A SAVING OF STEPS.

If a telephone would save you a
half dozen trips a day-it usually
saves people from three TO six times
that wouldn't it be an eco
nomical Investment?
A telephone in your house or
place of business costs you less than
10 cents a day. Six trips a day
would cost you not less than ten
cents each, or a total Of 60 cents.
In month this would foot up the
enormous total of $IS counting
Sundays and all. But some busi-
ness men use their phone 100 or
more times a day. They couldn't
do without it.
Well install your phone for you
in a days notice. Our local ex-
change and toll system have all
been overhauled and placed in a
first class condition. We guarantee
good service, prompt courteous at

"DEAR Mrs. PINKEAM:-A while

trial.
Il was certainly glad to find that

time of menstruation l did not have
nearly as serious time as heretofore,
so | continued its use for two months,

Hundred arms where er he goes,
And Il half Il hundred pockets

Numbered but very few,
