We want Llv*, Energetic and Capa­ ble Agon ts in e?erv county in ilie United States and Ortitrt.ila, to sell a patent article of gr<*al merit, on its merit*. An article having a large sale, paying over 100 per cent, preflt, having no competition,and on which the agent is protected in the exclusive sale by a deed given for each and every county he may secure from lis. With all these advantages to our agents, and the fact that it is an article that can be sold to every houseowner, it might not be necessary to make an "Extraordinary Offer" tu secure good agents at once, but we have concluded to make it to show, not only our confidence in the merits of our invention, but in its sta­ bility by an agent that will handle it with energy. Our agents now, at work are making from $150 to $6^0 a month clear, and this fact makes it safe for us to make our oiler to all who are out ot' employment. Any ngent that will give our business a thirty days' trial and fail to clear at least $100 ir. this lime.a&ove atl expenses, can return all goods unsold to us and we will relund the money paid for theui. Any agent or general agent who would like ten or more coun­ ties and work them through sub-agents for ninety days and fail to clear at least $750 above aU expenses* can return all unsold and get their money back. No other employer of agents ®ver dared to make such offers, nor would we if we did not know that we have agents now making more than double the amount we guaranteed, ami hut two sales a day would give a profit of over #125 a month, and that one of our agents look eighteen orders in one day.
