Why Not Make an Exhibit at Your Fair? 



Don't you think it would pay you to obtain a stock of say anywhere from $10 

 lo $100 worth of Shells, Agates and Carios to add a variety to your present col- 

 lection, and make an exhibit at yov.r own and neighboring Fairs this Fall? 



THERE'S $ $ IN IT! 



At a good Fair, with a suitable display you could sell from $10 to $100 per day, 

 upon which there would be a GOOD BIG profit. 



Now I will have lots of just such material on hand at Chautauqua, N. Y., and 

 Lakeside, Ohio, that will remain unsold. Rather than ship back home, will sell 

 at very low rates. It may not be convenient for you to personally make your 

 selections at either of the above places, but if you will send the amount you wish 

 to invest and give me an inkling of about what you want, I will personally and 

 judiciously make a selection that I will guarantee to give you big satisfaction in 

 every particular and will make the prices to you lower than you could possibly 

 duplicate elsewhere. 



^Remember I also carry a full line of Agate, Spar, Pyrites and Shell Jewelry, 

 and Novelties. Write what you want and write quick as the season will be prac- 

 tically over at both places ou September 1st. 



Faithfully, 

 FRANK A. LiATHN, Albion, N. Y.
