has done, and will stand by him in the
further action OF suppressing the rebel
lion. When that is accomplished, and
the Filipinos have laid down their arms,
they will be given such form of govern

ceive no detriment in coming in contact

A Boston society with long name has
undertaken to solve this problem: Is it
cheaper to buy preserves, jellies and can
ned fruits, or to put them up at home?
AS basis for calculating the cost of pre-
serving at home the following figures are
given: 'Reliable statistics show that do
nestle service in the East costs S. 0S5 an
hour, and that the cost of heat averages
5000 per pound when the laundry work
is done at home, and S.0O3 when the
Laundry work is done out of the house"
Then the cost of the fruit, sugar, etc is
to be given and the amount of the fin
ished product. 1t seems to us that the
problem is a difficult one, because of the
many varying conditions; but the canned
goods will no doubt prove to be the
cheapest as less sugar is used in them
and they are put up by wholesale.

They like to drink water without

They would rather walk upstairs
than take an elevator,
They use ordinary portable bath
tubs in place of stationary porcelain
or metal ones such as we have.
What seems to us the funniest
thing Of all is that they absolutely
prefer chicory in their coffee.
1t is easy enough for any one to
get adultcrated coffee in this coun-
try. But the good housewife watches
carefully that she is not thus i'm
posed upon.
Those who have learned by ex-
perience and wish to be absolutely
sure that they are getting pure coffee
and the best coffee, without a grain
of adulteration, ask for and insist
upon having Chase s oanborn's
Coffees.
There is none better on the mar
ket. Every bean has been carefully
selected from plantations, famous
for their coffee crops.
The fact that these coffees bear
the seal of Chase & Sanborn is in
itself sufficient guarantee that they
