Wher ever I called to sell Itroadrlh'M cleaning powder I found that they had .lust re eelved a package of the Kxcelslor re mover for trial, and siuee the article was satisfactory there was no chance lu that family for mine. I concluded to kill competition by meaiiN of the newspapers, not by attacking the re mover, but by calltiiK attention to my own ptcds by luKeiiloua advertise ments My llrst ad.

She asked what I wanted it for. and I told her that I should use it to remove from that territory the agent of the Lxcelslor article, as she was interfering seriously wllh the sale of Itroadrlb's clcunsini; powder, which : I was handling. i There was ti alight (piiikiug up of the corners of her pretty mouth its she replied that It would require a thousand packages to remove the agent, but If I eared to buy so many she would sell them to mo at the wholesale price and with all the dis counts whe had obtained from the own ers. I asked her If the thousand pack ages were her entire stock and If she would guarantee not to buy any more: also If there would be enough to re move the agent to my otllce as clerk and advertisement writer. "Not if you propose to store the Itrondrlb cleaning powder and the llx celslor remover lu the same building." she replied. "Why notr "Together they would eradicate the ground under the building and It would collapse.' When we spoke seriously I learned that she was trying (o support an in valid mother by selling the remover, and I look myself otT to anotln-r Held, leaving the one about Mercerville to her Hut I paid her Sl.'i a week to write ads. for tne and made a fortune out of them.
