Soda in the city to-day.

THE public justly assumes that
the man who shows keen interest
in his business will be entirely up
to-date in the character Of his wares.
People can tell whether a man adver-
tises only because he must, or be-
cause he is wide awake, eager to do
business and confident of the merits
OF what he offers. The tone Of an
lad suggests much.

perteetly straight, but there is
species OF harder wood found in
abundance along the roadside and in

which is very crooked This kind is

Then the parts are bored through and
wood pins inserted These pins are
made secure by driving into the ends
