A SCHOOL FOR CARTO0NIsTs.

A Milwaukee man ohscured under
the patronymc of Smith has come for
ward with a timely suggestion. Mr.
Smith wishes the UniNe! sity of Wis
consin to establish chair of humol
for the benefit of cartoonists. He In
cludes after dinner speaking and story
telling in the course. but these are OF
little moment compared to the real ller-
mel OF his plan. 1t is the suggest OF
school of humor for 2artoonists that
strikes keynote To which the nerves of
the whole country will CULVER in re-
Spouse.
/ There is a lesson as we'll as laugh
or sigh in true humor. The real car
,oonist is public benafactor and like
all great good he is scarce and comes
| high.
| 1t is not enough that cartoonist may
be able to caricatlre. Carcature is
often funny. but offensive and devoid
of humor The true cartoon points a
moral and drives home truth. It's
kumor is merely a vehicle. its primary
purpose not to furnish mere smuse
ment, but to teach something. There
must be brains back of The cartoon as
we'll as mimetic aptitude If it is TO
furnish an effective weanon for satire
and turn the searchlight of ridicule up
on wrong. The cartoon has a mission,
but lacks missionaries If the aver
age alleged artistic, abortion Is to be
considered par example.
There are few newspaper cartoon
lists in Iowa and Minnesota whose work
is of an excellent class. If Mr.. Smith
may be able to secure them as mem
bers of his faculty and achieve a COM
pulsory measure to force the artists of
the art supplements of Chicago Sun
day papers into the prep" department
he will have added another name to the
galaxy of Smiths which acknowl edges
Captain John" as it's bright central
star. Something ought 10 be done and
Mr.. Smiths plan is entirely worthy of
trial.

MIXING and CURING.


After the coffee berries reach our
warehouse they are carefully tested
and blended while still green in the
correct proportions to produce that
delicious flavor and aroma which
have made Dudley Coffees famous.
This blending is a delicate process,
for no two lots can be blended in
like proportions to produce the
same results. After this blending
they are aged and cured by our
special process, which insures the
consumer against harmful effects
which follow excessive use of the
average brand of coffee.

been blended before roasting they
flavor perfectly during this proc

between Mixers of cofees and
Blenders" of coffees. Anyone
can mix coflees, but blending
coffees is an art and lifelong
study. The Blender of Dudley's

SELECTION OF BERRY.

1t is not generally known by the
average coffee consumer that these
new possessions of ours can pro-
duce coffees which cannot be eX-
celled by Arabian, Brazilian or Java
growths. Owing, however, to the
different nature of the rich soil, the
coffee grown on these islands pos
sesses a peculiarly palatable flavor,
not to be found in coffee berries
grown elsewhere. 1t will be noted
by the purchaser of package OF
Dudley Coffee that the berry IS OF
an unusual shape. The utmost
care is used by our buyers in Sc
lecting coffee berries to maintain a
uniform quality.
