A GOOD JOKE ON
SEVERAL READERS

The publication in The Journal last
Sunday of the facsimile page of Pen,
sacola's first daily published Feb. Is
1878, nearly q years ago, was read
with great deal of interest, not only
by the older residents who were here
at that time, but the younger genera
ton as well.
The advertisements in the oaper
were read with as much interest as its
news matter. and in this connection
some very amusing things happenea.
One of the advertisements read like
this:
Fresh country eggs at McDavid e
Streut's at poe per dozen"
Now considering the present price
Of eggs this was a very startling an
nnUncement end one that was worth
taking ADVANTAGE of. even If it did
r. fer to the arg market q wears ago.
One ladv when she read the ad on,
80 excited over it that she rushed
across the street tn neighbar's house
and pronosed that the twn- families
go together and buy whole case pof
eggs. Another telenhoned The Jour
Tal and wanted 10 know If McDavid
& Strout was a Pensacola firm. ard
etili another wanted to know IL the
firm did business on Intendencia
street
These things are laughable and
constitute a good joke on each OF he
persons who cot fooled on the o.
year-old adj but they also contain y
moral as well. If people will read
srd give attention. to advertisements

the same thing in reference to adver-
tisements that are in date

whether trained correspondent Of

more OF the interesting things in
