THE MAIL SWlNDLERS.
Bogus Bargains For pumpkins Who
Bite at Big Bait and Get Bitten.

a great Zeal of money Is coaXed out
of country communities by the mail
swindlcrs." These gentry not only use
the mails in sending out circulars Of
fering fake bargains for the unwary,
but they frequently get their alluring
advertisements into the cheap little
mail order journals which circulate to
some extent in nearly every commune
ty. People should be on guard against
all advertisements which offer an I'M
reasonable value for Il little money
The safest way is to spend the money
at home, where you have Il chance to
look ut the goods before buying. The
postotiicc department issues fraud or
ders against any individual or concern
which is discovered in the practice or
using the mails to swndle, but fire.
quently these swindlers rake in much
money before the mails are closed to
them.
The average Swindler who uses the
mails is Il willy fellow. He has learn
ell the art of wording his offers so
they attract the remote and indiffer-
emily educated. and so plausible do his
statements sound that he finds easy
and ready victims. One is frankly
amazed at the credulity of the human
race. A typewriter company of New
York induced persons to send $50 as
Il guarantee of good faith In copying
at home" scheme in which the purchas-
er was to have Il typewriter and 500
sheets of paper and copy letters at
$3.50 thousand. The typewriter
proved to be IL toy affair that was use
less for the work. The purchaser was
out about 50 and the firm in that much.
one clever New York firm bought up
a lot of letters from an agency to get
addresses. then wrote each person that
he or she had won prize which would
be sent on receipt of S1.31 to cover
cost of boxing and packing charges.
Each delighted person invariably sent
the amount and received Il piece of
cheap jewcry worth n few cents. A
bluing company offered Il new auto
matte tension sewing machine" to per-
sons selling thirty packages Of wash
blue ut 10 cents apiece. The machine
proved to be Il toy affair, and the let
| ter in answer to wOman's threat to
sue Is filed away as mark Of genuine
cleverness on the part of the artful
dOdger who originated the scheme.
Bogus detective agencies were thick
in the land for awhile. For certain
sum of money they would send star,
certificate of membership, credentials,
ETC. to the purchaser, and not until the
astonished victim had been hauled up
before unfecling magistrates for car
rying gun or for impersonating an Of
ficer did the luckless fellow realize
that he had been the victim of scoun-
drel.

If Alabama wins from Ten nesse it's standing will be better than that of Tech Georgia or Clemson, and equally as good as Auburn. If Alabama wins a conscientious judge will place Ala bama and Auburn on level for third place in the association standing.

NOW-AND THEN.

Not long ago, says an Iowa paper, a.
farmer in Iowa went to a harness deal
er to buy a team harness. He found
one that suited, the price being $45.00
The farmer happened to remember that
about q dozen years ago he had bought
a harness just like it from the same
dealer for $500 and mentioned the fact.
The dealer went to his books and found
it to be true. But" said the dealer.
my books show that you did not pay
cash for it, because you didn't have the
money. You hauled in 300 bushels of corn
and gave it to me for the $35 harness.
Now I tell you what will do. If you're
willing to bring me 300 bushels of corn
I will give you the $500 harness, also
a double buggy harness, worth $500,
a single buggy harness worth $11.OO. a
plush robe worth $500, one pair of wool
blankets worth $500, a boys riding sad
die worth $500, one riding whip and rid
ing bride worth $3.50, two leather hal
tiers worth $50, brush and curry comb
worth $1.0O, and a rawhide whip worth
$1.00."
Which, OF course, illustrates that the
prices OF some things are much better
than they were a few years ago. espec-
tally the price OF farm products.
As a matter of fact, farm products
