ARE YOU A CRANK

pn what you drink2 Do you dearly relish a cup of good coffee? If you do, we want to meet just such cranks. It's a pleasure to sell Tea and Coffee to people who are particular as to the quality they want; and why? Because when you sell them the good kind they are pleased and they con tinue to buy as long as you give them the good quality, and when you give them an inferior quality they give you the cold shoulder and who'd blame. them? We sell three different blended Coffees at 25c per pound; either one will suit anyone who wants a cup of good Coffee; mind you, all three will not suit you, but either one of the three will surely tickle your palate and you'll never know what the quality is until you try them. Golden Java, Brass City or Broadway blend are our leaders at 25c per pound. Say, did you read Sundays N. '. papers and see where the Span ish noblewoman. Dona Maria Francis ca O'Reilly de Camara. Countess of Buena Vista, (she should drop the O'Reilly) is suing a U. $. soldier be- cause he wouldn't let her slaughter and sell all the cattle needed for con- sumption in Havana? This woman {and they call her a noblewoman) doesn't know what she's missing by living in Cuba. Why the dickens doesn't she come to the United States and join the beef trust or the Water bury ice trust? She'll make fortune upon fortune and she'll have the law on her side of the fence. But, say; she is the kind of crank we wouldn't want coming to our store for good Golf fee; we'd be tempted to roast her ev- cry time we got the chance, we have such a burning love for these trusts and monopolies, don't you know, at

The defeat Of Representative Woot

bert Sidney Burleson, without rival
as to the wearing Of a Napoleonic lock.
Upon Wooten's classic head are only
few scattering hairs. but these are
carefully brushed down to the mid

fashion of hairdressing. Mr.. Burle-
son also has a curl right in the middle
OF his forehead, and his smooth-shav-

to the great French soldier. With
Wooten out of congress, Burleson will
stand alone as the possessor Of the
Napoleonic lock.
