U.S. BABY TANK 25 Cents
It goes with real
Yankee Pep—by its own power
Most remarkable Toy ever
in-vented. By drawing the Tank backward, either with the hand or over
the floor or table and then placing it down, it will crawl along,
overcoming obstacles, in the same life-like manner as the larger Tank
that proved so deadly in the great war. What makes it go is somewhat of
a mys-tery, for there is no mechan-ism to wind up as is usually
understood with mechanical toys, yet this tank will keep plodding along
ten times longer than the ordinary run of toys. It will perform dozens
of the most wonderful stunts; it will go backward or forward at will. 8½
inches long. Price only 25 cents prepaid.

Sneezing Powder
Place a very small amount of
this pow-der on the back of your hand and blow it into the air, and
everyone in the room or car will begin to sneeze without knowing the

suspect the real source, but think they have caught it from the other.
Between the laughing and sneezing you yourself will be having the t[i]me
of your life. For parties, politi-cal meetings, car rides, or any place
at all where there is a gathering of people, it is the greatest joke

the button against the throat or chest to reproduce speech without sound
waves. $5.00 is given to anyone who sends in new suggestion for the use
of the Button providing the manufacturers find it suitable for use in
their literature. PRICE $1.00 POSTPAID ANYWHERE.
