Snowy Butte Flour
With the sad results achieved from the use of cheaper flour?
The one, the highest triumph of cookery—the most useful of
all the arts; the other, a monument to wasted energy, blasted
hopes and poor judgment. But why continue the compari

exist on inferior flour, redeem yourself by ordering Snowy
Butte flour only in future.

The recent robbery of the Chicago
postoflice and the possibility that the
robbers will dispose of 174,000 worth of
stolen stamps has called attention
afresh to the need of some kind of sub
sidiary currency which can be sent
through the malls. It was never in
tended that stamps be used as money,
yet the enormous growth of the mall
order business has really brought that
result about.
The mall order con
cerns accumulate large quantities of
stamps, and to convert them Into mon
ey often have to sei* at a discount
Thus a “stamp trade" has sprung up
which enables burglars to dispose of
stolen stamps with little danger of de
tection. The next congress will doubt
less be called upon to consider plans
for relieving this situation.

“Why not?”
“Well, take Instances. Know any

Wish I didn't have to know any my

other chaps. If you aren’t afraid of
swallowing a threepenny bit, then fel

came up to me and asked If I did it
and whep I said ’Yes’ he said. ‘Silly
young devil!’ He’s spoken to me again
since then, and he’s a chap who practi
cally never speaks to kids.”
The Interviewer suggested that he

“No; I suppose they don’t I believe
it would be lietter if they did. They
can’t keep It up to that level. They
can’t do the heroic every day. They've
got to get into rows and go short of
money, Just like anybody else, then
they're disappointed. You don’t hear
much about that In the books or from
the Rev. James Dll water, bnt you can
see for yourself that’s how It would be.
Heroism's like a lot of other things. If
you’ve not got it. you don't want it. If
you’ve ever li.nl It, yon can't do without
It. It’s so with smoking. There was a
time when I'd never tried it and didn’t
care to try it.”
The Interviewer felt It his duty to ex
press a pious nope that that time still
existed.
“Look here! I've had half an hour of

Don’t you begin too.
It's Just occasionally when I feel the
need of It. I don’t brag about it as
some boys do. boys that have never

brave days of old! Of course he put

could. If the truth were known, I be
lieve there’s lots of people owe their
ruin to an act of heroism. You’d nev

water talks, but 1 keep my eye» open
and think out things for myself.”
“Surely,” said the Interviewer, “this
Is principally hypothesis. As a matter
of fact”—
•'What’s hypothesis?
And there’s
another thing.
I shouldn’t like my
pure minded and noble example to be
rammed down the thriftts of 11 lot of
other boys that had never done any
