How two Dizzy Girls Advertised Their Charms and Political Faith.
It has been said that the American people are the most original in the world in the invention of new styles of advertising. And facts will go far to prove this assertion. During a recent political demonstration in this city, a couple of Cyprians took advantage of the crowd to advertise their political faith and charms in a quite original way. During the passage of the processions, they stuck their pedal extremities from the window of the residence and held a rival banner of each of the candidates now before the people for president. Their little device for notoriety was successful from every point of view.
