Merchandise Sold Under a Money Back Guarantee Must
 Possess Real Merit.

Money talks. The housewife should listen only to the claims of manufacturers who back their assertions with money back guar antee. l have found in my years of Domestic Science work that manufacturers of merltoriouS products employ the y-back-if-notSatiShed policy of merchandising Such manufacturers deserving of the housewives patronage and usually gst IT.
 No matter how good manufacturer may Say his product is -i he lacks courage offer refund of purchase price, buyer satisfied he displays lack of ah his goods In such instances the purchaser all sk-and there is aUay risk when the maker of merchandise refuses stand by his goods with money back guarantee.
 To make this point clear consider the advertising of certain brand of baking powder The producers of this baking powder abolish the uncertainty of buyers getting full moneys worth every sold under clear cut guarantee o money satisfied with bake day results.
 Their advertisements state that their product IS superior-they say that 1t IS unfalEng in resuspure the and in the food and that pro- duces absolutely pure and wholesome bakngs Furthermore they assert that You when you buy and you when you it The phraseis familiar the housewife every doubt will recognize taken from Calumet Baking Powder advertisement But get back my subject
 the importance those printed words lies in the fa that the Calumet Baking Powder Co., put the proof before the housewife with positive bake day results They invite her to buy Calumet money back trial basis They demonstrate dependabiy vk bake day results. They show her actual savings rsaIm money have tested Calumet Baking Powder The conducted far exactng than could be by the housewife and those have proved the truth of the Calumet Baking Powder Co.'S contentious No house wife can afford refuse liberal proposition. All should give Calumet trial-and millions have done That 1t makes good its advertised promises is shown in the fact that housewives who put it continue to use it.

Illinois passenger rates go back to

in Washington by the United States

the Illinois 2.cent fare law could not
be nullified by an order of the inter

II the Supreme court decision Is the
final step in the matter the immediate
effect will be to make good at 100 per

many of them doubtless will never be
presented for payment.
