able awards than has even been offer
ed in this vicinity in a similar under
taking, The Worcester Democrat
makes formal announcement of big
cash offer campaign in which hun
dreds of dollars in big awards and
cash commissions will be given away.
A two-page announcement in this is
que gives the details of this big enter
prise. The list consists of some of the
most alluring and attractive awards
imaginable.
The object of this cash offer cam
paign is to increase the already wide
and highly creditable circulation of
this newspaper to even greater pro-
portions. This paper is going to pay
it's friends handsomely for helping
to introduce the publication to other
friends, and neighbors.
The award list is headed with Valu-
able Cash Awards, and the plan
adopted by The Worcester Democrat is
a novel one. This paper could reach
thousands of new readers by employ
ing scores of solicitors to cover this
section, but it would take quite long
time to do the work thoroughly. In
inaugurating the cash offer campaign,
The Worcester Democrat adopts bet
ter plaza quicker method. This plan
also gives it's friends and readers an
opportunity to earn big rewards dur
ing their spare time. The cash offer
campaign will make lot more noise
and create interest and fun and there
is nothing like having some fun along
with business.
Big Pay For All
An especially attractive feature of
the "Cash Offer Campaign" is that all
will be paid we'll for the results they
obtain. A cash commission of 20 per
cent will be paid to all who remain
active and do not win one of the regu-
lar awards. Thus the cash offer cam
paign is a sure thing from the begin
ming. Their reward depends entirely
on the effort put forth and the results
obtained.
Spare Time
All one is expected to do in order
to earn one of the splendid awards is
to devote his or her spare moments to
obtain subscriptions to the Worcester
Democrat. In fact, sufficient time
is allotted to the campaign to allow
one to see every friend and acquaint-
ance during spare time. The campaign
will last six weeks, beginning with
the first published list of candidates.

Business Proposition
In offering such valuable awards
to those who take an active interest
The Worcester Democrat is not play

scheme. 1t is a business proposition
pure and simple. The hundreds of dol
lars worth of awards and cash COM
missions will be given in exchange for
well directed effort on the part of the
contestants. The awards themselves
assure each and every one that their
efforts will bear fruit to the fullest
extent.

"Chirps'' ~
from the

Well, Sir, the mail promptly for
warded and delivered the following
neat little epistle last week, and l
recommend it to my readers as an
example of terse expression and posi-
tive assertion:
June "a, 1886
The Ledger Enterprise
Pocomoke City, Md.
Dear Sir:
Inclose you will find this
paper / don't take no Demo-
cratic paper. the least l hear
about a Democrat the better
I like it. so / don't want no
Democratic paper to Read
Yours truly,
XYZ
Now I amt mentioning no names
nor no places nor nothin' else, all I'm
telling you is she amt no man what
wrote it. l have no information as to
her race, color, or previous condition
of servitude, but I will say this for
her: She mos" her mind, and there
amt no mistake about her politics.
It certainly is refreshing to meet-up
with an individual who don't mo" how
to beat about the bush, but leaves you
with a well established opinion as to
where he or she stands. This woman
says she amt no Democrat and she
means it. The Republican presiden-
tial nominee should receive lots of
encouragement as to his prospects in
this section, if he should happen to
see this letter-and, Of course he will
and he should promptly send her a
note of approval.
But l do think the writer might
have read "The Democrat" just once.
She got hold of sample copy sent
out in congratulation to all county
bonus recipients. There wasn't the
slightest effort made at PROSECUTING;
I honestly believe she could have read
one issue and still have remained a
Republican. And if she thinks she
couldn't, blest if I don't send out some
more samples. Maybe some of them
will get read and We'll have some more
Democratic votes next November.
This Democrat paper is a powerful
upholder of Democratic principles
and will garner the votes by any hon.
cradle means. This woman has given
me an idea, but didn't mo" it.
