Some persons would be greatly
astonished should they suddenly see
their own faults as plainly as they

to see ourselves not as Others see
us, but as we see others.

What place will be the one to buy
protection BEFORE the fire?
It serves one we'll to note the labe S
and markings of purchases of all
kinds. Within the past few years the
federal government has been very
strict about the labelling of goods. A
package label must now conform to
the contents, and must not ms-state
things. For instance a few years ago
a certain coffee was labeled "detanat
ed'' coffee. Now the label reads Gin
type) "brand" coffee. Quite a proper
ton of the material men are smoking is
not tobacco, at least, not tobacco
enough in it so the manufacturers
dare place the word tobacco" upon
the package. tx. Y. X. Cut Plug" is
the way it may read but you cannot
find the claim even that there is any
tobacco in it. To the close observer ii
is noticed in the past few years that
much "silkalined," "rubberized. p
'leatheroid," ard similar near-ware
is used to attract the eye but deceive
the purchaser. It is well for the
public to know these things and re
member it when purchasing goods
Study the labels and markings in your
purchases.
