SOMETHING TO
THINK ABOUT
By F. A. WALKER
fer.*on \\as a Virginian.
The first words that should be
taught a child are "Please" and
"Thank you." They should become a
habit and a pleasant cusforn. "Please"
has won many a favor and "Thank
you" has established not h few friends.
It costs so little to ' ie polite that
im can all afford It.
Now—The Hip-Line Fur Coat
It has been many seasons since we I
have enjoyed the chic of the short fur
jacket—but today it is a Parisian
theme of great importance. One hip-
■ line model of mink, with soft, rolling
I collar, is shown with a frock of, pale
I brown crepe; another of gray goat-j
j skin, with Tuxedo front, is worn over
; a rough purple wool crepe in two
! tones.

SORE GlIMS NOW CURABLE
COURTESY, GRATITUDE
TUB two cheapest things In this life
are Courtesy and Gratitude. Per-
haps It is because we are prone to
deviplse things that cost nothing that
we use so little of both these essen-
tials to poiltenets.
How often In your dalljr relation-
ships do you say "Please"? Do yon
sarlt to yojjr wife or to your children?
Do yon use It In talking to your par
♦yits or the other members of your
family* Why n^?
I a business ®ho If for
no othff- reason I coi^k among niy
rarest acquaintances, who has spent
thousands of dollars In time and
money Just saying "Please." He
never writes a letter or directions fo
his employees, he never tends a tele-
gram of Instructions that he does not
make the first word "please."
Perhaps you think the tnen who
work for hint do not appreciate It. F
know th*v do.
You won't be ashamed to smile
again after you use Leto's Pyorrhea
Remedy. This preparation is used
and recommended by leading dentists
and cannot fail to benefit you. Drug-
gists return money if it fails. C.
Erhard & Son.
