columns are always patronizcd by
people who want to reach everybody in
Omaha, Council Bluffs and all other towns
within radius of 200 TO 500 miles. But in
order not to be behind any Omaha daily in
the matter of enterprise and public spirit, we
make an exception to our rule and devote
limited space to few choice want ads that
we deem deserving of benevolent treatment,
and for which no charge has been made:
