The Maysville Tea and Coffee Com

secure a catchy name which to market

and use it for this blend instead of the
name of Maysville' favorite.
Honey Cup will be packed in a white
bag instead of blue bag, which Will

signed by Thomas M. Royal & Com

they got so little for their money. Their
Finnish thrift, which accompanied their
capacity for hard work, felt defeated. But
it was not without wholesome conse-

more, not so much because of the added
improvements as because of the rising
cost of materials, so the third group,
which had been forming meanwhile from
those unable to get in on the second
