A smooth swindler has been working the housewives of Auburn and vicinity. His plan was to get them to act as his agent for a cure-all pill promising that when a certain number of boxes were sold, a set of dinner dishes, fifty-four pieces, would reach them as a premium. The last bait was alluring, and a number of women sold the pills, turned over the cash and are now waiting for the dishes: One woman exposed the scheme She sold the required quantity of pills and decided to hold the cash until the dishes were delivered, but they have failed to arrive.
