A Profitable Business.

As a book of art, “Breakfast, Dinner, and Supper” excels all books of its class. In addition to the many handsome chapter headings, the book contains over seventy illustrations, many of which occupy a full page. The type work is artistic throughout, and the binding is elegant, the cover being embossed in jet and gold.

This book is meeting with a very rapid sale. Considering the valuable matter contained, and the elegance of its appearance, it is the cheapest subscription book on the market at the present day, as the following prices will testify:— English Cloth, Old Gold, Red Edges, ........$2.00. Imperial Green Cloth, Gilt Edges, ........2.50. Half Morocco, Marbled Edges, ........3.00.

In addition to this we have secured from a baker of long experience, a number of very rare recipes, many of them known only to the trade. It is safe to say that these “bakers’ secrets” could not be bought by the housewife for $25. These are printed on a separate, four-page sheet, and one copy is furnished to every purchaser of the book.

AGENTS WANTED EVERYWHERE,

In the United States and the Canadas. We are prepared to give the most liberal discounts that can be offered, on first-class publications. Our confidential terms to agents, with full instructions in our methods of doing business, will be furnished on application. We shall be glad to correspond with experienced agents who are prepared to engage a sufficient force of agents to work one county or more in good shape. We can offer such special inducements. Our terms to agents are liberal, and our outfit is complete.

CANVASS HOME TERRITORY.

Some who would make excellent canvassers have other duties and cares which prevent their going far from home or employing all their time in the business. Such can put many a dollar in their purse, and add many luxuries to their homes, by devoting their spare time to the canvass of their own neighborhood. We shall be glad to correspond with all such.

We furnish our outfits at cost of production, but send none free. Our terms are so liberal we cannot afford it. Besides, our experience has taught us that working agents do not object to paying for their outfits; it is the drones who beg them.
