We have a BUbscription publication 

 which sells more readily than any of the 

 above. The demand in already so tre- 

 mendous that mc^re capital is required to 

 awing it. or get behind on orders. Profits 

 are enormous, several times aavlngs bank 

 interest. 



We have arranged a plan whereby 



Any Progressive Man or Woman 

 Can Share These Profits 



becoming stockholders in a profitable 

 business, based on twenty yeans' experi- 

 ence. Ri-member.the success of this publi- 

 OHtion is not Hwity off in the future — it ia 

 not prospective, hut it is a su<'ceB8 at the

This is an exceptional opportunity for 

 thone of small meaus to get in on the 

 ground floor in a business which legiti- 

 mately pays large dividends and is aa 

 solid aa the Rock of tiibraltar. It cannot 

 be held open for long as the response is 

 certain to be so great that we shall 

 have all the capital we need to increase 

 the number or our presses and secure 

 stock to be turned out in completed 

 books, which are selling like wildfire. 



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 already in successful operation, 

 already eiiruing hie dividends. and which 

 IB led tosi'll a small amount of its stock 

 eimply because the business is already eo 

 tremendous as to exhaust the working 

 capital. But if you would grasp this op- 

 I>ortunity you must
