"But won't warrant it if you do

it than run your finger across the
edge once. or shave with it for a
month. There's nothing like know

All women love flowers, and every woman
who grows them knows that their health
depends on daily care. Not alone are
watrr and sunshine necessary to the health
of the plant Their leaves and roots must
be guarded from the parasites which soon
destroy the flowers beauty and undermine

If woman would care for herself as she
does for her plants she would preserve her

We all promise more than we can

Consider the other side. You may
be unreasonable.
Don't forget that you are not as clev-

Somehow the applause given at anna

relief.
You know how selfish you are? Well,
you can judge from yourself how sell

confdentially, "The facts arc" etc,
how often does he tell the facts?

They're Just another pair Of would

They're the kind that think riding in
a hanson is the real thing, and they

them do it-when business is bad

motto, Get there" is not an clevating

Yet this motto is quoted all over our
