Thousands tell us they bought
their Oliver typewriters without
noticing the outlay.
Here's the way the plan works:
You make a small first payment
and get the machine at once.
Then save II cents day and pay
monthly, exactly the same as relt.
When you complete the pay
ments, the typewriter Is yours for
ever. And you pay only the regular
list price.

Metropolitan Success.

During the New York rum Of The
Pink Lady" which appears at the
Calumet theater October II. close tab
was kept upon the various records
made 10y this most successful produc-
ton and some interesting figures were
the result. one could quote figures
tor q week ana not exhaust the de
tails of records that were smashed. 1t
ran for nearly year without an in
terruption. In that time j6I.923 peo-
pie saw the performances. As the
highest seats We're SO and the cheap
est 30 cents, it averaged slightly over
$3.50 per person in the matter of ad-
mission, So il will be seen that the
gross receipts were close 10 three
quarters OF million dollars i'm New
York city alone. From February to
December not a performance was
missed and many special ones had to
be put i'm to accommodate the demand.
This is the longest run ever known
for a musical comedy in New Horit
and when il is considered that sis
weeks of that time were part of the
hottest weather New York had known
i'm 30 years. the record is ali the more
astonishing.
In London, England. at the Globe
theater. it achieved even greater sue
cess, if that is possible. inasmuch as
