IOOOOOOCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCOOOOOOOOOOO ..u The Dowser Who Flivvered! Mysteriously guided hy the behavior of a willow wand, sometimes a "dowser" the water-wizard tells where to dig- a well which really yields water. Then much ado is made over the feat. But who ever hears similar noise ahout the dry holes, dug when the dowser flivvered? Now and then, possibly, it happens that peopl" buy wisely without heed to advertisements. Hut the chances are against any one having such luck! It does not "just happen" that advertised values are invariably genuine buying opportunities. They must be, because they are openly offered to every one who reads alxuit them. ' Advertised value, must be true value. Else it could not keep on being advertised to a public so keen and critical as this public of ours. READ THE ADVERTISEMENTS TO RE RID OF GUESSWORK! t
