A special feature of the Ashford
dresser. chlifonier and dressing table
is the gracefully curved outline of the
aprons. the same curve being repeat-

of the bed and suggested in the soft-
ening of the harsh angles at the upper
corner of the mirrors.

My curtains. spread and bolster

While all the little cuentlals add
greatly to the beauty of the room. my
real pride and Joy is the Ashford
suite. the duplicate of which you may

HEN YOU BUY or use a lini-
merit, what do you want—-
action? You want it to work
quickly. don't you? And
you want it to be sure. Well. that is
Just the kind of iinlment I was look-
ing for. for I had slipped on the icy
pavement and wrenched my ankle. so
I went into H. A. Mead's Drug Store.
at 8 North Main street.
Mr. Mead recommended _I\Iead's
Camphorated Household Linlment.
which. he claims, has all the action
that a good liniment can possibly have.
It relieves aches and pains. soreness
and stiffness. quicker than anything
else on the market. It works wonders
with stiff cords. joints. muscles. limbs.
wrists. lumbago. colds in the chest
and pains between the shoulders. It
is rubbed in easily. has no oflensive
odor and each bottle contains a liber-
al supply.
I purchased a bottle and. after the
first application. my ankle regained
its former strength. Every home
should have a bottle of liniment on
hand. not any kind of liniment. but
Head's Camphorated Household Lini-
ment. One bottle and you will never
be without it again.

HIS," SAID CLEVIS. hugging
a worn folio. "contains my

“And, may I ask what

Opening the folio she handed me a
faded picture. "My third grade class

I suppressed a smile for the pho-
tographer had not taken the trouble
to arrange them. and the result was
grotesque, indeed. The tallest girl
was in the front row, while her small-
er school mates tried to get their
faces in over her shoulder.
Clovis handed me another picture.
“This." she said. "is my seven grade.
Soc this girl here. the third one from
the left. she is Edith Duane, who was
the leading soprano with the Chicago
Opra Company last season." Oh. I'm
afraid you can’t make her out. the'

could have had our group pictures

But Rogers a Stevens this morning
made life worth living for me,'for
here I saw that they were selling their

the one that I had in mind and. in

found that while I had paid only

HIS MORNING I met Mrs.
Gilbert hurrying along
Washington street with a
K‘s-I bulky package under her
arm and a smile on her face.
“Good morning, Mrs. Gilbert." I
said. "Why all the good cheer?”
Her smile broadened, “-l have just
been down to Rosenneld Brothers’
Store. at 125 Washington street. and
I got the finest white enamel kettle
any one could wish to buy—dand for.
my dear. almost nothing. You know
they are closing out their odds and

“Really I didn‘t know. but I most

I queried.
Taking a crisp two-dollar bill from
her purse, she bowed mockingly, “Be-
hold. my fair Suzanne. all that stands
between your humble servant and the
for a new pair of shoes—oh, most
kind priestess. tell her what to do."
For an answer I tucked her hand
under my arm and led her down to
Shapiro Brothers' Store, at 1“ Wash-
ington street. Entering. I escorted
her to the rear of the store, where
there was a whole table of shoes
marked from $1 to $1.98.
"Hare. my dour," I said. “1! where
you part company with that two-dol-
lar bill." , «
On this table there Were all kinds
of shoes. high cut, ones. oxfordl.
pumps. ntln. kid and patent leather.
Phyllis' eyes dilated when she aw
them. "Really. Suzanne.” she said.
"I never dreamed you could get such
good looking shoes for such a small
price. I was only fooling when I said
I wanted to; get a pair for 82. but I
am glad you brought me here. Aren't
those satin pumps wonderful for the
money? I am going to take them.
