three or four times every night. Twas

A Car LOnd of Dimes.

One would naturally think that the pack
age dye business was small industry, but
there is more than one million dollars worth
of package dyes sold in the United States
every year.
One of the largest package dye factories
in the world is that of the Putnam Fadeless
Dyes Co., Unionville, Mo. In this factory
alone, three million packages of Putnam
Fade1ess Dyes are made every year. To
put up this amount of dyes requires the
handling of seven million of envelopes, think
of it, seven millions of envelopes laid length
wise would reach distance of seven hun
dred miles; if laid one upon the other they
would make pile of Putnam Fadeless Dyes
d miles high. As each envelope has to be
handled five times before package is com.
plete, the completion of three millions of
packages requires that they be handled
thirty-fve million times. This of course
gives employment to a number of people,
the Putnam Fadeless Dye Company alone
employ. almost a hundred people, 90 per
cent. of whom are young ladies'.
As each package retails for lOc the weight
of the retail price of the three millions pack
ages in dimes is $4,000 pounds, or almost
a car load.

been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the

Cure is taken internally, acting di-

stroying the foundation of the disease

building up the constitution and as
