As  I  value  so  highly  your  paper  and 
the  way  you  try  to  help  subscribers 
when  in  trouble,  I  am  asking  you  if  you 
will  advise  ino  the  best  steps  to  take  in 
the  following.  We  are  two  young  peo¬ 
ple  with  very  limited  means  and  bought 
a  small  farm  here,  and  my  wife  being  a 
graduate  nurse  we  opened  up  a  home  for 
convalescents.  On  the  10th  of  October 
last  a  certain  Henry  James  of  the  Metro 
Picture  Company  of  42ud  Street,  and 
15’way,  New  York,  sent  us  a  young  lady 
with  the  promise  that,  lie  would  pay  her 
board,  which  was  to  be  $7  per  week,  The 
first  week  was  paid  on  her  arrival. 
Since  then  we  have  received  one  or  two 
small  installments  and 
stopped  altogether  and 
to  any  of  our  letters, 
is  <$33.  I  should  much 
suggestions  you  can  make, 
a  fiord  to  go  to  law  over  the 
Pennsylvania.

I  would  like  your  advice  regarding  a 
crate  of  eggs  shipped  to  I.  Koeppel,  443 
Hackman  St.,  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  on  the 
27th  of  May.  I  have  written  him  three 
times  and  he  does  not  reply  to  any  of 
my  letters.  I  have  a  delivery  bill  from 
the  express  company  showing  he  received 
the  eggs  on  May  29th,  and  he  signed  the 
lull,  also  the  driver’s  name.  Another 
man  in  our  neighborhood  sent  him  a 
case  of  eggs  and  never  received  pay  for 
it.  I  would  appreciate  your  advice  in  re¬ 
gard  to  this.  w.  F.  It. 
New  York. 
We  are  unable  to  induce  Mr.  Koeppel 
to  settle  this  account,  and  now  place  him 
on  the  list  of  those  to  be  avoided.  As  he 
sent  out.  cards  representing  himself  as  a 
commission  merchant,  we  are  sending  the 
complaint  to  the  Department  of  Agricul¬ 
ture  for  investigation,  as  no  license  had 
been  issued  to  Mr.  Koeppel  and  he  was 
not  permitted  to  solicit  goods  ou  com¬ 
mission.
