THE KIND THAT LAST
Shades are the only really satisfactory kind they
throw the porch into cool mellow shade without
making it too dark for practical use at the same time
. admitting a free circulation of air. They are dura-
ble. They are not expensive.
OLD HICKORY
Gomes in a large variety of shapes in Chairs Kock-
ers Tables Settees Swings and is perhaps the most
satisfactory Porch Furniture ever designed. We x
have yet to see a piece of it which was not comfort-
- able or a piece which had worn out. The price is
reasonable.

the man who begins to save stops some kind of foolishness. Economy
means giving up something and the wise man usually manages ta give
up that which is had for him. When you begin to save you begin as a
rule to sleep longer to drink and smoke less to waste less time among un-
profitable friends. Think this over today. Think of your own case.
