Is running an Auto Truck Express Lowell & Chicago twice a week--Tuesdays and Fridays; will take anything to Chicago and bring anything wanted from Chicago.
    Commencing November 1 I shall discontinue gathering EGGS on the road and will receive them at my store. I shall give away to the Twenty-seven Different Parties who bring to my store the most Eggs the following articles. The party bringing in the most Eggs during the month of November gets first choice; then the party bringing the next greatest number gets second choice and so on down the twenty-seven, viz:
