Four ounces ot perfume
were mixed with1 the ink
that printed this week's is-
sue of The Enterprise to help
call attention to the ad be-
ing run by B*uee Williams
in which he offers orchids
with the purchase of Cash-
mere Bouquet soap.
We don't know how fast
the perfumed smell will fade
away, but we hope it still
exists when our readers re-
ceive their papers.
The fellow who left the
perfume with us said use
one ounce to eight pounds
of ink. The srae 1 was so
faint with this mixture, that
we kept adding more and
more until wo had the mix-
ture up to four ouhees for
eight pounds of ink.
It almost ran us out of the
shop, but it still seems pret-
ty faint in the paper.
