You Would Not Accept Counterfeit
Money, Why Accept Counterfeit
GoodE2

Good money is made by the Govern
ment in which you have implicit faith
and confidence. Good goods are made
by manufacturers who are willing to
stake their regulations on the quality
of the material offered to you through
the medium of their advertisements in
this paper. Counterfeit goods are not
advertised. The reason for it is they
will not bear the close scrutiny to
which genuine advertised goods are
subjected. Counterfeit money pays
more profit to the counterfeiter. Coun-
terfeit goods are offered to you for the
same reason.
Insist on the Genuine-Reject the
Counterfeit.

POINT OF VIEW.

The woman of leisure and unlimited
pocket money can AFFORD to remedy
beauty defects. but the other kind Of
woman will be wise to cultivate what
charms she may possess to the point Of
obscuring defects. That was the plan
Of one Of the most popular girls ever
knew. She was thin in body and plain Of
feature, but she possessed beautiful hands
and feet, which more than compensated
for ner lack OF other beauty.
She took the best possible care OF her
hands and learned to play the piano. in
stead o; spending money and time in
singing lessons, which she preferred.
Her feet were well-shaped and so small
that she was continually finding real bar
gains in shoes because the size she wore
was not common. Her clothing was gen.
orally good and pretty. but attracted no
particular attention. because her hands
and feet were conspicuously pretty.
The girl had a real longing for beauty.
and it is a tribute to her good sense that
she put II into the background and gave
her attention to her two good points.
No amount Of endeavor would have
changed her features. am afraid Or
dinarily every woman has one gift. at

It may be pretty hair. in which case it
