There are large number OF persons iu
New Castle who were of che opinion theJ
were going to get their spring suits for q
cents each. They can still keep OH think.

| Philadelphia, circulated coupons here and
by similar mode of procedure as stated
| above several suits Of clothes we're obtain
81 But about tho time the, coupons were
sSefnng ffoefy the concern closed Its doors.
Tha New Castle people threw their for
tunes with Philadelphinn who operated
the Wilmington Coupon Company at No.
I'll Market street. Instead of 20 cents the
suit of clothes cost $22 CO. Tho mode Of
working is described by the following con-
tract:
The holder of one of the tickets Of the
Wilmington Coupon Company, agrees to
deliver o coupon apiece to ten different
people who will each purchase from us
one ticket at twenty cents and deliver a
cou ]0n apiece to ten other people who
will do likewise. 10 every .icket holder
doing this, we will deliver Ladies' or
Gents Clothing to the value of 5000. To
ticket holder who may be unable to dis
pose of all the coupons, we will deliver
clothing in proportion to the number of
coupons disposed of and to every one who
falls to dispose Of any coupons we will re-
uA''s sAS o"SAsy SVhso VhASA AAoS puAu lOl

ers on their ten coupons. We will deliver
the ten tickets and sets OF coupons on re-
ceipt OF the two dollars thus collected, or
we will distribute the tickets according to
instructions. :. This suggests the quickest
way and II followed there need be no waits
or delays. by adopting this method every
