There is enough interest
attached to the mystery of
the whereabouts of The
Broken Coin for you to
make a personal effort to
find it and have it returned
to its rightful owner. Be
on the lookout—let no clue
escape you. Remember—The
Broken Coin must be found.
Ill III
It was last traced to this
city—Is it mislaid among
a bunch of odds and ends?
It it carelessly thrown aside at
a trifle, when it it worth many
timet itt weight in gold? Sure-
ly someone it overlooking a
chance to make a fortune—
if you get a clue, advise
M. P. Editor of this paper.
Be on the watch.
Perhaps in tome out-of-
the-way comer. Maybe
in an old desk drawer.
Likely tossed aside at val-
ueless^—but worth much
to the finder and more
to the people of Gretz-
hoffen. Search every odd
place for The Broken
Coin.
