At  one  time  I  wrote  advertisements  for  an  eminent  firm  iHiom
I  persuaded  that  to  tell  the  truth  in  them  would  be  the  greatest
novelty  out.  I  did  what  I  could  to  combine  picturesquenesa
with  veracity,  and  received  7s.  6d.  for  each  advertisement.  The
same  firm  still  advertises  or  I  should  give  their  names.  At
intervals  of  years  I  have  seen  some  of  my  old  work
announcements  of  fashionable  conmiodities.
