On one oc- casion he d done so for a woman, who, on leaving him in the church- yard, offered him only barren thanks. As she went through the gate the wily man remarked: Well, ma'am, if you find you've, lost your purse when you get home, remember you didn't have it out here.” Hippocrates, the f?lher of medi- cine, mentioned the {herapeutic use Rl I T e L D Firem 1% 0% TITLE INSURANCE.

S.E At These 4 Stores Only Stains an Varnishes In One Application Univernish is a remarkable combination of transparent stain and Murphy Varnish. It renews natural wood color and varnishes at the same time. Comes in Light, Dark, and Bog Oak, Walnut, Ma- hosany and Green. Also in ar varnish. Murphy - ‘ | Univernish Univernish Tansparent Golof A The Universal Varnish C[_HE wonderful thing about Univernish is that anyone can use it and get beau- tiful results. One coat supplies both color and varnish and makes the most drab and lifeless surface radiate with the sparkling smile of youth. And it wears! For Univernish is tough and durable. Won't turn white from soap, boiling water, alkali or even ammonia! Take those worn floors of yours. All they need is the magic touch of Uni- vernish! A coat of clear Univernish on your linoleum will not only snap out color but will make future washing many times easier. On furniture, doors, thresholds, stairs or almost any surface, Univernish brushes away the scars of time and makes things new. If you have just a few surfaces to touch up, do them yourself. Qtherwise, call in your local painter. He’s a master of the renewing art. Remind him to use Univer- nish. He'll produce a job that will make your whole home seem years younger.
