Why No Other Coffee Has
 a Flavor Like This
Two Secrets Account for It.

When you open package of French Market Coffee, you exclaim "What a wonderful coffee aroma!" As you drink French Market you say ".What truly delightful flavor!"
 There are two coffee secrets back of it all-secrets that have been kept for over a hundred years-the despair of those who have ever tried to initiate French Market quality.
 The first is the old secret blend of famous coffees from the worlds fore- most coffee countries. This famous blend has never been successfully im- itated. oe
 The second is the unique grinding and roasting process which develops that remarkable goodness for which French Market Coffee has been so famous for over century.
 All the blending, roasting and grinding take place on one main floor in a vast courtyard-just as was done at the Old French Market.
 Send 10 cents for 12-cup sample and booklet of the interesting Story of Old French Market. We will also send names of grocers in your town who sell French Market Coffee.

Denver, Col, March 13.-Henry B. Gentry has sold his interest in the Gentry Dog and Pony show, purchased the Sells-Floto circus and is prepar- ing to new delights to America's cir cus-going people.
 For 40 years MT. Gentry has been gathering ideas. When he owned the dog and pony show, that was too small for those ideas to be put into execution. But with the $2,000,000 property of the Sells-Floto circus there is room for every change that MT. Gentry desires to make. And he certainly is making them.
 Incidentally, every rule that made for comfort and cleanliness and courtesy in the dog and pony shows is to be enforced on Sells-Floto. "I intend to make Sells-Floto the big gest. the cleanest and the happiest circus in America, where wonders shall never cease" said MT. Gentry. And circus men who have seen his plans agree that he is accomplishing his object

ZEPPELIN'S BODY
 IN TOMB HE BUILT

Rotterdam, via Londcn, March 12.- The funeral of Count Zeppelin WAS held today at Stuttgart. Many years ago the late inventor erected his own vault in the Prague cemetery at Stutt- gart, and therefore Countess Zeppe- lin declined the offer made by the king of Wurtemburg to give the body a tomb.
