DRINK

means to swallow a liquid, to imbibe. Of course there are different kinds of liquids. We all have a choice as to which we like best. Now people should be very careful what they drink. We all know or at least sur- mise what intoxicating drinks will do to our brains and, in fact, to our health. Therefore we should be very solicitous as far as drinking is con cerned. Our advice to the public Is to drink nothing stronger or more 1nJurl- ous than good, nice tasting, palatable Tea, Coffee or Cocoa, and you shouiu be very careful where you purchase them. If you buy at our store we non estly believe you make no mistake. oe cause we do all our own buying ana we are just egotistical enough to ln- form you of the fact that we know where all the Teas and Coffees grow and which is the trashy, cheap quallty and which is the good flSfnd-we never will buy the poor quality. We want your trade and the only way to set you is to sell a fine quality at prlce you pay for poor quality elsewhere This week we will give you a very large cup and saucer or four pafs ., the best laundry soap with polihu 0f our warranted good 5Oe Tea, or you can have a well made meat roaster or a sled (known as a pig sticker) with one pound. of our famous Baking PoW- der 45c per pound.
