Easing himself out Of bed. his glance
took in a magazine reposing on the
table. Idly turning its pages he came
upon an advertisement setting forth
the merits Of fine old whiskey."
without moro ado, he seized his
trusty pencil and dashed off the fol.
lowing letter ION pink paper) to Milton
Kronheim, who In the old days kept
q liquor shop at 321s NJ street north

which reads:

know whether you got Il or not. ]
