BETTER BAKED BEANS THAN
CANNED ONES AND ONLY 1Oc
A QUART

The quantity of baked beans we sell
daily would surprise you. But there
is slight wonder, for they are so de-
Hcious and wholesome and we'll cook
ed-and above all so much more reas-
onably priced than the canned beans,
that everyone who tries them, realizes
the advantage in buying baked beans
here.
We select the very choicest quality
of navy beans; wash them thorough
~ and bake them in the true, old
fashioned, Boston style. Large pans
of them brought fresh and piping hot
from the oven each day are certainly
q tempting sight. We only ask you
to try them; that's all Well-filled
pint and quart paper pals sc and 10c.
Besides the beans, the delicatessen
department includes many other fresh
appetizing dishes such as potato salad,
gelatin tomato salad, chicken salad,
sweet, sour and dill pickles, tapioca
pudding, macaroni and cheese, baked
ham. roast beef and pork. meat pie,
bread pudding, potato chips etc.
Don't forget-157 varieties of good
things to eat.

in Topeka said Rev. S. B. Butler,
residing at PIP Elm street, Wichita,
also well known in Topeka.
Continuing Rev. Butler said: For
some time past I have been in very
poor health. The constant strain of
MINISTRY was telling on me. My
stomach seemed to be disordered and
L lacked energy. After hearing of
'TOna Vita and the good it was doing
thousands 1 decided to give it a trial.
1t seemed to relieve me at once.
In all my years of practice I can
truthfully and gladly say it is the
best and has more merits than any
other tonic 1 have ever known of, and
it is adopted for all ages.
Il am very thankful for what it has
done for me and I think 'Tona Vita
should find a place in every family.
This statement is given by me
fully and unsolicited for the benefits
of my numerous friends"
Rev. Butler is only one among the
hundreds who have testified to the
remarkable qualities of 'Tona Vita
and such statements should prove of
unusual interest to people suffering
from these troubles" said one of these
specialists who are introducing this
new tonic.
Continuing this specialist said:
'''Tona Vita will relieve sour stom
ach, out of order stomach and indi-
gestion, as we'll as remove the ner
vOus debilitated condition whether
man or woman. We will continue to
meet all callers at the Arnold Drug
COmpany's Store, 523 Kansas Avenue,
from a. m. to p. m.
Enthusiasm continues to prevail
generally where The new product call
ed ''Tona Vita has been used. The
great amount of good which seems
to have been accomplished is the
cause of considerable excitement by
those who have seen its wonderful
work. Case after case of people who
were comparatively nervous wrecks
and those who have been suffering
from stomach trouble for years have
been reported and the results of
'"rona Vita were said to have been
astonishing in nearly every case.

THIN FOLKS MADE PULMP
Samose Ideal Flesh Builder, says
Druggist StandsfieId.

Thin people are simply suffering from
want of nourishmenti
If you are thin. it is because the food
you eat is not assimilated and passes
through the system without building up
the flesh and tissue as it should.
You can readily get plump and rosy
by using Samose a tissue forming food
which when taken with the meals, i'm
mediately becomes a flesh building and
life giving element in the blood.
Samose builds up the system, puts
flesh on the bones, brings back the glow
of health to the pallid cheek and re-
moves the tired and languid feeling
which is the result of exhaustion and
low vitality. Geo. w. Stansfield is in
PRODUCING Samose to his customers and
recommends 1t highly, he gives the best
proof of his belief that Samose Will do
all that is claimed for il by Offering
to refund the money If it fails to in
crease the weight and restore good
health

At the meeting of the Brotherhood Of
the Central Avenue Christian church
tonight the duties of the different com
mittees on church work Will be ex-
planned to them. The chairman of the
committees follow: J. H. Anderson,
church efficiency; A. D. Brandon,
usher; P. G. Marlatt, fraternal aid; A.
E. Robinson, publicity; w. E. Cowdrey,
membership. There is more to their
duties than a person would imagine.
Church efficiency means the attend
ance and interest in church work and
Mr.. Anderson and his committee must
see that the members do not have the
headache too often on Sundays and II
too many fall asleep, it will be their
duty to find out the cause. Mr.. Bran
don and his committee must study the
art of gracefully ushering in late
Corners. If the late-cOmer needs
shave care should be taken that they
are given a front seat so that as many
as possible may notice their unshaved
condition and also look upon them as a
horrible example of being late. Mr..
Marlatt and his committee have great
responsibility in their benevolent work
such as loaning coal when the gas sup
ply fails and sitting up with sick peo-
pie. They must learn to avoid speak
ing of the fatality of the disease of a
patient who is being visited Mr..
Cowdrey must see that enough sheep
are in the fold to keep up interest, and
Mr.. Robinson must do he usually
does to see that the press is supplied
with church dope"
Seriously by each man in the Brother
hood having a definite work will in
crease the interest in the church work.
1t is by such interest that the remod-
cling and improvement of the church
will be possible.
