ENDLESS CHAIN IN BUSI, S
Secret OF Getting Rich Quickly by Selling
Three-Dollar Shoes at Ten Cents.

The endless chain idea has been adapted to
business with surprising results. II people
will only take to it. they can buy a three-dollar
pair OF shoes for 10 cents. a twenty-dollar over
coat for a quarter. and other things at equally
low prices. while the dealers will shortly be
able to retire with huge fortunes.
The thing works this way: Suppose you
want to get n pair OF So shoes for 10 cents. You
ask yourself II you have six friends or ac-
Quaintances who also wish to secure n pair Of
shoes for 10 cents. You go to the office Of the
concern and pay 70 cents for a certificate with
six coupons attached. These coupons you sell.
one to each OF six friends for 10 cents. thus
getting hack 90 cents In cash of your invest
ment and leaving you only 10 cents out. Your
friends have the same privilege you had OF TAX
ing out certificates and selling their coupons
Each certificate is numbered and each coupon
bears the number OF the certificate Of which 1t
Is n part, as well as n number Of its own. On
the back OF the certificate are six ruled and
numbered lines upon which the owner of the
certificate writeS the name Of the friends TO
whom he Inns sold the coupons. Hi. certificate
must be full and paid up before he can draw
the premium; that Is In say. each Of his friends
TO whom he has sold, n coupon must have come
TO tho Office and taken out a certificate at 30
cents for his own account, before the order for
the 81 pair Of shoes will be given. when this
