This detection . . . entitles us to the reward . . . and we herewith . . . make demand upon you for the payment...

With a substantial Coca-Cola contract be sides, James Melton will make an easy $100,000 this year. It enables him to live in an expensive penthouse apartment, keep a sailing yacht on the Hudson...

Wide-awake, observant, she is a normal person with only a few such quaint fancies as Coca-Cola for breakfast. Unashamed of her age, she has on her stationery: "Established 1904." She likes cheap vaudeville as much as she dislikes tennis, bridge and other games. A graduate of Goucher College in Baltimore, she greets Manhattan moods with rapturous surprise, is convinced...
