OFFERING HUSBANDS AS PRIZES
A Bello tradesman has lately issued a cir cular promising to best: a husband, in the person of his son, upon the spinster who shall, within a year's space, collect the most coupons, one of which is given, with each purchase to the value of marks. To the prize husband, a wedding gift, he has promised to bestow a share in his business,,
This singular offer, though, of course, of rare occurrence to the commercial world, is not without precedent." Some years since a Loads firm of drapers circulated among its customers penny tokens, whereon was depicted a stylishly dressed man surrounded by the legend, “A Husband for a Guinea," signifying that such as expended that amount on the firm's gooda were allowed one chance in a raffle. for an aligible young man, the Junior partner in the. bouse..

To the early years of our late Queen's reiga the proprietor of a library at one of the leading Kentish watering places issued the announce- ment of a lottery for a husband, who was guaranteed to be in the enjoyment of an aonuity of not less than £10 per annum. The event created quite a stir, as the prize was a handsome young fellow, who appeared to be in every way eligible. Great, then, waw' the diamay created- by the arrival on the very day when the draw was advertised to take place of a couple of | GRAMOPHONES and RECORDS) Londen contables, by whom the much- admired Adonis was arrested on a charge of fraud.

The agreement signed, the tailor made public announcement that he would be stow a husbandfupon that splaster or widow who should bring most custom to his estab ment within twelve months, After a keen competition the prize was carried off by a buxom widow of 65, whe, 'besides introducing her eight sons to the 'clothier's notice, was the means of inducing over a score of brothers, cour'ns and nephews to patrodise bis shop.
