much enjoyed.

dent Of tho company, is too hns Will

and considerate treatment, and the Gus
toner gets it--that's all there ii to the
transaction.
Bearing in mind these things Il is no
wonder that the February Profit-Shsr-
ing Sale is already going over the top.

is looking for, not profits on the in

 What would we do with race of icily perfect creatures whom We could no longer scold or nag or tend?
 You know perfectly well that look ing after Jim, much as you growl about it, is the best little thing you do. and the day when Jim needs no looking after and tending. and gentle br ow- beating will be indeed dark day for you.
 And somehow Jim, icily perfect, would probably be Jim that was just little less loveable. So that's all right, Mr. Professor. we are perfect- ly satisfied with this rate of travel toward that far off goal of per lection.
