Might-Be-You and the Fruit of Gold
An Old Story in a New Dress
PART 1L
SOON after that, there was great
excitement in the village. The
king sent out word that the Prince
would give a great ball in the autumn
to celebrate his birthday, and that all
the people of the country who were
able to have the suitable clothes
might attend the feast. But he was
very particular that they should be
suitably dressed. It was rumored that
the Prince wguld choose a wife.
Dear, little Might-Be-You did so wish
that she could go, Her stepmother
and sisters talked of nothing but the
ball, and kept her busier than ever
running errands for needles, threads,
pins, and so forth. One day, the
Prince passed through the street in
his fine carriage. Might-Be-You stood
*th the crowd to see him pass. He
bowed to right and left, and ‘finally
he looked straight at the little maiden
and smiled. Might-Be-You had a
s queer feeling of something that she
was trying to remember, something
that she liked very much.
“That night, she had a strange
dream. She thought it was a dream,
but she never quite knew. She sat by
the big kitchen chimney with only
See-in-the-Dark, the big, black cat,
for her companion. Suddenly, See
in-the-Dark jumped on the table and
knocked over the candle, and a broad
beam of moonlight flooded the room.
Down the moonbeam path glided a
little old woman. She had on a dark
blue cloak over a dress that was made
with a very full quilted petticoat of
brown satin, and a very full over
draperv of green, brocaded in all
sorts of bright-colored fruits and veg
etables, intermingled in the queerest,

Ahways Tell a Chalmers
- By Its Uninterrupted
| Lase of Action
WHETHER
~you have
ever driven a present day
Chalmers or not there is
one thing about it you
cannot help but observe:
its uninterrupted ease of
action.
Drive alongside of one
- in trafhc or follow one in
a country road and you
will note a silence, a
smoothness, an ease, an
effortless action that will
command your attention.
This high efficiency in
a Chalmers is due to a
lack of vibration.
The crank shatft,
piston, and connecti
rods are balanced, b:tlfi
in motion and static, to
the fraction of an ounce.

richest fashion. You never would
have thought such a mixture would
be pretty, but it was. She wore a
tall, pointed hat of blue on the brim
of which were gray flowers from
snowdrop to aster. Her hair was
white as snow, her skin pink as a rose,
her eyes—Well, Might-Be-You could
not tell whether they were blue, or
green, or black, but they had little
flashes of light in them that hung
there just dancing and quivering like
the light.in a drop of rain among
green grasses.
“ ‘Might-Be-You,’ said the little old
woman in a sort of bird-like chirping
voice, ‘l'm your fairy god-mother.
You didn’t know you had one. Did
you?’
“‘No! said Might-Be-You. “But
I'm glad. How beautiful and strange
you are! What's your name, God
mother?’
“‘I have a great many names, dear
child. Many, many years ago they
called me Mother Ceres. Some people
call me, to-day, Mother Sow and
Reau. I'm very much pleased with
you, because you work so hard and
are so kind and cheerful. I've sent
you many dreams before.’ :
“Yes,” said Might-Be-You; ‘but
this is the best of all.’
“ “Yes, indeed,’ said the godmother.
‘This is to be the best of all, and the
waking up will be better still. I've
brought you a present. Sow my gift
and you will reap a golden fruit. Take
that to the Fair and you will gain an
other gold coin. Buy you a silken
gown. Fashion it in secret. Go to the
Prince’s ball. I will be always near
you.”

The result is there are
no uneven explosions.
This evenness makes
for high efficiency in the

Also it means not only
better performance but

of Might-Be-You, and, bending ovor,*
pressed a kiss on the closed hand. -~
~ “Might-Be-You woke with a start.
See-in-the-Dark was rubbing. his
warm, _ silky fur against her closed
hand, and in her hand was a package
of seed. That the godmother had
left? Might-Be-You remembered
sleepily that she had bought a pack
age of seed with the little gold piece
that the stranger had left her. She
loved to see her plant creatures grow,
and these seed were of a new and
marvelous kind that come very high.
-“She tumbled sleepily up to bed in
her little attic room.and dreamed all
night of dancing at the Prince’s ball.
The next day she read carefully the
directions on the package of seed.
The directions were just the same as
those followed by every soldier of the
United States School Garden, Army,
and this is what they said:
“‘These seeds delight in warm
weather. The plants have an exten
sive root system which demands a
loose, sandy loam. .
“ ‘This seed should never be plant
ed until the ground is warm and the
danger of frosts is over. Nothing is
gained by early planting and much is
lost. When ready to plant, scrape
away the dry mulch with a hoe and
stir the moist soil a few inches deep.
Insert 3 to 6 seeds an inch or so deep
in the moist earth and pack the soil
lightly with the blade of the hoe.
This prevents the escape of the mois
ture. If the seeds are good and the
soil is moist and warm the plants will
appear in from 3 to 7 days.’

I wonder where the Army is,

To get a dozen eggs,
An’ that lengthy, dumb-bell feller with
The arbitrerry legs!
I wonder where the mule is at

|By. groomin’ with his campaign hat,
An’ what’s become of him?
lAn’ where’s ‘the top’ and Slippry Sam
An’ all the fellers now,
The one that stole the colonel’s jam
An’ him that cooked the chow?
An’ where is Shorty Jones, today,
That sung them lovin’ chants
About the gal so far away
When we was there in France?
Oh, there is scraps of uniforms
Still scattered on the street,
But I never see a buddie’s face
In any that I meet.
I s’pose that Ikey Ipstein’s got
Each feller's last address.
He’d send ’em to me, like as not,

But Ikey was the chap that lent
Some bokoo francs or so,
An’ most of us can’t write to him

This you will realizé = once you
try a Brunswick—that a super-tire
is possible only when the name
certifies that the maker is follows
ing the highest standards.
For tire making is chiefly a mats
ter of standards and policies—cost
plus care. Any maker can build a
good tire if he cares to pay per
fection’s price.
All men know Brunswick stand
ards, for Brunswick products have
been famous for 74 years.
Formulas, fabrics and standards
vary vastly in cost. Reinforce
ments, plies and thickness are a
matter of expense. And these vari
ations affect endurance. It rests
with the maker how far he wishes
to go—how much he can afford
to give.

ents to hold one back,

The Whole Secret of
A Better Tire
Simply a Matter of the Maker’s Policies
THE BANKER
It ien’t often that one reads ples
ant words about bankers—except af
ter they are dead. Politicians are
free to make capital by denouncing
them, and too many of the rest of us
have been all too willing to agree
with the politician.
The fact of the business is, and it
will be easily apparent to every man
who thinks it over for awhile, there
is in on community a man who does
more for that community and takes
as little out of it as the banker. You
go to a lawyer for advice, and even
though you may not act on that ad
vice, he charges you for it. You are
in doubt as to money affairs, maybe
you stand to lose several thousand
dollars in a transaction, and you con
sult a banker. He sits down with you,
gives you freely of the time that is
worth good money to him; he gives
you the benefit of counsel that he has
been years in learning, and you de
part on you way with a mere thank
you. And too often you forget be
fore the end of the week that the
banker did you a favor.
The banker has won the respect of
his community simply by playing
square with the public, and by de
voting all of the time he can pos
sibly spare to making that communi
ty a better and brighter place in
which to live. He stands willing to
sacrifice his time and spend his mon
ey for the townspeople and the rural
residents who could hardly Wg
their business without his advice and
friendship. ' : 75
So, the next time you hear some
cheap politician berating the bankers
—don’t waste your time. Do what
sensible men should do under such
circumstances—turn on your heel
and walk away.—Carroll Free Press.

Miss Towa Barrett spent Sunday
afternoon with Misses Pear! and Sal

We will have Mr. Jones with us
another year. We gladly welcome
him. .

To ascertain what each maker
offers one must analyze and test
some 200 tires—as our laboratories
have done.
Then it is a matter of combining
the best features and building ac
cording to the highest standards.
Once you try a Brunswick you
will understand how we have built
model tires, regardless of factory
expense.
Yet Brunswick Tires cost you the
same as other like-type tires. Our
saving is on selling cost, through
our nation-wide organization.
We realize that you expect more
from Brunswicks, and we assure
you that you get it. ONE Bruns
wick will tell you the story.
And then you’ll want ALL
Brunswicks. No other tire, you'll
agree, gives so much for your
money.
