"There will be nothing doing from us

So says a friend of ours named Velvet Joe.
And ho just about hits the nail on the head.
Velvet is made for men who think there's
no smoke like real tobacco. If you are that
sort of man, listen:
Velvet was born in old Kentucky, where
more than one good thing comes from. It was
raised as carefully as any other Kentucky
thoroughbred. But the real secret of Velvet's
friendly qualities is its slow natural ageing in
wooden hogsheads. Ageing in the wood
never hurt anything and least of all, tobacco.
And so we say, Velvet is good tobacco
nothing more or less. It runs second to
'none.

Bayer Company, Who Introduced As

Directions.
The Haver Company, who introduced
Aspirin, tell in their careful directions
in each package of genuine "Ha'yer Tab
lets of Aspirin" that to get best results
one or two glasses of water should be
drank' after taking tablets.
"Hayer Talbcts of Aspirin" to bo
genuine must be marked with the safe
ty "Haver Cross." Then you are get
ting the genuine, world-famous Aspirin,
prescribed by physicians for over eigh
teen years.
Each unbroken "flayer" package con
tains proper directions for Colds, Head
ache, Toothache, Earache, Neuralgia,
Lumbago, Rheumatism, Neuritis, and
Pain generally.
Handy tin boxes of twelve tablets
cost but a few cents. Druggists also
sell larger "Bayer" packages. Aspirin
is the trade mark of Hayer Manufac

time the flames came within 23 feet of
the building housing the challenger.
The island fire department, reinforced
by companies from Westchester and a
cfty tire boat, were handicapped in
fighting the blaze by a snowstorm and
a high wind. Apparatus was stalled in
snow banks an hour and the fire boat
had to buck heavy ice floes before get
ting near enough to throw water on
the flames. Explosions of gasoline
tanks imperilled the fire fighters. The
origin of the fire is not known.
The boats burned were the Irolita
and Queen of Philadelphia, the Mys
tery, a I'-i.Vfoot schooner owned by
William H. Karwell of New York; the
Veona, owned by Mrs. George Luther of
Philadelphia; the Aurora, owned by
Captain John L. Peterson, and three
smaller craft.
The browse and "teel bulls of these
vessels were considerably warped and
the interiors completely burned out.
Falling embers also endangered valu
able yachts stored at the adjoining
shipyards of the Nevins company and
the Woods company.

Maybe you think of this store

That is part of it; but it is the
small part of ur conception of
what we are here for.
Through years of experience we
have found that most men need
help in choosing the things they
wear. They look to us for advice,
and it is always our effort to keep
ourselves well enough posted on

that we can give expert advice.
We are just as anxious to send
