I . i MAN'S WORD More than three hundred years ago, Miguel de Cer vantes said: "An honest man's word is as good as his hond." Advertisers must he honest men, if they would remain advertisers. Their announcements are signed. They must tell the truth in their advertising. For their own protection, as well as yours. What would it profit a man to advertise "Pure- virgin wool suits," only to have you discover they were shoddy? You would soon separate the sheep from the cotton. And you would never deal with that man again. And, further, you would tell all your acquaintances what a skinflint he was. As a matter of business, if not of personal principle, an advertiser must tell the truth in his signed announce ments. That's what makes the advertising columns of ' this paper such reliable guides to honest merchandise. The printed announcements are bonds between you and the advertiser. Read the advertisements. Read them regularly. To be informed on the newest and best in everything. To save hours of shopping. To make the family purse do a bigger, better job. To get goods of known quality at ths most attractive price. You would not plan a motor trip without first con sulting road-maps and guide-books. Is it logical to plan a shopping trip without first consulting the advertise ments? Read the advertisements. Then go to the stores with your mind more than half made up. A Signed Advertisement Is, in Effect, a Sealed Bond between You and the Advertiser 1 'I I 1 1 1 I i 1 I I , . The transit of German reparation coal was an Imporlunt factor In this Inrreuse.

Regular physical examinations, however, would do away with a great percent of our sickness. Through them any health menace is found in its in cipient stages and corrected before it impairs our efficiency.
