WE HAVE FOR SALE

INVESTMENT PROPERTY Good for 10 net income. WM. H. BRADBURY 80N. 1 ft 3 Westcott Block.

Washington. Dec. 4. Postoffice inspectors, after a year of work, have succeeded in suppressing one of the cleverest attempts ever devised to mulct the public through the medium of the mails. The native charity of the average American was the stock in

trade of the swindlers, who apparently started out with the purpose of capitalizing affliction.

Out in a central western state there

is a little armless girl who has proved

herself to be worth a net profit of from

$S5 to $150 a day through the sale of a

little booklet, the story of her sad little life, which is illustrated with.

pathetic pictures of her engaged in performing the usual manual offices with her feeL The fac simile of a letter which the little girl had written with her toes accompanied the book

let, as did a card for mailing coin.

The recipient was asked to send a

quarter to help defray the expenses of providing the little cripple with a home and engaging some nice motherly Hoosler to care for her.

Staff of Eleven Assistants. The appeal proved such a success

that when the inspectors finally reported on the conditions, they had discovered the little cripple's staff of assistants numbered eleven and the bus

iness was combining in an average

daily profit of $100. The child is now

well established and the acute person who had the foresight to advance the

money necessary for the initial publi

cation of her book on the basis of 50

per cent, to him on the business de

veloped is comfortably well off.

The chief difficulty confronting the

inspectors was the method to pursue

n stopping the graft The little girl's

affliction was such that she was certainly entitled to the privilege of mak

ing her living by the sale of the pamphlet, but the appeal on the ground that she was in dire need of a home

the department construed as a misstatement of fact, in view of the annual income of the concern, approximating $30,000. They compelled the elimination of the appeal. The busi

ness dwindled materially after this

was done and the cripple and her man

ager retired. No fraud order was is

sued.

What It will do hos-o

At most shoe stores women who try to get their footwear wants satisfied at this price get only dissatisfaction. They find that the kind of shoes they can buy are not the kind they want to wear. They find that they are not the kind of shoes that will give good service, or the kind that will hold their shape. The kind of shoes we sell for $3 not only look well when they are tried on. but THEY RETAIN THEIR SHAPE AND STYLE DURING LONG WEAR. They not only look well on the outside, but an examination of their hidden points will show that they are made well. They are not merely stylish, they are strictly up to date. They will not only give satisfactory service, but they will give unexpectedly good service. They are not merely carried in a few styles; they are carried in so many styles that every taste can be suited. They do not merely come in one kind of leather; they come IN EVERY KINO THAT FASHION DECLARES IS CORRECT. They are not merely made on one last and carried in a few sizes; they are made on many lasts and carried In every size so that EVERY FOOT CAN BE FITTED PERFECTLY. They are not made to sen to women who are merely seeking work shoes, or shoes for ordinary weajtj women buy them and wear them for dress shoes.
