NOT WASHBURN-CROSBY.
Makers Of GOLD MEDAL FLOUR Not Con-
eerned in Minnea polls Receivership.

1t should be understood that the
Washburn- Crosby Co., makers of GOLD
MEDAL FLOUR, are in no way con-
cerned with the recent Minneapolis -four
ing mill receivership. The slight simi-
larity in names has led TO some con-
fusion.
One need have no fear that the GOLD
MEDAL housewives, whose pictures
have adorned the magazines and news
papers, will cease to appear. We shall
see them the same as ever. And the
Washburn- Crosby Co. continue to be the
largest milling concern in the world.
Therefore. while the receivership in
question is most unfortunate, it does not
by any means concern all Minneapolis
-four mills. The Washburn- Crosby Co.,
makers of the widely advertised GOLD
MEDAL FLOUR, shipped 5000 cars
last year more than their nearest COM
petitor And they are fourishing still

CROP OF PROMOTERS VICTIMS
''The Clergy md Maiden ladies' said
to BE Glass Easiest
to Reach.

The Worlds Work constantly receives
letters telling how some poor man or
woman has been Induced to buy doubtful
stocks. and faces the loss Of the entire
Investment. Many of these letters come
from country doctors and clelg men, and
tell OF cases that have come under their
personal observation.
Very often the stories are pitiful enough.
They ali ind with the question: What an
be done about it?" In ninety-nine cases
out of a hundred nothing can be done. In
the hundredth case there has been fraud
on the part Of some responsible agent, and
a suit at law may recover the loss. But
this chance is slight, for practically this
form of piracy is safe, and nothing can
be done to stop Il,
The two favored classes OF people In
the lists Of possible investors are the Gle gy
and maiden ladies. There is hardly a

l had never been able to figure out Just
what profit there could be in the appeal
by circular to the clergy, a class that
usually has education, some knowledge of
human nature. and very little money. But,
since the Readers Service Of this magazine
was established, l have come to under
stand, in some part, the reason why they
are selected. Not only are the clergy
themselves extremely likely TO buy in
small quantities, but the pitiful fact ap-
pears that, through the honest but mis-
guided enthusiasm of preachers, the pro-
motors reach hundreds of investors whom
they could not otherwise reach. In small
country towns and rural communities the
clergyman is frequently temporal as we'll
as a spiritual guide, particularly to widows,
orphans, and the helpless Of both sexes.
And It Is to such as these that the pro-
mOter looks for profits. II a man comes
into the office Of a lawyer, a banker, a
merchant, or wen an editor, and tries t.
