results from their advertising
IN It.

duck for others.
No Discount" for one,
special discount" for an

Not every one in the world has a

him too. She liked to study the net
work of wrinkles in his kind, with
cred Ola race, ana, aDove all things,
she delighted to sit in his lap and
hear him discourse on the good book,
from Adam to John.
One evening he was telling her
about the flood and Noah and his
steam yacht, so very, very long
ago." To little Oracle a definite
period of time earlier than her great
grandfather birth was inconceiv-
able, so she asked:
"Were you with Noah in the ark,
grandpa?"
"No, dear, 1 wasn't"
Oracle looked puzzled. ''Well,
then," she asked, why weren't you
drowned?"-Boston Budget.

they are after, and the people can

this is just what the people are
