He Will Be Happy
IF HE GETS A BROWNIE
Even among the more expensive Christmas gifts for
children, the low-priced Eastman-made Brownie
camera stands out as the most desirable of all.
There is a fascination attached to picture-taking
that makes a youngster yearn for a camera of his
own—make him happy beyond words when he gets
it. But it would be difficult to find a more inter
esting, educational and wholesome pastime for him
then taking pictures.
Make your boy's Christmas a happy one with a
Brownie from this store.

these toys are 15 cents.”

cent store,” protested the customer.
“Veil, I leave it to you,” came the
reply; “how much it is 5 and 10 cents.”

Story With a Moral.
C. C. N. Y. Mercury: Her lips quiv
ered as they approached mine. My
whole frame trembled as I looked in
her eyes. Her body shook with in
tensity as our lips met, and I could
feel my* chest heaving, my chin vi
borating and my body shuddering as
I held her to me.
The moral of all this is: Never kiss
them in a Ford with the motor going.
