The New Hook Spoon Free to All.

I read in the Christian Standard that
Miss A. NJ. Fritz, Station A., st. Louis,
Mo. would give an elegant hook spoon to
anyone sending her ten 2-cent stamps. |
I sent for one and found it so useful that
7 showed it to my friends, and made $500
in two hours, taking orders for the spoon.
The hook spoon is household necessity.
It cannot slip into the dish or cooking
vessel, being held in the place by NOOK u.
ON the back. The spoon is something
that housekeepers have needed ever since
snoons were first invented. Anyone can
get sample spoon by sending ten 2-cent
Stamps to Miss Fritz. This is splendid
way to make money around home.
Very truly, JEANNETTE s.

jumping high in the air and descending
upon the serpent with the fore hoofs
