Haker-ized Coffee

The Cash Bazaar takes a very spec
ial pleasure in announcing that we
have secured the agency for Barring
ton Hall, the Baker-ized coffee.
1t is not the present intention
of the Cash Bazar to go inc the
grocery business, but number of
our customers have requested us
to procure this celebrated brand
of coffee for them since it is not
handled by any other store in the
city.
That our negotiations with the
manufacturers for representing then
at this point were successful, is
due in a measure to the fact that
our Mr. F. T. FeuBng was at one
time connected with a large whole
sale grocery firm which handles
harrington Hall in this territory.
Darlington Hall Coffee has
been on the market or ten years
and has been so extensively adyer-
tised that there is no need of our
adding word in praise of its gen
eral excellence.
However, We do wish to mention
these things concerning this coffee:
First, It is blend of the choicest
coffees grown in the world; Sc
The Emmett index. [volume] (Emmett, Idaho) 1893-1925, 1911-12-07

cond, the Baker-ized process which
eliminates all the chaff and dust
and reduces the berries to a fine
uniform granulation, each particle
of which gives up its flavor stimuli
taneously before the tannin has time
to be released, makes it far more
healthful than other brands, and,
third, that one pound will actually
make from 20 to 80 more cups
than a pound of coffee not pre-
pared by this patented process.
A pound of soc or 35c coffee will
not make over 40 to so cups. Bar
rington Hall will make 20 cups of
rich, delicious full strength cot ee.
Thus it is evident that althoug Bar
rington Hall may cost a few more
cents per pound, 1t does not cost
more per cup.
The price of Darlington Hall
is 45c per pound in 1 pound tins,
and S5c per pound tins.
Here's our guarantee: If Barring
ton Hall fails to please you, your
money back without question or
Surprise the folks at dinner to-
morrow with a pot of this delicious
coffee.

Several telephone calls reached the

random. They were taken to the
police station where it developed
that the elder of the two men is de-

from the county hospital, while the
younger was all right mentally but
unable to speak or hear. He had
been sent after the old man who had
made his escape. The old man
