Big Money in Simple Things.

ut is the patents upon simple ar
ticles in which the largest sums OF
money are made" said a well known
patent attorney in Washington the
other day. Gone reason is that 1t
does not cost much to get them out,
and another is that they do not at
tract attention until the inventor
has covered the field and thus pre-
vented some fellow from slipping IN
and stealing the fruits of his dis
coverv. Probably not more than
/ per cent Of the patents taken out
ever amount to ANYTHING i am
down here now upon a matter per-
tanning to an invention which
though very simple, has within 1t the
means of making vast fortune. 1t
is nothing more than patent cigar
ette paper. 1t is made from Il com
pound of paper and me'al SILVER VI
gold which prevents the ashes from
flying, and also prevents the nlco
tine from passing through the paper
and soiling either the fingers or lips
With it the smoker gets the effect O.
.he tobacco, but does not taste tn
paper. The inventor j. dentist
an inveterate cigarette smoker, wh'
started out TO discover paper wmcl
would not soil his fingers. The added
cost to a box of cigarettes will be bu
one or two cents. We have taken ou
patents in every country where to
tobacco is smoked This only illus
trates what fortune can sometime
be made from small things.

Spend # at SpsigIe's

Just a little dollar on its mission
sent, makes a lot OF people glad each
time coin is spent. You pay it TO
the butcher for meat to give you
strength, he takes it to the grocer
FROM whom it goes at length, some
pretty bit of cloth or lace, his better
half to buy, or helps to get her " inter
hat to make her rivals sigh. The dry
goods man sends on the coin to pay
his market bill, and Though the coin
is often spent it stays dollar still:
and every time it's spent at home
some act of good is done, in loom
ing" local industries ere the setting
of the sur.
But if you take that shining coin
and break the local chain, the
chances are that from afar twill not
return again. If once it passes out
of town the butcher and the baker
the grocer and the dry goods man
the cook, the undertaken, the car
penter, the carriage wright, the
-everyone-will lose ere
the settieg Of the sun.
Just keep the little coin at home
just keep it moving well, and every
time it changes hands, somebody
goods twill sell. That single littl'
dollar has thus a wonderOus power
to make somebody better dozel
times az hour. Just try a loaf o
Spiegle's bread, made of PLANsIFTEI
FLOUR, grown in the Beautiful lndial
Territory, and made in Ardmore.
