There is not an establishment in the
country that carries a more compre-

remarked Uncle Josh. Every possible
piece of kitchen furniture from a tin
dipper to cooking range is here in
all styles and variety" If Polly fails

art, it will not be for want Of superior
cooking utensils, for she purchased an
Economist range with all other equip

for with delight cause he knew Frank

Just as he treats everybody.
Woman like, Polly was discussing
the matter of how she would arrange
her new house and was interrupted by
Uncle Josh. And those house fixin s

Again strolllng down the street,
Polly cast some wistful and eager
glances into the Southern Piano q

a coaxing smile she told Uncle Josh all
