We have a snbscriptinn publication 

 which sells more n-udily than Htiy of tho 

 above. The demimd is nlreHdy so tre-

We have flrraneed a plan whereby 



Any Progressive Man or Woman 

 Can Share These Profits 



becoming stockholders in a profitable 

 business, based on twenty years' eij-eri- 

 ©nee. Remember, the success of this iiubli- 

 cation is not tiwiiy off in the future— it is 

 not prospective, but it ie a success at the 

 present time and Rrowing in demand 

 every liour. Sales of this publication at

Often Exceed $2000 a Day 



This is an exceptional opportunity for 

 those of small means to get in on tho 

 ground floor in a business which legiti- 

 mately pays large dividends and is as 

 solid as the Roekof tiibraltar. It cannot 

 be held open for long as the response is 

 certiiin to be so creat that we shall 

 have all the capital we need to increase 

 the number of our presses and secure 

 stock to be turned out in completed 

 books, which are selling like wildtire- 



You owe it to yourself to investigate 

 this opportunity. You will never have a 

 a chance like this again to become 



Part Owner in a 

 Mammoth Publishing House 



which is alreadv in successful operation, 

 already earning big dividen<l9.iind which 

 IB led to sell a small amount of its stock 

 simply because the business is alreinl> so 

 tremendous as to exhaust the working 

 capital. But if > on would grasp this op- 

 portunity you must
