many hours of mischief may thus be
avoided. The price is ten cents.
Let anybody talk to you about the
high cost of things, and one Of the first
things she will mention will be towels.
If you have had to buy any lately, you

is why want to tell you about the
Turkish towels one shop has. They are
plain white, thirty eight inches long,
and are priced at forty cents each.
They are very good quality for that
price, and 1 should strongly advise you
to buy few, even if you do not need
them right away. For from all indi
cations prices are not coming down
very soon.
