From $100 to $150 pays for a
complete life scholarship, in-
cluding books and board, in
Bookkeeping, Shorthand, Tele-
graphy or Business Administra-
tion and Finance in our school.
When one or more of these
courses is finished, we will place
the graduate in a position where
his first two or three months
salary will reimburse him for all
necessary tuition and board paid
for the course. The graduate
seeing that he can now earn
$3-00 where before he could earn
but $1.00 will soon admit that if
he had to borrow every cent of
the money to pay board and
tuition, that it was the best in*

statement that it has. as a hydrocarbon,

and by digestion largely adds to the
fatty tissues of the body.
Why do we eat sugar anyway? Tour
first answer might be: “Because it is
sweet and tastes good.” Of itself the
answer would be correct, but the more
important fact is that the body craves
sugar because it needs It. And when the

road is urging young men to
learn telegraphy. They call on
us for from 12 to 20 men every

With the famous Byrne Sim-
plified Shorthand and Practical
Bookkeeping, and our practical
way of teaching Telegraphy and
Railway Station Work, we give
the student a more thorough
training, in half the time and at
half the usual cost of a course in
other schools teaching other sys-
tems. This is conclusively prov-
en by the indorsements in our
catalogue from those who have
attended other schools and
studied other systems. We con-
clusively prove every atatement
we make, and that is why we
have the largest business train-
ing school in America. Our
catalogue is free for the asking,
and it will give any parent or
just the informa-

up we have to have our sweet food just
the same.
Certainly the makers of that delicious

has itself borne the raise and so you and

pretty, and she is possessed of a store of
love and devotion that seems inexhaust-

dows in the cold days, creating wonder-
ful things out of her sheer white lawn and
foamy laces and baby blue ribbons.
“One day she came out slowly, pushing
a shining new perambulator, from the
depths o! which billowed the wonderful
white things. Such fussing and cooing
and cuddling. The tall young chap she
used 'to wave farewell to from the
front window came back three times
