soda pop. Do you advise me to marry
him?" The editor answered.: ''No,
tender maiden, you would-not be hap

no more strength of character than
to drink pop will not be able to
make a living for you. If he drank
beer or straight rye you would have
the fun of reforming him. But pop
fiend would starve you. The oatmeal
box would grow achey with void and
the bacon box become a greasy mem

we married. No, dear, be sure to

GREAT NEWSPAPER BARGAIN.
The SEa1I-WEEKLY CAPITAL AND
The WORLD ONE YEAR FOR
81 SO.

The Semi-Weekly Capital, published
at Topeka, is one of the best farm
newspapers published anywhere. Re-
aliZing that good market report is
one of the most valuable features of a
farm newspaper, the Capital prints
twice "a week a full report of all the
markets of the world, including To
peka, and the report is absolutely re-
liable.
It prints all the news of the cIviliz-
ed world fresh from the wires of the
Associated Press, covering the field
more thoroughly than any of the met
ropolitan weeklies. But in the mat
ter of Kansas news, it has no cOmpeti-
tor, our large corps of special cores
pondents enabling US to cover the
field thoroughly. Outside of your own
home paper, you can get more local
news from the Capital than from any
other paper published.
Editorially it labors increasingly for
the States moral and material well
fare. While strongly republican in
politics, its editorials are fair and UNI
prejudiced. and its news columns are
open alike to the doings of all politi-
cal parties.
1t is printed twice week for only
S1.0O per year. Order it in connection
with The World for only $3.50
