STRANGE. ISN'T 1T

A woman sees a hat or bonnet in a
milliner's window. 1t is in the latest
style, so she determines to have that
hat-or one just like 1t.
No use to try to dissuade her-she
wants that kind of a hat! No other
will suit her.
There she displays her will power.
and probably does the same with
everything she buys for herself or her
family. She makes, as ii were, fem
mime declaration of independence"
Is it not surprising, therefore. to find
some few women who still allow their
grocers to choose for them in import
ant matters like food5tuffs?
In spite of the fact that grocers as a
rule have long ago realized the neces-
sity of catering to their customers
rather than their own desires. there
are still few of the other kind left,
who show a marked inclination to per-
suade customers to take what they do
not ask for or desire.
Take Lion Coffee, for instance, the
leader of all package coffees, an estab-
lished favorite for over twenty-five
years in millions of homes. on account
of its absolutely pure and uniform
quality.
Wouldn't you thing it impossible
would oppose such an invincible argu-
ment of merit. by trying to persuade
a customer to buy loose coffee in pref
erence to Lion Coffee?
Loose coffee has no standard quality
nobody can guarantee that it is
even clean.
OF course, really Independent and
Intelligent women know this. and so
do up-to-date grocers, but IL women
were az particular about coffee as
about hats, no kind of grocer could be
without Lien Coffee

Cure for the Gout.

DR.. William Osler in one of his
Baltimore lectures recited a quaint
old cure for the gout-a cure, from
a seventeenth century medical work,
that was designed to show govt a
hopelessness: First pick" said this
odd cure, "a handkerchief from the
pocket of spinster who never wish
ed to wed; second, wash the handker-
chief in an honest miller's pond ;
third, dry it on the hedge Of a person
who never was covetous; fourth, send
it to the shop of a physician who new

a lawyers ink who never cheated a
client; and, sixth, apply it hot to the
gout-tormented part. A speedy cure

Fear makes towards of some and

Every housekeeper should Know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 Ozone full
pound-while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in A-pound pack
ages, and the price is the same. 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you
a 1907. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
