Tho Smooth Razor 6rafter.

An old graft game WIS very success
fully worked liz Dickinson ON Monday
evening. a pedd!er, minus both legs,
no had paid Tie CITY S. Tor a license,
worked The saiE: so s:nn.shly l:,ai SIC
tSlIo~s h bit are NOT saving a Wurd.
The peddler, full of wit and r%esourceful-
ness. began by giving away collar buttons
worth perhaps a penny each. He ex-
planned that he was sen out t advertise
a large company, that it cost hundreds
OF thousands of dollars to advertise a
new business and that the company had
instructed him to spend a large sum of
money in Dickinson and he wal going to
do it, for he knew it would be a good
investment. He passed some dimes and
quarters out to the people and with his
glib talk lead the people 10 think that
he was smart enough to sell them dirt.
blank strips of paper. etc. but, he
explained, he was not sent out for that
purpose. He was sent out to advertise
goods and was willing t o spend money
to do it. He commenced to pass around
razors which he claimed to be worth 81
to 50 each, but in order to advertise his
firm he was willing to let themgoatsIoo
each and proceeded to sell a large
number of worthless razors. Somehow
the peddler led many of the people to
think that he was going to throw the
money that he was taking back into the
crowd at the close Of the game. He had
numbered some of the razors and wound
a good sized bill around the handle
Finally he asked the purchasers if they
had bought the azors because they ex'
pected to get their money back or be-
cause they wanted them. OF course
every purchaser declared he wanted the
razor and the fakcr put the money in his
pocket and thanked the people tor wha'
they had done for him.
Some people have to be film famed
about so often and probably the ago
scheme is about as cheap and harmless:
a way as they could come into possession
Of the experience.
