Education By Mail.
This may be the last issue of the Ap
pleton Independent that the editor
shall ever pen. Ten days from now we
have every hope of being employed at
$50,000 per annum.
We have before us on our desk an ad.
The 72 point heading says: .“From $50
a Month to $50,000 a Year in (July Ten
Days.” It Closes by promising, “You
Can Do It Too—Simply fill Out and
Return the Coupon Today.’’ We have
signed (he coupon and it is now in the
mail. Having already ordered a lim
ousine. we are now negotiating for a
steam yacht.
Last month the editor started a
course in ‘‘will power development”
and succeeded in generating enough
will power to say “NO” emphatically
when the wife announced that we were
going to the movies—but we went.
You cannot ke.ep a man down if he
will only take advantage of education
by maii.—Appleton Independent .
