Show A CHANCE FOR YOU. We are going to help you and ourselves at the same time. We are going to educate you up to the value of using the classified classi-fied department of The Free Press. Have you any idea of the money you could make if you were to let all the people in this country know what you had for sale? Do you know that no matter mat-ter how apparently useless some article has grown, some other person has a use for that article and will buy it? But he can not buy it if he does not know where to get it. In the big cities the classified departments of the newspapers are as interesting as the news columns.. In fact they contain real live news. And those who use them are reaping great advantages ad-vantages both the buyers and the sellers. Of late the smaller papers are pushing their classified departments depart-ments into more prominence. The other day we picked up a weekly, published in a county seat town in Wisconsin. Its classified column was "A WONDER." WON-DER." Apparently everyone in the county was using and reading read-ing it. Lack of space prevents us from reproducing it. although we would like to dr. so. But here are a few of the things that were advertised for sale by the farmers and the townspeople: townspeo-ple: Houses, lots farm?, glass cupboard, chickens, sewing machine, ma-chine, turkeys, rugs, eggs, upholstered uphol-stered goods, crockery, gtesc. butter, correspondence school course, cheese, feathers, manure, incubator, horses, finger ring, automobile, jars of fruit, fence posts, hogs, (plain and fancy,) embroidery lessons, suit of clothes cloth-es and fur overcoat, socks, cream separator, . two calves, concrete block machine, tame bear, gasoline engine, heating stove, hay, rag carpets, home cured hams and bacon, wind mill, a general store, soy beans, alfalfa alfal-fa meal, desk and chair, typewriter, type-writer, cabinet organ, short horn bull, bird dog, hay stacker, rake and loader, five tons of coal and a gun. If you have any of the above named articles for sale or anything any-thing like them let us know, and we will run a classified ad in The Free Press. The cost is very small only 10 cents per line for one insertion or 15 cents per line for three insertions. For 5 cents per line we will keep your ad runnig for 10 weeks.
