read every word in this advertisement and if you expect to need Roofing this fall, order now. About six weeks ago two of the biggest Roofing manufacturers in the United
j. States began fighting each other. Each one seemed determined to get all the business. Results were that prices were cut lower than ever before known in the
f trade. One of these manufacturers had been making Spotless Rubber Roofing since we began selling it, several years ago. The other company wanted our contract
or all s business. In order to keep our contract, the company we had been buying from agreed to furnish us what we needed until Jannary 1st at prices less than we had ever
oug t it before. We are passing the savi ng along to you in reduced prices. We are also quoting our Sp >tless Special guarant -ed Roofing in this same advertisement.

A VOUR BUSH,
t'oa man, in answer to the ques-
^>ted ho became so successful, re-
I ® following story;
Wh
j I was a lad a party of boys
^OfriL ® "^^re going to pick black-
“Ot ^ t wanted to go with them,
the. ttfraid father would not let
hg I told him what was go-
to once gave me permis-
^htdly ^tth them, and I could
kif^^titaln myself. I rushed into
Hed got a big basket, and
the for a luncheon. I had
on my arm and was just
ih,
. at the gate when my fa-
a tP® back. He took my
' •log^^ ®^^lfl In a very gentle voice:
ho7., ®Ph, what are you going to
'To
The blackberries,” I replied,
^he tjj.^’ 'loseph, I want to tell you
t t*rett this: when you find
t'seej.^ ^®od bush, do not leave it
h(i k better one. The other boys
® will run about picking a
Siri
little here and a little there, wasting
a good deal of time and getting but
few blackberries.’’
I went, and had a capital time.
13ut it was just as my father had
said. No sooner had one found a
good bush than he called all the rest,
and then they left their several
places, and all ran eagerly off to
their new-found treasure. Not con
tent more than a minute or two in
one place, they rambled over the
whole pasture, got very tired, and at
night had very few berries. My fa
ther’s words kept running in my
bars, and ‘T stuck to my bush.”
When 1 had done with one, 1 found
another, and finished that; then I
took another. When night came I
hud a basket full of berries, more
than all the others put together, and
was not half so tired as they w’ere.
I went home happy. But when I en
tered, 1 found my father had been
taken ill. He looked at my basket
full of ripe blackberries and said.
“Well done, Joseph. Was I not
right when 1 told you to ahvays stick
to your bush?”
He died a few days after, and 1
had to make my way in the world as
best 1 could. But my father’s words
sank deep into my mind, and I never
forgot the experience of the black
berry party. ‘T stuck to my bush.”
When 1 had a fair place and was
doing tolerably well, I did not leave
it and spend weeks and months seek
ing one I thought might be a little
better. When other young men said,
“tlome with us, and we will make
a fortune in a few weeks,” 1 shook
my head and ‘‘stuck to my bush.”
Presently my employers offered to
take me into business with them. I
stayed with the old house until the
principals died, and then I had every
th ing 1 wanted. The habit of stick
ing to my business led people to trust
me, and gave me a character, I owe
all 1 have and am to this motto:
“Stick to your bush.”—Selected.
