Butter and Oieo.

William Barclay Parsons, the engi
neering expert, was talking in Phil
adelphia about the various food adul
terations that from time to time crop
up in the most unexpected places.

joke.
There was a man in a restaurant
who called a waiter to him and said ::
Waiter, look here Isn't this a
cows hair in my butter?'
THE waiter took up the butter. ex-
amined the hair. and then replaced
the plate before his patron again with
rod of satisfaction.
"'Yes, si!, he said, that's a genuine
cows hair. We always serve them
with our butter, sir, to show that it
amt oleo'"

Every housekeeper should know
that il they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they will
save not only time, because it never

Starches are put up in 3-4-pound pack
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then, again, because Defiance

icals. II your grocer tries to sell you a
1907. package it is because he has
stock on hand which he wishes to
