STOP, LOOK AND

Since locating in Pensa-
cola some months ago, we
have in our advertising con-
tinually advised caution
when purchasing foreign
Bonds through the mails, as
it was known to US that a
flood of literature had been
loosed upon the city, de-
scribing inferior issues of
European Bonds in glowing
terms and advising the inn
mediate purchase of Ger
man Marks under an impos-
sible option plan.
That our advice has again
proved sound is shown by
an article in last Tuesdays
paper under the heading Of
Blue sky men promoting a
new scheme" We advise
all of our clients and friends
to read the article, and then
to resolve that Pensacola
First" in business and
everything else is a pretty
good motto.
Our guarantee goes behind every
Bond we sell as TO It's genuineness.

intended deception of his father. Once
married to Becky his father would
surely eapitulate to her charms and
forgive the trick played upon him.
IF father approves of your sister.
Wen elope. How about 1t, dear? And
Becky whispered YES" as would have
most any girl held close In the arms
Of nice youth like Jerry.
With characteristic energy Jerry
put In motion at once the wheels of
his plan. Told his father he was en-
gagged TO one of the Lenox twins and
invited him out to supper with them
10 meet her. Sure he'd be surprised
at the sort of girl she was.
Bess, under heaven knows what in
ducements from Becky, agreed to
help matters along, and did her best
to be entertaining. Ably she de-
nounced the evils of modern existence,
punctuating her remarks with per-
tinent illusions to ancient civilizations,
theories Of Kant, and slum conditions
abroad. Jerry's father sat as one alb
sorbed and when Jerry finally led her
away to a play ,lOwn in the village, he
gazed after them with an expression
In his eyes which would vaguely have

In his arms. "Oh, jerry" she moaned,
i've spent the most awful day. I've
had nothing to do but think how we
weren't being fair to your father, and
he Is just right about not wanting you
to marry a flyaway creature like me,
and I'm sick of this jazzy life, any
how. I'm going to settle down and
oh, you didn't turn around and fall in
love with Bess?"
"Why, my little sweetheart" !" Jerry
drew her close. "Your sister is a fine
girl, and all that, but as for loving her
instead Of you! AS for father-weu
tell him all about it and take the con-

But when Jerry reached home he
got the surprise of his life.
Jerry, my boy" said his father, T

It? Couldn't you have picked out a
happy medium?"'
And Jerry, laughing, settled down to |
explain that he had.
