but he declined the place.
I4arse Anderson was taken from So
ciaI life in Washington and raised to
the diplomatic corps. He was a lavish
entertainer and has his supporters for
the post at Paris.

FROM FAR AND NEAR

Last week a we'll looking man
and his wife came into the bakery and
asked for the proprietors- on being
introduced to one member of the firm
they explained that they were resi-
dents of a certain Kansas town some
one hundred miles to the west and
that they had been over to Kansas
City, on one of their more OF less per
iodicaI trips; that on returning, had
suddenly decided as their train was
approaching Topeka. that they would
stop and see the Ideal Bakery and IN
cidental1y get some needed lunch
The lady. a Mrs. B said: so this
is the Ideal Bakery we've heard so
much about? Isn't is just dandy? I've
been reading your Menu, nearly
every time it appears for long time,
and many d time I've hungered for
some of the good things to eat you tell
about. We have no good bakery in
our town so it's a real treat for me to
get to one"
Then she commenced selecting TINS
and that for her train luncheon and
went away with a great basket brin-
ming with things she found that ap-
pealed to her.
This bakery is right at your very
door, comparatively. You can get
these things by merely coming few
blocks for them; things to eat that
this lady made a special stopover to
get.

LET MEN SLUMBER
Preacher Doesn't Object to snoring in
Church

Cambridge. Mass, Jan. 16.-Sleep-
ing men will find welcome at the
Union Congregational church here, ac-
cording to an announcement by the
pastor, the Rev. DR.. Allan Stockdale-
DR.. Stockdale heard recently that
many men were unwilling to attend
church services because of the fear
that they will disgrace themselves by
going TO sleep. This is his reply:
Let them come here. They may go
to sleep if they want to- They will
not worry me at all; on the other
hand, sIeepers often cause me pleasure.
The sleeping man can't find anything
to complain about in my sermon or
write indignant letter to me after
ward.
There are many reasons why men
go to sleep Many of them have been
hustling during the week and when
they come into a warm church and
restfuI pews they can not avoid sleep
ing. Heavy air and heavy. sermons are
also responsible. The music is sooth-
ing too. Let the men fall asleep The
rest will do him as much good as the
sermon. perhaps.
