the advertising which was appearing
in the local dailies and took note Of
the throngS that swarmed in, after a
particularly good advertisement Of the
store had appeared. His alert mind,
as he looked about, kept specializing
how such methods might do in his own
little home town.

in the cold gray dawn one morning
and in the very cold, very gray dawn

could hardly believe his eyes wnen he
saw that the horse had brought along

nothing but shabby old bride on
