To day, however, a carpeted house Is the raro exception, because people have come to reallz their danger Ir n a sanitary standpoint.

Simple Education Is Need Among Nalioes of Africa IN THE-PATH -OF PROGRESS To study any particular human mechanism properly and diagnose its ills is beyond lhev pow?r of any one man.

Smith A little Polish boy, without telling his parents, changed his name the first day in an American school. He had a fine Poljsh name, but he was in a new world, and he wanted a name that would symbolize his great change. European women, upon coming to America, quickly revolutionize the manner of things they buy for their tables and their homes. An authority has estimated that foreign-born women ask for goods by their advertised names within two weeks after they have begun house keeping in America. They are quick to sense that in the new world the good things are advertised, and that unknown goods in unknown stores are likely to be of unsatisfactory quality .As the European woman quickly learns, American ad vertising is for the buyer's protection. An Advertised Product Bears a Proud Name. It Has a Reputation to Uphold.
