(By Associated Press)
Paris, Jan. 14.—The lion cub which
■was adopted as a mascot by the La
fayette squadron of aviators, the first
of tho Americans to come to fight
and die for Prance In the war, now
Is a melancholy spectacle In the
Paris zoological gardens, but tho
beepers refuse to kill him because of
i ho sentiment resulting from his con
nection with the American fighters.
One eye Is missing, much of his lialr
is gone, he seems decrepit with age
and, if met In the desert, his appear
ance would inspire nothing but pity.
The Indignation of some members of
a mciety for prevention of cruelty to
animals has been aroused by his
mournful appearance.
"Why don't you chloroform the poor
old fellow ?" n visitor asked of the
I eadkeeper, the other day.
. "yY? at do y°u mean by 'old fel
low . ra tor ted the keeper. “That
ilon it only four years old. He l s a
victim of the war. If that lion Is
lame It la because ha got rheumatism
in the first-line trenches. One of
his legs was broken when he fell out
of an airplane forty feet from the
ground. He lint his eye from a well-
directed right hand awing of one of
the mechanics whose fur coat he had
stolen and played with a bit behind
the sheds.
“Kill that lion?” he exclaimed.
“Why, he la the symbol of those tall
happy lads In khakl-whose bodies now
Ho aloug the Vesle and M^rse. I will
take him home as a pet flipt."

Consider the egg
There are as many klnda of egga aa
there are of poultry. There are strictly
fresh country eggs, fresh eggs, coun
try eggs, storage eggs—and Just eggs.
Those quoted on this page are select,
number one, strictly fresh country
eggs, every one rigidly inspected, and
packed in a patent carton. Eggs should
be cheaper, because the season of In
creased production ls welt under way.

Evaporated Milk
at half
No article is cheap at any price, un
less the quality is good, So when we
reccriimend a certain brand of goods,
yon can be sure that we are satisfied
of its quality. Take Plantation Evap
orated Milk, for Instance, offered In
this advertisement at Just about half
of what yon pay for other branda that
are no better. At thla price, you can
afford to buy a case, for here la a
splendid grade of mIlk at lesa than
you ever paid before.

A handy dessert
One of the thoat convenient aa well
as dellcloua desserts are the luacloua
California canned peaches, which are
being quoted here at actual wholesale
cost. They dre pot up by the highest
class packer*/ who use only the larg
est yellow cling variety, packed In
heavy syrup. These peaches are
peeled, and are ready to serve.

An excellent
shortening
Is Cottonbloom, the vegetable com
pound that so many people prefer to
lard. A year ago this was selling for
42.09, so yon can see what a really
close price we are making at fl.lt.

Do you know
real butter?
There la some very clever substitute*
now being made for creamery butter,
and those who prefer It are cutting
their butter bills in two. Don’t be too
sure that you can tell the difference,
eitner, for wlfey might accept your
challenge and have you eating Purity
Nut Butterlne for months before you
become aware ot It. It’s made ot
cocoanut oil, and la guaranteed abso-
lu.fly free of all animal fata.

The most
economical
meat that you can possibly obtain la
that put out by the government, and
every ounce ot It is good. Take the
Imcon tor Instance; when properly
slic’d. It is really excellent, and when
you consider the difference in cost,
you will be more than content. We
bought 33 carloads of these meats,
and we do net believe the* are being
sold as cheaply anywhere else In the
United States.
