Old George Bennett, who had been a
local character for years, was found
dead this morning in wretched house
where he lived alone.
He had long been separated from his
wife, and she had made him good
deal of trouble, owing to some flaw in
her settlement. She lived In Ohio with
their only daughter and every little
while appeared here and started new
suit Of some kind against him.
And In addition she made the most
terrible charges against him, which the
neighbors repeated, though they them
selves knew nothing against the man.
George Bennett has never been a
burden to any one. Somehow he has
managed to get along. frequently met
him hobbling to and from the shop
where he worked at his trade. in
quired among his associates and they
all spoke well Of him. They gave him
work when he was able to do 1t and
said he was good workman.
For two or three years he had been
aging rapidly and occasionally had been
iii. His wife died year ago, and old
George had had peace since then, but
with 1t he had illness, old age and pow
erty.
He did not want for anything during
his last illness. Six months ago his
daughter, who lives in Ohio, came to
see him.

SPRINCTIME

Every true Nature lover can remem-
Der his first experience in all of Ma
lures brightest manifestations. The
ornithologist begins to love birds from
his earliest childhood; he will remem-
Der his first eagle, his first whippoor-
will, his first white-throat Sparrow's
song or meadowlark as well as his
first party with ice cream or the first
Halloween when he rang peoples door,
bells or the first time he thought he
fell in love-
And every Spring there comes back
to me my earliest recollection of the
chorus of birds voices and the luscious
way that became attentive to 1t and
familiar with it. Listening to that
chorus now, just at this season, the
whole scene comes back to me with
laughable vividneSs. And here's the
secret:
I did my first ornithological work in
church!
MY protest that I did not want to
90 to Sunday school ended in my be-
ing taken to church-where nobody
got any prizes and was the only child
and had to sit very still. am not sure
that was taken to church every Sun
day. Looking back on 1t now, 1t seems
quite certain that we only went on
beautiful Spring mornings, just when
it would have been incest to be play
ing outside. But this I know-that
heard no human creature sernonizing
from the pulpit, but only the sound of
bird voices through the newly opened
church windows.

Bond Bread brought about two big changes
in the business of bread selling.
First, Bond Bread upset things by making
good promise to housewives to use only the
purest and finest materials.
I've sold Bond since it came into this
market. have never had a customer
question the bond of purity printed on the
wrapper of each loaf. Keeping that pledge
to the housewives, Bond Bakers got others
to thinking that purity in bread was mighty
important.
Secondly, Bond Bakers fresh-from-the-
oven delivery helped grocers overcome the
housewives feeling against 'store bread"
When women learned that fresh bread
was to be had SO easily, they changed their
ideas about home-baking, with it's worries
and many upsets.
AS grocer who believes in real service to
customers, appreciate what these things
have meant to me and my customers. But
these are only two reasons why I recon-
mend Bond Bread
The big reason is that know customers
will like it.
