You- observe him tolerantly, but with no immediate display of interest. You are an established resident, getting along very nicely before he came. But you do not avoid him. For reasons not entirely unselfish you wait for him to reveal himself. Possibly he may add some thing to your social and business life. Possibly he will take a highly respected place in the community. He may even become one of your intimates. It is up to him. So you note his manners, talk with him, and form an opinion. If he comes up to your requirements, you accept him, and often he proves a welcome addition to your group of friends. It is with exactly the same attitude that the intelligent news paper reader regards the advertisements of products new to him. These strangers may add something to his civilized enjoyment. They may contribute to his comfort, safety even his success. In many mays they may prove valuable. Certainly it is wise to give them careful consideration. Read the advertisements in this newspaper. They may be the means of introducing you to products that will take important places in your life. And every dav they will give you informa tion th"t enables you to buy intelligently and make your money go farther. PINT OF LIQUOR E KANSAS CITY, Mo.
