We followed the usual plan of tethering

that he would not be able to withstand
such a tempting bait, and that we would
be able to polish him off without difficulty

Souvenir Coins-
The Official Souvenir
of the Great Exposition
5,000,000 of which were donated to the World's Columbian Exposition by the
Government, are being rapidly taken by an enthusiastically patriotic people.
As there early promised to be a demand for these Souvenirs that
would render them very valuable in the hands of speculators, the Exposition
Authorities decided to place the price at
$1.00 for Each Coin
and sell them direct to the people, thus realizing 15,000,000, and using the
additional money for the further development of the Fair.
Considering the fact that there were s& 5,000,000 of these coins to be '
distributed amomg 65,000,000 people, in this country alone (to say nothing
of the foreign demand,) and that many have already been taken, those wish
ing to purchase these mementoes of our Country's Discovery and of the
grandest Exposition ever held, should secure as many as they desire at once.
Realizing that every patriotic American
will want one or more of these coins,
and in order to make it convenient for
him to get them, we have made arrange
ments to have them sold throughout
the country by all the leading Merchants
and Banks. If not for sale in your town, send 1. 00 each for not less than
five coins, by Post-office or Express Money-order, Registered Letter or Bank
