abundance of late vegetables,

This is a goyd world, after all;
and most of-the good people live
in this town.
There are many pleasant truths
but few people manage to con
nect up with them,
We want an airship. We want
to get up among the clouds and
see if we can locate the cost oi
living.
Now is the time to begin pre
paring to plant fall potatoes. If
you can’t get fall seed, 'plant
small potatoes from your early
crop. They do splendidly.
The price of gasoline is not
troubleing us much. It’s the
cost of print paper that’s jerk
ing our hair out by the roots.

Why Not Have
Perfect Lenses?
Improvements and better
ments in glasses are just as
frequent as in anything else.
Until a few years ago all
lenses were flat, because no
one had thought of a better
way to make them.
Today nearly 90 per cent of.
lenses fitted are Toric lenses,
curved to follow the shape of
he eyeball.
Tories give a perfect range of vis
ion from every angle—the edges do
not confuse you when looking from
the corner of the eye.
Let us demonstrate the many ad
vantages of Tories made by us.

Before the Battle of the Wil
derness Gen. Sheridan spent
three weeks at a cost of many
thousand men and horse3 trying
to get information about Lee’s
left. ‘ ‘All that he accomplish
ed,” says a modern commenta
tor, “one aviator could have done
in a morning’s flight.”

Let us try the experiment of
commending that which is good
in our midst instead of finding
fault. We might stimulate a de-
Bire in our own minds to improve
that which is not so good. The
bitterest and most nauseating
pill is rendered pleasant by a lit
tle coating of sugar.
