IT'S tORTH $500, AND THE
VALUE IS CONSTANTLY IN

DOLLAR SPENT IN SPOKANE
Is WORTH MORE THAN 100
CENTS.

Just think of a silver dollar being
really worth as much as S. gold

II you get possession of the valu-
able coin take it to The store of the
Three Little Tailors, 5 Washington

promptly as they would S. piece.
The Wonder department store will
also pay you premium for the dol

like to encourage trading at home
and will give a big s1.25 worth Of
goods to get it.

the elusive coin 1t was again out ON
Division street. A barber had the
dollar, but BARRIERS never keep their
money long and where 1t Is now IL
problematical.
Every time the dollar changes
hands 1t serves to illustrate the yah
ue of trading at home. The list Oh
names Is growing and ere the good
old coin is through It's wanderings
half the people Of the city will have
had it in their possession, but no
one will keep it long. It's too valu.
able when you can get a premium
for 1t.
Remember the offer Of The Press
An extra dollar will be given to the
Tooth person signing his or her
name to the tags, and, better still,
ii you are a subscriber Of The
Press and want to pay your bill,
The Press will accept it as $3.50.
When you get the dollar, just
telephone to Main 375. We want to
tell many subscribers where to look
for 1t and then it's interesting to
know how many people trade at
home.
