Meal Ticket for Fifty Cents.

B. w. Splitter is the name of man
who has 26 agents out teaching
Brooklyn people how to get 81 meal
ticket for so cents by the endless
chain plan. He does his business un-
der the name of the Cooperative Meal
system. He opened his Office recently
and is already doing thriving busi-
ness. The endless chain applied to
eating is entirely new. Splitter says
his system is q great thing for the
public, although he frankly admits
he has figured out how he can make
something like 100000 in three
months.
The methods of the cooperative
meal system are quite simple An
agent sells you coupon for so cents
To get your meal ticket you first take
your 50-cent coupon and $3.50 in
money to the Cooperative Meal Sys-
TENS Office. The meal system in re-
turn sends you a little book of three
coupons, each just like the coupon
you paid so cents for and then turned
into the office.
Still you haven't got your meal
ticket. You go ahead and try to ped
die out your three coupons. Every
man you see You tell how to get a
81 meal ticket for so cents. IfA8pu
can find three men willing to pay 80
cents each for coupon. you will get
back the $3.50 you sent to the meal
system, but you will stilf be out your
original so cents paid for the first
coupon.
And still you won't have your 81
meal ticket. The only thing to do
then is to sit down and wait patient
iy while the three men who have
bought coupons from you go out and
have the same experience you have
just passed through. If ali three of
them send in their coupons and each
sends $3.50 for book of three cou-
pons, then you get your meal ticket.
