Ksrd to The Little Felix's.

We noticed in a paper a few
days ago that Uncle Sam said
there was so very much mail ad-
dressed to Santa Claus. now that
he could not deliver the same, un-
less it was addressed to the exact
street number, and department
for which it was intended. Now
it will be pretty hard for che lit
tile folks to know just where the
things are that they might want
old Santa to bring them, and then
they could not address him. So
if you will write your letters and
send them to the Rutsler office,
we will see that they are properly
delivered. d. not drop them in
the post office. but bring them in
yourselves, and we will print
them for you, so Santa will be
sure to get them.

tuition in Kansas.
tits the general opinion that if

struction of bui ldings and pur.

We saved them 35 gallons Of

what that means. Go buy Devoe.

from, which will about paw the
expenses OF keeping up the plant
for the time being.
