One Price
'
ur rule is not to ileal with
a store or wholesale house
which has not one price. \\ e
do not mind paying the price
when we are pc :tive that
I- everyone else w:;i have to
d pay the same. A business like
r} thus cannot overcharge and
rl succeed. Someone sooner or
n later will find u t ?nd its
reputation will be -t. ?Ve ar
afraid to buy from those
houses when you "buy at
your own price." where the

Wiilie Knew
The Superintendent of
i the Sunday School was alto *
the village doctor. One Sunday
he was questioning the
scnooi on various important
points. "Willie," he asked a
small boy, "will you tell me
< what we must do in order
to get to heaven?" "We must
die," replied Willie. "Very
true," assented the doctor.
"But tell what we must do
before we die." "We must
get sick," was Willie's unexpected
answer, "and send for
you."

"You know Jim," said the
wife to her husband, looking
in a newspaper. "I am reading
in the paper that 80 per
cent of the men in jails are
unmarried." "That shows,"
answered th?* husband, "that
men had better go to jaii
than to get married."

Castor Oil
Sometimes my dinner tastes
so good
I eat a bit more than I should
And then 1 have to spoil
The flavor of the pies and

And other things my mother
makes
By taking Castor Oil.
Show me the man that makes
that stuff,
I sure would treat that scoundrel
rough?
I'd roll him in the soil;
And while I had him off his
toes,
I'd have my mother hold his j
nose.
And feed him Castor Oil.
