The Philosophy Of Brother Ostrich

THERE'S something almost human about the
a ostrich. Rather than face the unusual he bures
his head in the sand thus exposing himself, rather
recklessy, to the whms of happenstance.
Isn't that just like the chap who ducks under the
sheets the minute the furniture creaks downstairs?
Lots of folks shut their eyes when they need them
most. In the matter of buying something for in
stance-the important business of spending hard
earned dollars
Who gets the most for his money? The man who
buys blindy-or the fellow who reads advertising
and discovers just where he can buy what he wants
at the best possible price?
Who is the most economical housekeeper? The wo
man who buys haphazard, the one who daily reads
our advertising columns and puts her household pur-
chasing on business basis?
There's no denying the great value of advertising
to those who read it. 1t protects you against fraud
and lnferorty. 1t tells you what is new and good
making you wise buyer. 1t saves you money BY
pointing out for your consideration only the best pro-
ducts and the best place to buy them.
Don't be an ostrich.

on strike, effective Saturday morning,

ployees was expected to join in the

A CQUITTAL of Governor Small of
Illinois on the charge of conspir-
ing TO defraud the state was no sur
prise to those who had watched the
progress of the trial and observed the
attitude of the jury. The latter held
that the prosecution failed to trace to
the governor any of the misappropri-
ated funds. A sad sequel was the
sudden death of the governors wife,
who suffered a stroke of apoplexy dur
ing the impromptu celebration at their
home in Kankakee. Sympathy for Mr..
Small in his bereavement was general
and genuine, but unfortunately a lot
of ghouls tried to make political cap
ital out of his great loss.
