pilot READERS APPRECIATE
GREAT DICTIONARY OFFER.
Demand for Books Eyhausts First Supply and Second
Instalment Has Just Been Received

Much of it is in tabloid form, to be
sure, but that is what is wanted in
these days of hurry and hustle, and the
groundwork of good education is lost
to you if you fail to take advantage
of this exceptional offer. Think it
over from that viewpoint, Pilot
reader, and then see if you can resist
the impulse.
Remember, this is absolutely the
latest authorized dictionary, contain
ing all of the new words and phrases
that have been added to the English
language since the last dictionary was
published. The title alone, Webster's
New Standard Dictionary, Illustrated,
should remove all doubt as to its
worth-if you have any-and the
further fact that the PILOT vouches
for it should settle all doubt in your
mind. In addition to the regular die
tionary section, including the words
of our language and all about them,
you will find the Treasury of Facts"
one of the most valuable compendi-
ums of learning and information that
you have ever seen. 1t alone IS worth
much more than you are Caying for
the entire /, 200-page volume.
Don't forget what that string on
your finger means. They're going
fast.

CHRISTMAS SEGARS.
Editor Pilot

| Editor Pilot =
| There's many man on this da5
| following Christmas who feels IS pad
as Jonah did that eyentful day when
he swallowed the whale. They are
cast down in spirit and feel out of
joint with the world. The reason
wherefor is that some kindly disposed,
but Observation-Disclosures has
made them presents of boxes of al
legged cigars. There are two things a
woman can't do. She can't throw a
rock at dog, with any degree of ac-
curacy, nor can she select cigar that
man can enjoy. In the eyes of a
woman there are three things which
can't help but please man-pink
neckties, cigars or mere-sham pipe,
the latter made in some plaster of
paris works. It's queer, too, that
women, in selecting box of cigars,
always use the same Judgment they
do in selecting their own apparel-the
more superfiuous tinery the better it
looks to them. A piece of rolled cab
bage with a gilt, pink and blue cor
set around it looks good in their eye.
A box on which is printed some for
eign name such as La Flor de Ropera,
Villa Smoka or San Kerosene appeals
to them. 1t looks good and the
cigars must be good. Some manu-
facturers are frozen to Clara, who
ever she may be. Who is Clara
Maduro or Colorado Clara9 Why
don't Montana Maude get look in
once in while? The fact of the mat
ter is that when manufactured has
selected a Clara and neat, attrac-
tive label, it frequently happens that
he don't have to bother about any
selection of tobacco at all. &
There are three grades of cigars
good, bad and Pike Lake. Cigars are
commonly made of four kinds of
tobacco-near, alleged, pseudo and
quasi.
Smoking is legal arson. The only
social division in this country is the
cigar Above the ten cent grade is
the aristocrat the prosperous bust
ness man and the spendthrift. Be
low is the plain mug who works hard
for his money, and who can en-
joy with content cigar that biteth
like serpent and stingeth like an
adder A man may part with his
home without exciting much COM
ment, but when he falls to smoking
five centers the public knows that
something direful has happened to
him. Offer friend dollar and you
may insult him, but present him with
piece of tarred rope encased in a
Mother Hubbard and gilt sash and he
will thank you.
1t is estimated that the time spent
each day by men in trying to paste the
end of their cigars, SO they won't I'M
wrap themselves, is sufficient for the
st. Paul manufacturers to get the
balance of Wausau'S ornamental
lighting standards shipped here.
The subject of cirgars is vast one,
when sized up from all sides.
With best wishes to yourself and
readers for happy new year, l re-
main
Yours sincerely,
