When as a candidate getting ready to bow,
preparatory to taking a solemn vow,
Something rams him and he yells, geel wowl

not quite SO soft as a feather bed
Bumps you hard where you store your bread.

To gurgle, sputter, yell and sneeze.
He gets SO colds about to freezer

Or when he thinks he's got it all,
And moves about with consummate gall,
A something then makes his pride fall2
What causes 1t?
Our goat!
When you are hurt in an accident
And you find that all your moneys spent;
Who furnishes the coin to pay your rent?
What does 1t?
When pain and anguish wiring your brow,
And want and privation seem to grow,
You suddenly sit up: Feeling better nowl'

Why
IS NIIDOD PORC III
NOOON SHADES
Are Needed

You need Vudor Porch Shades to get
the most out of your porch.
To make it spot where you can
rest or work on the hottest days-out-
doors, yet free from the suns glare and
heat
You can do this with Vudor Porch
Shades; you can add to the house an
other room, cool and shady, where you
may enjoy every refreshing breeze, in
secluded comfort
Vudor Porch Shades are very dur
able, and Will last many seasons.
Another good feature about them is
the peculiar fact that those sitting on
the porch can see out, but passersby
cannot see in. In other words, you
have complete privacy, and can use
the porch or veranda the same as an
inside room, with infinitely more COM
fort on hot days.
Nudor Porch Shades are just the
thing for boxing in porches or bal
comics that are to be used as outdoor
sleeping or living apartments.
Vudor Porch Shades are made OF
thin, fiat strips of Linden Wood, close
ly bound by strong Seine Irvine, in a
lock-stitch weave.
They are artistically stained in soft,
pleasing colors. These colors are
