It went overseas to get a reputation. And it made good. Since the Winter of 1917, its Welch quality flavor has been giving the Boys a little touch of home — sweet home. Grapelade is more than jelly or jam —it is a refinement —just the wholesome richness and juice of the fmest Concord Grapes and the correct amount of pure sugar —no seed—no skins or gritty acid crystals. Buy a jar of Grapelade today. As a spread on bread, toast, muffins or biscuit it is incomparable. It makes the best dishes better. 15-oz. Glass Jars, 35c.; 25-oz. En- amel-lined Tins, $0c.

B. Altman & Co. Arnold, Constable & Co. Best & Company Bivom! pingeave Bros. Bonwit, PETE TN AIT TTS TE Some are in billets and camps back of the deserted trenches, anxiously awaiting orders to entrain for an embarkation port. Still others are in the great American hospitals, being made over by skilful sur- geons into a semblance of the men they were when we bade them good-bye. Each one of them is looking to US to get him home again. Those boys know that the American people in four great Liberty Loans provided eighteen billion dollars to back them‘ up while they were fighting for us over there. They know that the VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN campaign is on, to provide the funds to finish the job and bring them home. And each boy of that million or more is full of faith that we will not forget his needs, now that the fighting is over. ‘ Are we at home going to keep faith with these boys? Help make our answer heard around the world. Invest in the VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN to the limit of your ability.
