FAMOUS OLD ENGLISH "PUBS”
GOT OVER THE DIFFICULTY
Houaea of Entertainment That Have
Bean Popular In the Little
Isle for Centuries.

of the Navy.
If the prohibitionists get their way,
and close all the pubs In town and
country, some long histories will reach
a sudden close, remarks a writer in
London Answers, It Is a toss up which
Is the oldest publle house in England.
The Trip to Jerusalem, at Nottingham
claims to be. It has perhaps survived
because It Is hewn out of the rock be­
low the castle. If a name Is any guide.
It apparently commemorates the Cru­
sades, and Richard the Lion Heart Is
said to have drank ale there in 1189.
That seems old enough for anything.
Still, there Is The Fighting Cocks, at
St Albans, which can assuredly point
hack to 12fiO. Prior to that, tt was the
Monk's Fishing House. It Is octagonal
In shajH-, and Its ceilings are not six
feet high. Altogether a notable old
pub.
Nobody ought to go to Gloucester
without seeing the Cathedral first and
the New Inn second. The New Inn Is
one of the oldest Inns in the country,
and one of the most picturesque and
best preserved.
The Seven Stars, at Manchester. Is
another old place, and so is the Rose
and Crown at Bainbridge. In Wensley-
dale. Probably this was the first Rese
and Crown, which refers to the Tudor
Rose, and it has been very extensively
copied, for In the neighborhood of Lon­
don alone, there must be a dozen of
that name.

“I am In difficulty," he said, "and 1

from the American sailors, and there
Is one that especially amused him. It

rules, which seem to be very strict, yet
I really cannot tell the king that I
have not given the medal to the worthy
sailor. You know the kind's kindness
of heart. I am at my wit's ecd. so I
appeal to you."
“It Is easy enough.” I sali "When

Old Uncle Arthur was visiting his

especially to small Bobby oo his com­

Arthur himself was not free of rices
and Bobby certainly hoped that some
day something would give a chance
to retort at his greet uncle. Finally
his chance came.
The family was at the dinner table
when Bobby arrived home from sch-xd.
Being very hungry he rushed stra ght
to the table. The first thing Uncie Ar­
thur did was to give him a long,
«crchltg look, which showed him the
dirty little hands Bobby bad neglected
to wash. “Bobby.” he began imprea-
atveiy. “1 see you've forgotten that old
proverb which says: ’Cleanliness 1»

The family looked embarrassed. But

There are two main reasons—one, the name itself,
Which certifies superfine value—the other, that time
tells the same story.
Thus reputation and performance unite in giving
you all you expect—and more.
Yet Bruns wicks cost no more than like-type tires.
Many motorists would pay more readily, but the
Brunswick idea is to GIVE the utmost, rather than
to GET tbe utmost. And this has been true since 1845.
You can appreciate what Brunswick Standards mean
by trying ONE Brunswick Tire. It will be a reve­
lation. You’ll agree that you could not buy a better,
regardless of price.
And, like other motorists, you’ll decide to have
ALL Brunswicks. Then you’ll know supreme satis­
faction from your tires — longer life, minimum
trouble, lower cost.
