     This chain was started in order that you
might get a collection of handkerchiefs.
     Make 4 copies of this letter & within 3
days send to 4 of your friends whom
you wish to receive hankies. Omit the
top name & address, send that person a
hankie. Then add your name & address
to the list.
    When your name reaches the top you
will receive 256 hankies.
    Isn't that worth a hankie?
   Have faith in your friends & this chain
will not be broken.
    If you do not do this return the letter
to the name at the bottom of the list.
