One help toward diving
happily ever afterwards" is to
furnish the new home, or apart
ment, in the best way consistent
with ones resources. When we
buy furniture we have to keep in
mind all kinds of practical re-
quirements and we have to pro-
vide a stock that answers all of
them.
This is almost certain to be
the stock from which the new
bridal home can be furnished to
the best advantage. 1t presents
a variety that satisfies; it en-
braces only furniture of quality
and desirableness, and it offers
furniture of this kind at prices
that could not be lower with
safety.

MAKE Me More Beautiful"
Said a Rose

So reads the legend of the mOss-rOse, when
the angel of the fOwery kingdom heard a
common rose shake itself and wish to be more
beautiful.
The angel then gathered some simple moss
from grassy riyer-bank and spread it around
the rose in bloom as an additional adornment.
Yes, indeed, it is not exactly, but next door
to, crime for anything or anybody not to dress
up to the best to add to the pleasure and
education of each other.
For example, take the case of man sitting
near us one day last week with uncleaned shoes,
soup-spotted necktie, unbrushed clothes and
horribly neglected finger nails. In course of
time he will be complaining of the neglect of
his friends who seem to be willing to forget
every man who fOrgets himself
People as well as places hang out signs of
their own. This Store will be clean and well
dressed every day if nothing else.
