WHEATON, ILL.,, Jan. 23.-Four
years ago waitress In Chicago res
taurant got tired of bringing ham

ers" To that one. She had saved $3.50:
also she had studied the chicken.rais-
ing business, both sides OF II. She had
noticed that fastidious diners were
willing TO pay we'll for nice, tender
broilers.
So Miss Anna Sharpley hung UP her
waitress apron, took her savings over
to a real estate agent and paid 5000
down on an acre OF land. She invest
ed most OF what was left in a good
sized chicken house. Then she moved
on her farm" out on the prairie, Is
miles west OF Chicago, with not anoth-
er dwelling in sight. Eighteen chick
ems kept her company at first: these
she made at home in large dry-goods
box, while she herself occupied the
chicken-house.
The Is chickens multiplied, and
their chicks waxed fat and tender, and
became like unto high-priced broilers.
That is Miss Sharpley's speciality
broilers. She aimed for the highest
and best trade. and one day she set
out with a basketful of broilers nicely
cleaned and ready for delivery. She
visited the homes OF some of the
wealthiest citizens of the fashionable
north side OF Chicago and at each she
left broiler.
Attached TO the broiler was this mes
