Now it is well known a minkN has a keen seent can smell a dried apple a mile distant. The mink sneak up on Hip dried apple and sniff when the pepper and snuff gels in the dirty work and goes up the mink's nose. Xow, no respectable! mink can stand for that, and in giving a violent sneeze it strikes its head on the hard rock and knocks itself out. That's aW simple enough. Then comes the work of the expert.

It grew late, as so often it does; and he put the quietus on a discussion with the ponderous statement: "I don't read advertisements. They have no effect on me at all. I'd never miss them if they stopped print-ing em. Then he glanced at his advertised watch and sought his lower birth. In the morning the ad-skeptic contorted himself out of his advertised pyjamas into his advertised underwear, drew on his advertised socks, adjusted them with his advertised garters, got into his advertised clothes, laced his advertised shoes and added himself to the congestion in the wash-room. There he shaved with an advertised razor, using advertised shaving cream; brushed his teeth with an advertised toothbrush and advertised dental cream, washed with advertised soap, and brushed his hair with an advertised brush. Buttoning his advertised collar on an advertised button, he neatly knotted his advertised tie.gave his advertised suspenders a tug or two, and finished dressing. Let us leave him there, this man who never reads advertisements! Everything worth using is advertised. Everything that isn't, rarely is.
