as foremost, and the only attribute he
seems to have outgrown is caution
There he is. magnificently tall, athletic
and muscular, gray as a badger, but

lost nothing of their fire and his stride
nothing of its scope or elasticity. He
can outwalk and outride many a
youngster even now, and to say he is
tireless puts it altogether too mildly.

DO YOU BUY BREAD?

Do you buy your bread? If so why
not buy the best when you know it is
made clean and kept clean until it is
delivered to you? Why not buy your
bread at the place that uses only the
best of flour? The mill company of
which the Model Bakery buy their
flour offers five thousand dollars to
any mill who will produce better or
purer flour. The Model Bakery uses
only the very best of all kinds of ma

ed as not to be dangerous.
