A reporter was passing along Sher- idan road near Irving Park boulevard when he noticed a small roll of money. As he reached for it a siim and smil- ing negro jumped out of a doorway and said: “Just a minute, hoss, I just missed it in time. It's mine, mister.” The finder turned to one side, saw how much there was in the small roll, and asked: [ “How much did you lose?” “Let me see,” sald the negro, still smiling and looking thoughtfully up | in the air! “’bout, let's see, now, | Ob-h-h-h, say 'bout 'leven dollars.” “Wrong,” sajd the reporter” “This amount is nothing like that.” _“Well,” sald the negro, shrugging his shouldets, “the best I could do, | You win!"—Chicago | boss, was try.

Itisthen important that the cof- fee served at your table ig of good 'quality and flavor. 4 ; 5 Lol Sunshine Coffee is a blended coffee, which has been ¢hosen frofn ‘many blends as the best flavored. - TR It is not cut, as most steel cut coffees are. It has been put;through rollers in such a man- ner that each unit of coffee is absolutely uni- . .form in size, so that when the boiling water is-poured on the coffee moré of the surface is exposed. The really delicious flavor of the coffee is more readily-extracted and it does not necessitate a long boiling process.
