WHY H BEST
OF CHEWS Is
"SPEAR HEAD
Its Rich. Sweet, Mellow Flavor Has
Been Famous for a
Generation
MADE OF CHOICEST RED Burnley

The secret of tobacco satisfaction is
known only to the man who eheacs
plug tobacco. The reason is that a
good chew gets right next to your
taste, while the leaf in plug tobacco is
in a state of fresh, juicy richness that
is not possible in any other form of to-
bacco.
There's no tobacco in the world that
can give you the hearty, wholesome
flavor that you get from a delicious
chew of Spear Head.
Spear Head is made exclusively of
ripe, red Kentucky Burley-the most
rich1y-favored chewing tobacco that
grows. Still more, only the very choic-
est red Burley leaf is used for Spear
Head.
This choice leaf is selected with the
most painstaking care, is stemmed by
hand, is thoroughly washed free of all
foreign matter, and is pressed into
Spear Head plugs so slowly that not a
drop of juice or an atom of the nat
ural flavor escapes.
Try Spear Head, and you'll get a
sweet, mellow, luscious, satisfying chew
that cannot be obtained in any other
tobacco. In 10c cuts, wrapped in wax
paper.

of the old Colonial houses of New
England, we find most interesting
examples of cross-stitch work. Fire
screens, pillow tops, chair seats, and
even quaint pictures, were executed
and it is only in recent years that the
old ideas have been revived.
The lower part of the screen shown
in illustration No. 3 is covered in a
blue bur1ap, studded with large brass
headed nails. The upper portion of the
folds is covered in tan linen and en-
broidered in heavy wool floss in very
interesting Chinese designs. A band
of gold galoon divides the upper and
lower panels.
To those who are interested in the
execution of such embroidery work,
it will be interesting to know that
embroidery frames car be purchased
especially arranged for this kind of
work. They are made so that they
can be adjusted to any size. The
frame is held in place by two stand
ards so that the work is always in a
convenient position and can be raised
or lowered at will.
Many interesting designs car be
worked out for pillow tops. The
coarse woods are used for this work
and are more effective than silk. Lin
en- is perhaps the best material for
such work. However, any plain WOW
en- fabric may be used.
In choosing the co1ors for en-
broidery work avoid the harsh heavy
colors. If brilliant co1ors are used
the contrast is too striking. If the
light colored linens are used for pill
lows, it is advisable to arrange the
covers with buttons along one side
SO that they can be easily removed
and washed. If embroidered pillows
are used in the living room they
should be combined with others in
plain colored fabrics and not decor.

VXTATCH out for waste in circulation. Find out where your

of publicity in a spot, where you re not gong to harvest
the results. fg
The manuE--e3who has his goods on sale from Oska-
loosa tc Thnbuer nn,uent ,Sre how widely a newspaper circulation
i. scattered Whoever reads about his product is near to some store
or other where It is sold-but you have just one store.
Buying advertising circulation is every much like ordering a
steak-if the waiter brings you a porterhouse twice as big as your
digestion can handle, you've paid twice as much as the steak was
worth to you, even if it is worth the price to the restaurant man..
You derive your profit not from the circulation that your adver-
tisement gets, but from circulation that gets people to buy.
If two newspapers offer you their columns and one shows a
distribution almost entirely within the city and in towns that rely
upon your city for buying facilities, your business can digest all of
its influence. If the other has as much circulation, but only one third
of it is in local territory, mere bulk cannot establish its value to you
It's another case of the big steak-you pay for more than you can
digest. That part of its Influence which is concentrated where men
and women can't get your goods after you get their attention, is
sheer waste.
By dividing the number of copies he prints into his line rate, a
publisher may falaciously demonstrate to you that his space is
sold as low as that of his stronger competitors, but if half his circu-
1ation is too far away to bring buyers, his real rate is double what
seems. He is like the butcher who weighs in all the bone and
sinew and fat and charges you IS much for the waste ~ he does for
the meat.

In illustration No. / will be seen
an unusually attractive design for a
breakfast room screen and table rum
ner to be embroidered in cross-stitch.
A light quality of linen is used in a
soft ecru color. The designs are
very simple and in but two colors.
Wool floss should be used for the
work in gray green and a soft plum
color.
The table runners are made in two
strips, which cross in the middle.
The napkins should also be of the
same linen and the decorations should
follow the same character of design
shown in the mats.
The screen is made in three wooden
frames, each measuring twenty-five
inches in width and five feet and six
inches in height. They are held to-
gether with double acting hinges,
which can be purchased for fifteen
cents a pair in almost any hardware
store.
In the small country dining room,
cross-stitch work can be used most
effectively. The wool comes in a large
variety of beautiful co1ors and many
patterns for decorations can be pur-
chased in the shops and stores.

a penny from his pocket and, extend
