An appropriation Of $4,000 will be
spent in producing the Pageant. The
anal production win be o masterpiece
combining the genius Of dramAtiSt,
artist and musician. Although d.
vided into fifteen episodes, the move
ment of the Pageant falls into three
general parts. When the lights slowly
brighten on the first part, a primeval
forest will form the background for
o tribe OF Usage Indians in camp. A
miniature river at the front OF the
stage, representing the Mississippi,
will be the highway by which the
venerable French pioneers, LaSalle,
Marquette, and Joliet, approach. The
founding Of the little settlement of
st. Louis by Pierre Laclede and the
Louisiana Purchase are the culmi-
mating events of the first part.
The second part portrays Missouri's
struggle for statehood, the admission
after years of debate, and the states
participation in the romantic Mexican
and TRYING Civil Wars. This is the
period of struggle. 1t is followed by
the period of the development Of Mis-
souri's natural resources with the
subsequent growth of commerce. The
final phases of the Pageant will par
take of the nature of q festival.
The Pageant is only n Of several
hundred attractions at the Centen-,

4 duentures With
a Purse

| 7 HAVE found a real bargain for the
L lover of pictures Some really beau
tlful Holbein prints that were bought
before the war. and they have soft
ness and meliowness that will delight
the one who finds joy in the rich, beau
tiful tones of good prints for the living
room or library. They are framed in
natural wood frames. which lend a
peculiar charm and distinction. The
surprising part Is that. lovely as the
prints are, and unusual the frames, the
price OF any one Of them is only $5.
There are quite a number of them re-
naming, and | am very anxious to have
you stop in and look at them.
The marmalade jars are like none
have ever before seen. They are the
regular size and shape, but listen
they come in the loveliest colors. One
is pale amber. another a light lavender,
| almost violet, another lemon, another a
queer green blue. And on the top Of
each lid is, well, on one strawberry
so real looking you almost want to
take It off and cat il. Another has an
apple. another peach. and still an
other a blackberry. One Of these jars
would lend most attractive bit Of
color to the table. They are priced at
$1.I5 each.
For the jersey Peter Pan blouse come
collars and cuffs made Of suede. Need
less TO say they are quite smart. and
ever so different from the plain white
collars and cuffs. You can get them
in almost any color. | might especially
mention gray. buff. blue and. yea.

forated border. which gives nice
finish The prize for a set is 81. 60.

DO y0m~ discriminate at the
dining taMe-sor are
you Momghtless?

Inthousands ofshnmes,s "A Tine" is drawn at
the breakfast table. Tea. or coffee is served for
grown-ups and Postum for children. But
some parents do not discriminate. Caffeine and
tannin, the injurious contents of coffee and tea,
seriously retard the development of the delicate
nerve tissues IL children.
Consequently, instead of rich, satisfying
Postum, children are over stimulated by the
drugs IN tea and coffee; and so may grow up
irritable and nervous Any doctor can tell you
that this is a great evil and should be corrected.
Although some parents feel a. certain justiR-
estion for the personal indulgence in coffee, yet
the harm to them may be- equally serious It
may take little while longer for the drugs in
coffee and tea to affect older person. but IN many
cases the nervous system and allied bodily func-
tions will become weakened. The surest way to
avoid such possibilities is quit coffee entirely and
drink Postum instead. The change permits you
TO get sound, restful sleep.
Postum is the well-knovvn, meal-time bever-
age. Like thousands of others you will like it
because, in flavor, it is much like high grade
cofs2e.
Do away with the distiction at the table.
Serve DELICIOUS Postum, piping hot, to all the
family One weeks trial and it is likely that
youu never return to tea and coffee
Postum comes in two forms: Instant Postum I'm dns)
made instantly in the cup by the addition OF boiling water

prefer to make the drink while Is being prepared
