STORY OF NARcISsuS.

The daffodils and the jonquils all be-
long to the narcissus family and are
among the first flowers to bloom in our
gardens in the springtime.
These, of course, | bought of a man
who sells flowers. They were raised in
a dollhouse.
Daffodils do not grow wild in this
country, though in some parts of south
ern Europe they do.
The name narcissus was given to the
flowers by the Greeks.
They had a story about them which
you may like to hear.
Long ago, the Greeks story ran,
there was a handsome lad named Mar
cissus. So beautiful was he that every
one who saw admired him.
Most of his time was spent In wan
dering about the woods and fields
alone. One day he went to the woods
to hunt. Tired and thirsty near the
middle of the day, he looked about for
a place to get a drink.
Deep in the forest be found a beau
tiful clear, deep pool. 1t was shaded
by tall green trees, and the violets that
grew by the water were the most love
ly and fragrant of their kind.
Narcissus knelt to drink from the
pool, and 10, just beneath his own face
looked up another, a face which he
thought the most attractive he had
ever seen.
There were no mirrors in those days
ave the polished silver ones that be-
longed to kings or the rich. The sim
pie country youth did not know that it
was his OWL face that he saw looking
up at him out of the water.
Narcissus leaned down and the face
in the water seemed to come closer, but
though he dipped his in the pool he
could not touch the other.
The FOOLISH boy was happy, for he
thought hat what be saw in the water
was the nymph or the fairy guardian
of the pool.
But. though he begged the image to
comesout of the water and talk to him,
of course 1t could make no reply. Day
after day Narcissus came to the pool
to g z at himself In the-TatePs-He
forgot to cat, to drink, to sleep and at
last he faded away and died. But he
did not really die, for from his body
sprang a wonderful flower whose gold
en- head hung over the pool as his head
so often had done. The flower was
called narcissus. and, though I would
not have you believe this story true,
yet it may help you to remember the
name.

CREST DEFEATS
CITY

The effort to change the Wildwood
Crest borough government into a city
government was defeated by a vote Of
the people on Tuesday, August 7, 1917,
there being So votes cast against the
question and 26 votes in favor of it.
The movement was started by d. Miles
Rigor who filed a petition with Council
signed by 80 per cent. of the voters ask
ing that the change be made. After
due elaboration Council passed the or
dance providing for the submission Of
the question to a vote of the people.
The main argument used by the advo-
Gates of the change was that the Crest
would have two members on the Coun-
ty Board of Freeholders. The propsi-
ton was opposed on election day by
Baker Brothers.

How National Advertising
~Simplifies Telephone
Ordering
(copyright-Mallory. Mitchell & FAUST

(Copyright-Mallory, Mitchell & FAUST
It is a MATTER OF ECONOMY
for the dealer to handle extensively
advertised brands. Especially is this
so In food products.
Economy of time results from
what we have called CONSUMER
ACCEPTANCE or the willingness
of the consumer to accept adver-
tised products without question. In
as busy a place as the ordinary gro
Gerry store this is a factor of decid-
ed Importance.
A very definite way in which this
principle Of consumer acceptance re-
suits in economy for the grocer is
by increasing the amount of bust
ness done by telephone. In many
groceries which feature advertised
brands, as much as rs per cent or so
per cent of their total business is
done by telephone.
This huge percentage is possible
ONLY because these stores handle
the product which people have come
to know through the advertising.
People can ask for the product by
the brand name-the ADVERTIS-
ED name and know just what they
will receive.
1t is not necessary to 60 to the
store to SEE the article and receive
the salesman's assurance that it is a
quality product.
The consumer already KNOWS
the product through the advertising
and has only to specify the brand
name when orGc- which ear be
done as well NV telerhone as by a
personal visit 10 the store.
Consider the advantage to the
grocer.
1t means that the work of putting
up orders may be distributed more
evenly throughout the day. 1t
means that it is not necessary to
have idle clerks during a large part
of the day in order to have help
enough for the rush hours, which
are always a feature Of the ordinary
grocery store. 1t means that these
rush hours as well as the idle hours
T abolished to a large extent. 1t
means fewer clerks are necessary.
In short, the handling Of adver-
tised brands of food products means
simpliied elIing-flling ORDERS
with well-known and acceptable
merchandise instead of high-pres-
SUR selling.

Advertising
Protects the
Consumer
(copyright-Mallory Mitchell & FAUST

When you buy an advertised
brand of any food product you are
protected against under weight,
short measure, misrepresentation
and over-charge.
For the manufacturer has,
through advertising, standardized
his product. Every package is the
same in size, weight, quality and
price as every other package bear
ing hal label.
You are thus protected against
the practices of unscrupulous deal
ers, for advertised goods are stand
ard. They are the same wherever
they are found, in the big store or
the little store, the downtown store
or the suburban store, the city store
or the country store.
By placing his trademark or
brand name on the package, the
manufacturer Identifies his product
and thus assumes responsibility for
the quality and for correct weight
and measure. By so doing he stakes
his reputation upon the product and
therefore MUST give satisfaction
with every package.
You get STANDARD VALUE
when you buy STANDARD AID
VERTISED GOODS.

Trailing arbutus. or the may1ower,
Is to the northeastern part of North
America the true harbinger of spring.
In the pine woods of the north 1t
makes its fight against the cold wealth
er and wins. Through the long, bitter
winter its leaves stay green, and its
dainty little flower blossoms out in the
coolest days of spring. OF all the flow
ers of the wildwood trailing arbubtus
Is one of the widest. 1t grows in pro-
fusion, carpeting the cool glades, its
faint perfume sweetening the forest.
But when taken to a garden it sickens
and dies.

The Advertised
Trade Mark Enables
You to Select
tcopyright-MalIory, Mitchell & Faus

(Copyright-Mallory, Mitchell & FausD
When you buy a pair of hosiery,
or a cake of soap, or a pail of lard
which you like, you want to be able
to buy another like it.
On the other hand, if you buy an
article that proves unsatisfactory,
you want to be able to avoid it
hereafter.
In short, you as a consumer, de-
mand a means of Identification upon
the product you buy 81 that you may
have a means of selection and of
rejection.
This is the function of the trade
mark or brand name. 1t enables
you to recognize individuals, to dis
tinguish between friends and ene-
mics.
The advertising of the trademark
SUMMARIZES the product. By
creating a demand for the product,
it makes production possible on a
large scale. This means that the
raw materials can be purchased in
large quantities and the prepare
ton of the final product from the
raw material can be done in a uni
form manner.
This insures that goods bearing
the same trademark or brand name
are of uniform quality. Every can
or package is the same.
But when you buy food products,
for example, in the bulk, you have
no suran of uniformity of quail
ty. One barrel or box or can may
be exceptionally good, while the
next may not be fit for use. You
have no means of telling until you
try. You are able to identify a
product as standard only when it is
trade-marked or branded.
In these days of high cost of liv-
ing you can't afford to take any
chances. Always insist on the
STANDARDIZED BRANDS and
be sure of quality and satisfaction.
You can make no mistake in buying
standard, branded, advertised goods,
for when the manufacturer puts the
trademark, the mark of Identified
ton, upon the package, he backs the
product with his name and reputa-
ton. So you r guaranteed against
inferior quality.
GOOD quality and UNIFORM
TY of quality r thus the results
of advertising, while the trademark
on the package enables you to to Sc
lect what you find to be good and
to rejees~w what has proved unsatis-
1Sctory. Your dealer will tell you
ADvER %fRoDUoTs.

Varieties OF Sweet Corn now In
Market

AS in the case of many other vegeta-
bles some desirable features are lack
Ing in our early varieties of sweet corn.
This comes from our plant breeders who
find that all desirable features can sell
dom be secured in one variety. In order
to secure quick maturity size usually
has to be sacrificed. Sometimes quality
is sacrificed also. In one section of New
Jersey hundreds OF acres of corn are
grown for early selling In the big cities
which is no sweeter than the ordinary
field or "fodderu corn. In the "Gold-
en- Bantam" variety we find a kind
that is of the very highest in quality
and extra early. 1t is small in size and
many modern housewives pass it by
not realizing its true worth. In fact
only growers who have a special trade
a grow this corn profitably because
of the Ignorance of the buying public.
The Country Gentleman is another
high quality corn which is neglected
because of its irregular appearance.
When our dealers and consumers real.
ize that appearance and quality are
very different factors in food crops, our
markets will have a higher grade of
prod ucts to distribute. The most i'm
portant development In varieties during
the past fifty years has been the tend
ency to produce goods Of pleasing ap-
pearance. Quality is an improbable
factor to consider from The growers
stand point.
LOSES ITS QUALITY QUICKLY
No vegetable loses its quality so o
after picking as sweet corn. The sugar
changes to starch as soon as the circu-
latiOn ceases. 1t is a product therefore
which should be used as quickly after
picking as possible.
SWEET Corn A VALUABLE FooD
Just as beans and peas contain a high
percentage of protein, the tissue build
ing element, so corn acts as a balance
aud furnishes to the system energy
SotNh6 hotCilui, luCi lOI ucdt anu
fat. Other things being equal the per-
son consuming just the amount of food
needed and that which contains a prop
er proportion of protein aud carbohyd-
rates will remain the healthiest and
live the longest. Green sweet corn con-
tains so per cent. of water and there
need be little fear of its furnishing too
much heat or fat for hot weather. The
system demands a certain amount con-
tinaully. The State Department of Ag-
riculture has recommended the use of
corn to take the place of wheat and
high priced potatoes. Corn is usually
used during cool weather in the form
Of corn meal. The method for drying
sweet corn given here is especially re-
commended at this time. No one
knows how high or how scarce some
articles of food will be this winter.
Many Pennsylvania families dryAas
a barrel of sweet corn each year. AS a
partial security against the contingen-
cies OF next winters food supply IT
would seem to be q most sensible thing
to learn the "knack" and dry some
corn this summer.-New Jersey State
Department of Agriculture.
