The Country Doctor.

The world owes lot to the coun-
try doctor. His chest may not be
decorated with a Carnegie medal,
wealth seldom comes to him, and his
honors are few, but no man does
more for humanity than the j country
doctor. Always on the alert to an
swer the summons Of the sick, he
makes long drives in the dead of win
ter, battling against the cold and bad
roads to arrive in time to stave off
death, and relive suffering and dis
tress. He has no regular hours; he
knows no holidays; he eats when and
where he can. Often poorly paid,
and not unrarely not paid at all, he
always does his best. ,Unselfsh, and
with the first thought Of others, he
often breaks down and undermines
his own health to pull his patients
through a crisis. Unhonored, un-
wept, and unsung may be said of
him in many cases. And yet who is
deserving Of more honor and more
praise? He ushers US into this
world, eases our pains while we are
here, and makes our final exit as
peaceful as possible. Yes, the world
owes lot to the country doctor

Why 1t Pays to Read the Ads

Why 1t Pays to Read the Ads.
Mrs. Housewife, if you picked up
your favorite family paper this eve
ming and saw new baking powder
advertised, would you try that brand
tomorrow? Hardly! Why? Because
you do not know the brand. How do
you become familiar, then, with most
of your household necessities ?
Through advertising. An article that
you see advertised continuously ap-
peal to you. Your good sense tells
you that it must be right, else it
could not remain on the market. And
what advertising is to an individual
article it is to a business institution.
Advertising draws trade to store.
If that store continues to advertise,
it is satisfying it's customers. No
business can: amount to much without
advertising, nor can advertising do
any business any good unless that
business lives up to it's ADVERTISE
ments. Here then is plainly seen
why it pays to trade. with the con-
tinuous advertisers. H.: ~ -.
