LONGER LIFE
FOR ELASTIC
In Shorts, Soeks, Bros, ate.
How many times have you had
to discard otherwise good gar
ments, because the elastic has
.stretched to uselessness? This
is a needless waste that can be
prevented by using White King
Soap. No other type of wash
day tw-odutt preserves elastic
like White King Soap. So. from
ihe day you buy them, be sure
to wash elasticized socks, petti-
coats, undershirts, girdles and
bras onl in White King Soap.
You !l add months to the life of
garments with White King Soap.

SHOE SALON
Main 4 Bartlett
Something haopened in the store
the other day to convince me
doesn't do any good to give advice.
Each of ut has to learn from bitter
experience.
This young couple came in, and
she asked to see what was new in our
fall fashions. I sensed immediately
they were newly-married because he
didn't know enough to go off in a
corner to sit quietly, the way any
well-trained old married hand would.
Instead, he plunked down beside hei
and started a string of wise-cracks
about women's taste in shoes.
She never said a word, but 1 no
ticed the more sarcastic he became
the more shoes she tried on. I felt
sorry for the guy so, while his wife
was in front of the mirror admirin'
a particularly beautiful pair of shoes,
I said friendly-like, ' Take a tip, tel
low, let up on the needling." I guess
he thought ! was afraid he would
queer my sale. He laughed, and i
wasn't a bit friendly.
Well, he went on teasing. Then he
made this remark about how intell
gent men were about their shoes, how
thev d sooner go barefoot tnan
caught dead in some new-fangled
fashion. That did it. His bride's pretty
blue eyes glared over with ice. Using
iust those icy blue eyes and nodding
her head in approval, she selected
four pairs of shoes, then stood up
He followed suit, pleased as puncn.
He hadn't heard her say a word
about taking any of the shoes, so he
figured he'd won,
When he saw me wrapping the
four boxes, he looked surprise. "No
show the man how intelligent you
are," his wife said with acid sweet
ness. "Show him you can sign your
name to a check for $60.75."
I Right then, that newly-wed hus
! band won my lasting admiration. In
' a single second he graduated from
the ranks of novices to join all us
I professionals he never uttered an
other peep, just timidly drew out his
: checkbook, silently wrote the check.
As they left the store (he was carry
ing the shoes) I heard her say, "You'd
rather go barefoot anyway, wouldn't
