AiSilCoi Till
perhaps, in daily need OF. An
agate potato fryer is one OF
them. They save trouble, pre-
vent dyspepsia, and give you
potatoes that are palatable and
free from grease. They are SO
superior to the old style uten-
sill that you will not be without
one once you have tried it.
You know what it is to have
a miserable light dangling I'M
der your brake, don't you?
Well, we offer you a lantern
that does not need another one
to show where the Lights. We
refer to the "Dietz Carriage
Lamps A perfect miniature
head light that throws the light
twenty feet ahead of the horse.
We've sold a lot of them, and
people tell us that they are the
best they have ever tried.
Nickel or Japan as you prefer.
The price is the same. So is
the light.
How do you do about ice
water; make it in a pitcher or
use a cooler? We like a
cooler, Gf you don't use fill
teri, because it saves trouble,
and the water is iced at all
times. The ice lasts longer,
you know, if kept from the air.
This last lot of Coolers re-
ceived includes some in imita-
ton hard woods, shaped like a
small key. Others are the
regular shape, and a decided
ornament to any room. They're
all good in quality and will
last a life time.
We have another novelty
this week,-came just in the
nick of time too. It's a little
pocketable dark lantern, in
nickel throws a good light
and is as pretty as it is useful
for what it is intended. The
mysterious individual who
prowls around at night in his
bare feet makes it necessar,
for one to look about the house
before retiring. Dirty foo
prints are not desirable any
where, and this lantern is JUS
the thing to enable one to see
in the dark corners withou
being seen. Policemen ir
England use them altogether
So do bicyclists. We think
they are handy to have abou
the house, if only to use ii
