Tendencies Of the Time.

Personal luxury-vulgar, ostentatious,
un@stheticis rampant. Our men wear
diamonds, sapphires, rubies In their
ties, in their sleeve links, in their gold
cigarette cases. in their matchboxes.
Brutal ostentation is near TO being the
good form of today. Our women clothe
themselves with reckless profusion.
Life is murdered in every quarter Of
the globe to provide them with furs,
with feathers, with the hundred and
one gewgaws that have come to be con-
sidered essential-Today.

Narcotic Albertinelli, who lived In
the fourteenth century, was a painter
who spent much time in endeavoring
to produce certain mixtures in oil. He
was not very successful and objected
so much to the criticism he received
that he gave up painting and kept a
tavern, but his name as painter still
lives, while his tavern keeping record
has passed away.

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 Cofecs famous.
This blending is delicate process,
for no two lots can be blended in
like proportions to produce tho
same results. y After this blending
they are aged and cured BY our
special process, which insurcs the
consumer against harmful effects
which follow excessive use Of the
