In this unbecoming role, many a
man discovers anew woman, who
la quite a stranger, occupying the
place of the neat and pretty girl he
took to wife.
Often It is as though a girl had
put forth tbe one great effort of
her life to catch a husband and had
no more ambition or energy left with
which to make herself an attractive
chum and smart little business part

liut ns a changeling, a wife may
astonish her husband in quite an
other way.

charms only when she Is severely

We thank our customers, for the patience they have

Since November we have bought 129,093 tons of
