You Would Not Accept Counterfeit
Money, Why Accept Counterfeit

Good money is made by the Govern
ment in which you have implicit faith
and confideEGS. Good goods are made
by manufacturers who are willing to
stake their regulations on the quality
of the material offered to you through
the medium of their advertisements in
this paper. Counterfeit goods are not
advertised. The reason for it is they
will not bear the close scrutiny to
which genuine advertised goods are
subjected. Counterfeit money pays
more profit to the counterfeiter Coun-
terfeit goods are offered to you for the
same reason.
Insist on the Genuine-Reject the
Counterfeit
