RECIPE FOR IMPROVING
THE BRAIN.

Many people often wish they
had a larger brain-more brains.
But the trouble is not that their
brain is not adequate mot large
enough! The trouble is that
they are not physically able to
utilize the brain facilities which
every rational or ordinary man
possesses. The ordinary human
brain consists of 100000 cells,
Of which never over 100000
are used even by the most bril-
liant, ana the average use of
brain cells is not much over l.
100000. So it is seen that our
gray matter is not really lack
ing in amount, but the power
to utilize 1.-THE physical power

STREET OILING INVESTI-
GATED.

The Minnesota Reference Bur-
eau has just published the re-
suits of an investigation of
street oiling methods in Mime
sofa municipalities. Streets were
oiled in nearly forty villages and
cities in 1916.
One or two applications of oil
a season not only prevents dust
but preserves the streets.
The cost of oiling varies ac-
cording to local conditions. If
much preparation has to be

BY ACTUAL SERVICE-NOT
BY GENERAL APPEARANCE.
If one make Of Range has
stood the test of actual service
for twenty to thirty years and
some other has gone to the
"scrap" heap, under same con-
ditions, N ten to fifteen years,
You, or Anyone Else can figure
out the actual difference in the
value of the two ranges, and
you will find tnat the difference
in first cost, compared to the
service given, is very much in
favor of the long-lived range.
The short-lived Range may
cost anywhere from $25.O0 to
$4,000 according to the weight
Of material, the finish on it, and
the business ability Of the deal
er.
The long lived Range will cost
from $4,000 to $500 without
expensive trimmings.
A kitchen asset that is "al
Range" malleable top and frame
with three walls throughout and
riveted like a boiler and just as
tight, and stays tight for the
life of the Range. A Range that
can not RUST OUT-as all flues
are enameled on inside which
absolutely resists the action of
dampness or water. A Range
that is never subject to lacci-
dents, as the malleable construc-
ton will not break. A Range
that always bakes right n d
gives satisfaction as malleable
frames will not warp and your
oven is always tight and the top
is smooth and level.
A Range that is a surprise the
first time you use it and con-
tinual satisfaction thereafter,
and which is only appreciated
after twenty-five years OF con-
stant use, when you see your
neighbors, who bought some
thing more fancy, using their
third range.
Do you believe there is such
a Range?
What is the name of it?
Where can they be purchased?

Homemade! The high cost of

1. The only incentive to SAVE is PROTECTION to
those dearest to should die protection to
self in old age.
2. If you will deposit with my Company S94.90 each
TEE to pay to your beneficiary $4,000. IN CASH should
you die will $50 per month for period Of 118
months-a total of $4,000
g. On the anniversary date of the policy, nearest
sixtyffth birthday, will pay to you in CASH. every
cent that you have put into the Company amounting to
$685. or PENSION you off for LIFE.
A. Should you desire to have paid up policy in lieu
of receiving the cash, the policy will become FULLY PAID
UP after thirty-seven years for $4,000.
5. Any time after the third year, there are CASH
VALUES to the policy that should anything happen to
you where you need always have place where
you get it.
6. We also go farther and guarantee to waive the
PAYMENT OF ALL PREMIUMS should you at any time
get permanently dsabed-or should you lose your eyes,
hands feet your have to another cent The
Company takes of all the payments for and the
Policy goes on just the same.
l. You know TEN MEN OUT OF 1000 DIE EVERY
YEAR. Now suppose YOU were lined up against wall
sand soldiers each soldier having pointed right at
each mans heart Ten of those loaded and
did not know whether not you looking down the
barrel of loaded and just the shooting about
baby sad "John, if you will deposit S9490 with me,
will guarantee your wife $4,000. Furthermore will
make you this proposition each year when the shooting
takes place from now until you sixtyve old, if
by that time you not shot, will return to you every
cent that you have paid WOULD YOU TAKE ME UP"
8. Now here's all it is Just simply saving less than
$500 month for yourself and for the of the money
do all the rest. Who would you make such contract
payable to?
you have not made provision for such an event and
have not made choice the American National Assurance
