The piece of goods 18 passed through the Measuregraph, and as many yards as desired are quickly and ac- curately measured. ‘A dial 1.1 top of the instrument, like’ of a_watch,. registers.the num yards as the plece ot cloth paBses through. Say you'want 3 7-8 yards of silk, at $1.69 a yard. Quick! is that? You don’t’'know unless you stop and’-figuré. it .with paper and pencil, but the Measuregraph shows the answer the moment the hands on the dial stop at 3 7-8. Six dollars and fifty-five cents is the nmount madam. ‘From the customer’s standpoint it is gratifying*tp know that when a certain yardage is'ordered, there is eliminated all doubt that perhaps the salesperson made & mistake and un- intentionally cut a quarter or an eighth yard less than was intended.

T ‘Sxibscrme for the Plopeér A SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 12, 1920 Why heat your whole house with a coal or wood oL B fire in order to take a bath when a : HUMPHREY Water Heater does the ‘work more cheaply, quickly and neatly . The Bemidji Gas Company has just received a larze delayed shlpment of the Tank Heaters which can be seen and demonstrated at their office on Beltrami avenue. We have a number of. bjpck ; orders for these heaters which will receive immediate attentlon, but if you have not already ordered, better . do so at once, as there is no telling how soon another shipment will be received. EXTRA SPECIAL Hot weather is here at last. Why swelter in the heat when a brick of made up of two layers with STRAWBERRY CRUSHED FRUIT- AND NESSELRODE PUDDING Will make that Sunday Dinner or the lunch in the shade a grand success.

Ask for 1t Langdon M’fg Company My Neighbor MY NEIGHBOR lets weeds grow in his gai‘den, he lets his house run down, and all hls famlly look patched. MY NEIGHBOR decxdes many unportant things; and he is sure all things would be all right if they were done his way. MY NEIGHBOR decided long ago that a'dvertising was waste; that he would never.read it because he did not want anyvon‘e to tell him What to buy ' MY NEIGHBOR may be right. The moon may be made of g'reen " cheese. But, asI see it, T MY N EIGHBOR is no neighbor of mine; he Just hxes next door be- “cause he was born fifty years too late s MY NEIGHBOR spends as much money to l_1ve poorly as I do to livewell. Asmost of my money goes to meet living expenses, 1 want all the good thmg's it will bring me. Advertisements tell me all about these good things.- Ad- _vertisements 'give me the op- portunity - to compare all varieties of the things T would buy. Advertisements help me pick the best for my pur- pose and my purse. - I will not argue with-my neighbor. He may be right; but, personally, I would rath- er “be myself than be my neighbor. I know reading advertise- ments saves money for me. Deafactiy
