$10,000 GIVEN AWAY
DURING PROSPERITY WEEK!
!
THIS being our first anniversary in this city, and having just closed the year with very satisfactory
results, we are going to give away $ 10,000 in real cash, and you don t have to sell
loap or perfume to receive your share. Not only do you receive REAL CASH
but an automobile that is about "foolproof."
Easiest riding, lowest up-keep, and with a starting system that starts.
A car that will go wherever there is a wagon track.
It's the best car by far.
Any one purchasing a 5-passenger 1916 HUPMOB1LE during Prosperity Week will receive
$110.00 in cash, while any one purchasing a 7-passenger will receive $125.00 cash.
This offer will be good only up to October 9th, and is not a reduction on the price of the car.
It's just a way of showing our good fellowship and doing something to help Prosperity along.
We will be glad to demonstrate to any one at any time.
