She Can't Find Time

at that time her household cares
and duties for the day have fairly
begun. If she be an economical,
up-to-date housewife, and there
are many such in FL Paso, she
will hail with delight the near ap-
prOach of an evening paper, for
in it she can always rely on the
news of the morning and that,
also, of the afternoon, being
chronicled at one and the same
time.
And then she has time to
observe the many we'll displayed

bargain marts. The information
thus cleaned serves a double
benefit, in that she economies
her time by perusing an up-to-
date afternoon daily, and invar-
iably makes her purchases of an
afternoon advertiser.
