HOLDING A HUSBAND Adele Garrison’s Revelations The “Cause For Thought” Dicky Gave Madge. “I say, Madge.” Dicky spoke abruptly after a silence which for him was unusual. It had lasted two or three minutes, dand I was beginning to wonder if I had said anything to effend him.

A street shoe with a low heel, round toe of perforated patent leather, has three straps, over the instep.

Grunty Pig began to whimper. “What have I done?” he whined. “You've deceived me!” his mother cried. “You haven't seen a bear. You've never seen a bear in all your life.” “Ouch!” Grunty howled, as his mother sext him sprawling once more. “I didn’t mean any harm. 1 was only having fun with you.” “Well,” said his = mother. “Turn about is fair play.

And TWLs he enjoved his holiday to the full— until he remembered suddenly that he had been gone a long time—a much longer time than he had planned to spend away from the farmyard. “Oh, dear! he whined. ‘“Mother must be awake now; and she’ll punish me if I go back.

WEBSTER FLOUR When we launched DANILL WEBSTER flour on the market a comparatively short time agr, we anticipated success, as we knew we were offering to the consurier the best flour ever produced, and the discriminating consumer iy a0t slow to recognize mexit in a really meritorious article. However, the popul.rity of DANIEL WEBSTER has grown far excess of our most sapsuine anticipations. It has already pl.ased thousands of housewives. Its quality ha been a stronger argu.ment than could have been made by tongue or pen. It may well ko called “A flour of quality.” “Better than the best,” and we can truthfully clajm for it “Once known, never for- gotten.” Clean, pare, wholesome and. sanitary, DANIED WEBSTER flour will ever contir.ue to lecad where the consumer demands the' best. Ours is a progressive cowmnpany and our mill is equipped with the most modern contrivances known to .nan, it being our constar aim and inteution to give to the consumers of DANIED WEBSTER Flour the very best flour in the world. While DANIEL WEBSTER costs originally a little more than other flours, *“The value rectived more than equals the higher cost.” Your bread will be more nutriticus, will have a finer flavor and will remain sweet and fresh longer; and you can outain more bread than from an equal quantity of any other flour. A trial will _convince you. DANIEL WEBSTER Flour will make its own arguments and appeal to you as eloquently as did the re nowned man whose name it bears. The guarantee protects you. Please read it: “If you are not thoroughly convinced that DANIEL WEBSTE Flour has produced the bes: bread you cver baked after you have used an entire sack of it, return the empty sack to the dealer, leave your name with him, and the purchase price wil! be refung. ed and charged to us.” W.J.CAHILL CO.
