Owing to the failure, during the recent panic, of a large manufacturer
of =Fine Cashmere Shawls= we were enabled to secure an enormous quantity
of Plaid Shawls at a fraction of the cost to manufacture, and propose
to =give them away absolutely Free= as follows: To every person who
sends us =25= cents for one year’s subscription to =MODERN STORIES=, a
large 16-page handsomely illustrated story and family paper, containing
fascinating stories and a choice piece of sheet music each issue, by
authors of worldwide reputation, we will send one shawl absolutely
=FREE=. Remember there are no conditions, our offer is fair, square and
absolute. Every person who cuts this ad. out and returns to us with =25=
cents for our paper one year gets a shawl =FREE=. If you want one send
=now=. Address,
