Misunderstanding.
A man from tlie backwoods of west
ern America visited New York for the
first time and went Into a restaurant
to have dinner. All went well until
the waiter brought him a napkin. The
eyes of the backwoods man flamed,
and pulling a six-shooter from his
pocket he gave the waiter a piece of
his mind. .V
"You take that blamed thing away
at once," he said evenly. "I reckon
I have a handkerchief If I want one,
without having them darned hints
thrown out."
Rula With No Exceptions.
When you meet a wealthy old bach
elor you may be sure that you have at
last encountered a man who has
learned to say no and stick to It
Try a pipeful
or two direct
from the factory
Not that it will be any better than
the Edgeworth you buy in a store, but
we want you to have your first Edge
worth smoke at our expense.
You may repay us by finding that
Edgeworth just suits your taste. And
if it doesn't for there are some few
men to whom Edgeworth is not just
the thing there's no harm done.
i We are glad enough to send free
samples in the same spirit that we'd
hand you our pouch if circumstances
permitted. We wish it were possible
to save you even the little trouble of
writing for Edgeworth.
Edgeworth is a likable smoke. Men
who have tried it and found it to be
the right tobacco for them never
think of smoking other tobaccos.
They'll tell you there are many good
tobaccos and there are. And when
you offer them your pouch with
"stranger" tobacco in it, they may
use up a pipeful just to be friendly.
I But notice how quickly they get
' back to their beloved Edgeworth!
' Day after day Edgeworth fans write
to us. They tell us human little
stories, friendly anecdotes centering
around Edgeworth. Often it is the
number of years they have smoked
Edgeworth that prompted them to
write.
Knowing how hard it is for the aver
age man to write letters, we consider
' these unsolicited
messages the great
est tribute to Edge
worth we could
possibly have
greater even than
theincreasingsales.
It gives the busi
ness of making
tobacco a pleasure-
that runs
through the
whole gamut
from factory ex
ecutive to the
amoker in the backwoods.
If you have never tried Edgeworth,
I let us repeat our offer, "Try a pipeful
or two direct from the factory." All
1 you have to do is to write " Let me try
a pipeful or two" on a postcard, sign
your name and address and send the
postcard to us. The address is Larua
Brother Co., 41 South 21st Street,
Richmond, Va. If you want to add
the name of your tobacco dealer, we'll
make sure that he has Edgeworth in
stock.
To Retail Tobacco Merchants : It

Pennsylvania Roadhouse That Stood
Squarely Between the British
and American Armies.
The advent of national prohibition
sounded the death knell for many
roadhouses scattered throughout the
country districts. The stopping places
of tourists, the Mecca of motorists
and the scenes of many Impromptu
parties, these places for many years
held a corner in the hearts of the
American public that gave them a
place of almost equal Importance with
the circus and the chautauqua. Few,
however, survived long after January
16, 1920, because the main source of
their Income was gone.
One of the most popular roadhouses
within several hundred miles of the
city, for many years a Mecca for prom
inent Philadelphláns on their hikes
and rambles, has to somé extent sur
vived and still opens its doors to thou
sands of tourlste each month. It Is
the old Jeffersonville inn located on
the corner of Egypt road and Ridge
pike, about seven miles from historic
Valley Forge and about two miles
northwest of Norrlstown. It Is better
known to Its friends as Tom Brown
inn, by which name It went for many
years.
Surrounded by spots made famous
because of their connection with
events of the Revolution, itself per
meated with historical associations,
the Inn held the Interest and patronage
of many educated men because of the
stories and data of historical events
so closely connected with the old
building. '
The house was built In 1765 and was
besieged by the British and partially
destroyed ten years later. This site
was in the neutral gróund between
the established lines of both the Brit
ish and American armies, and was
constantly scouted by horsemen of
both armies. The Americans, when at
Valley Forge, had their most easterly
pickets at the Juncture of the two
roads at Jeffersonville. At that time
the Inn was owned by the Thompsons,
who, because of their relationship to
General Thompson and because of
their open hostility to the royal cause,
were objects of animosity to the Brit
ish troops. And because of this the
Inn was fired and partially destroyed.
There Is a blood spot on the second

floor, said to be the result of a skir

many fighters of the Revolutionary

Once More the
Nation Heralds
Its Natal Day
By T. C. HARBAUGH
When Liberty called to a people op
press'd They sprang as one man to the fray;
They carried a banner by Providence
bless'd,
And it waves In Its glory today;
Long a?o on the fields that their valor
had won
Our fathers triumphantly stood
And lifted the emblem that glows In the
sun
And stained Its bright folds with their
blood.
How they stood long ago on the fields
of their fame
Let Trenton and Brandywine tell,
Let Yorktown and Valley Forge echo
each name (
To the tocsin of Liberty's bell;
They sleep where the rivers flow down
to the sea,
Revered by all patriots true;
They rest 'neath the rose and they camp
'neath the tree
The men of the old Buff and Blue.
Who sees not our banner in pride as it
waves
By the winds of America toss'd?
Who drops not a tear on our forefathers'
graves '
When he thinks what our Liberty cost?
We are proud of our land In its lovelight
divine.
Aye, próud of the men of our wars;
The stars In the heavens will never out
shine The beauty of Old Glory's stars.
We hall this bright day on the sea and
the shore
That tells us of Liberty's dawn,
And the old Continentals seem marching
once more
As they did in the days that are gone;
Their fame la eternal, for the fame never
dies
When the cause that is fought for Is
Just;
Look up! see our standard that's set in
the skies.
And honor the brave who are dust
We are ONE in the land that they left
us today.
We are strong on the crest of the sea.
And Liberty rules In her own gentle way;
We are truly the home of the free;
Forever and aye may the happy bells
ring
Till trembles the arch of the sky;
Forever and aye may we gleefully sing
Of the world's only Fourth of July.

WHY SOME MEN GO INSANE
Kind of Office "Help" With Which

Familiar.
The Colorado building boasts the
"dumbest" girl In all Washington, as
serts the Post of that city. She's a
nectarine, a pippin' and a peach. Re
cently her boss, who Is, a very busy,
bellowing sort of man, told her to get
Agriculture on the telephone. She
jumped for a phone directory.
Time wore on. Late afternoon
came. The boss had been engrossed
In matters of grave importance, and
it was nearly 4 :30 before he suddenly
recalled that Annie hadn't reported
on his morning phone call.
"Annie," he thundered, "where's my
Agriculture call?"
"Why, I'm sorry, sir, but It hasn't
got a phone."
"Who hasn't got a phone?"
"Why, Mr. Culture, sir. I looked
through all the C's and all the K's,
sir, and I couldn't find Mr. Agra Cul
ture's name In either list, sir."
Made Bagpipes Useful.
An old adventurer who passed away
in Australia at the age of ninety-four,
was the only man I've known, says a
correspondent, to put bagpipes to a
useful purpose.. After being captured
when the Eureka stockade fell, he
Joined the Victoria police, and was
largely responsible for the capture of
the bushranger ".Tewboy." He was then
appointed second-in-command of an
expedition that set out to find traces
of Leichardt (another bushranger),
and he used to tell that one day the
party was surprised by 200 natives,
with hostile Intent, whereupon one Mc
intosh yelled : "The pipes, Charlie, the
pipes while we retreat." The old ad
venturer played the pipes and the
natives were so mystified that they
stood open-mouthed while the party
marched off.
The Next Best Thing.
Little Willie came home from school

Important Truth
JL O make each part as strong as the rest," was his way oí "building
a wonderful, one-horse chaise that wouldn't wear out till judgment day."
This illustrates a fact that is keeping many doctors busy these days
human bodies, like chaises, break down because some part isn't as
strong as the others.
Very often it's because of ill-balanced food, lacking in some impor
tant element of nutrition. This is especially true of ills developed in
childhood, and carried on through life.
Grape-Nuts, that world-famous, ready-to-eat cereal, brings the plan
of building each part as strong as the rest to serve human need. Grape
Nuts contains all the nutriment of those best of the field grains, wheat
and barley, including the vital mineral elements, and it is a wonderful
food for building and sustaining health and strength.
The delicious flavor and crispness of Grape-Nuts make it a wel
come dish whenever you're hungry.

The 30 x ZlA Goodyear Cross Rib Tire
shown here alongside its companion, the
30 x ZlA Goodyear All -Weather Tread ,
Clincher, is a conspicuous example of
Goodyear value.
The Goodyear Cross Rib has in it the.
same high grade Egyptian cotton fabric
that goes into the All -Weather Tread
Goodyear.
It has a differently designed but long
wearing tread, and it sells for considerably
less money.
In the past five years more than 5,000,000
of these Goodyear Cross Rib Tires have
been sold.
They haye everywhere given remarkable
service.
Their fine performance and known value
have convinced thousands of motorists of
the folly of buying unknown and unguar
