The other day we were talking about economizing and I asked Jeb what he could least afioid to be without on his farm. Like a shot he an* 6wered, 'My telephoneT It's a time and money saver too often, Jeb said, for him to be without fc And Jeb's right! It's cheaper to have a telephone than to be without one. Experience proves that." Before the recent Presidential election there were more corrugated brows on Broadway than there were movie patrons or auction sales of cut-glass diamond rings and brass watchep. Yes, everybody's forehead looked as If the champion knot-tier of the navy had been working on it, and they tell me it was the same right through from the Atlantic to the Pacific. You might start to talk football or college humor with some citizen, and for a moment the worried look would leave his face. But then he'd g6 right back to saving the country. 1 just wonder whether this broad land of ours knows how many times it was saved during the campaign. There was scarcely a citizen who was not willing to rescue the United States, and the North American continent in general,if it took his last vocal chord. Some of them put in a lot of valuable' talking time rescuing South America" and the European nations. Everybody was confident he had the only course which wpuld bring the ship of state safely through the storm. He was to be sure, also wearing his life preserver, just in case. There sure Was a lot of worrying going ofl. \ ' •:-:;3CWofcabiy •&!! ;fa|" goirif • onr~ hilt It's tiifferent. "Nobody is worrying about the Country any . more. Each voter figures that he has' done his patriotic duty, and, if there Is any further worrying to be done cohcernlng our fair land, let Franklin Roosevelt do It. Isn't that what he was put in for? Snre it was. Just try to get some friend or acquaintance, someone who was doing the loudest worrying, to corrugate his brow over the country right now. He won't even listen to you. lie is too busy worrying about whether his favorite player was overlooked on the All America, or whether his golf score will be lower in the spring. • • e --- - If you were asked to name the most beautiful woman in New York, you would have a hard job. New York is full of beautiful women, and beauty, as they say, is in the eye of the beholder. Every moonstruck youngster would vote for his own girl. Rut, if you were asked to name this city's handsomest women. It might be easier. The chances are, for example, that most of us would agree on Fannie Hurst as one of the handsomest women of Manhattan. She Is a Junoesque figure, attracting instant attention, no matter how softly she may enter any gathering. - _ • * • < A ktejhhattan business man, who had attended one of those late banquets, started home in his car. The streets at that hour were empty, and he did pretty well. He lives outside the city and his house has a driveway. He made the turn Into that nobly, but when he had circled around to the back yard, all his efforts had made him very tired, so he stopped the car and went to sleep. Rome time later he woke up feeling somewhat refreshed, but not knowing whether he had slept an instant or an hour. Nor did he know exactly where he was. This -perhaps was because It had started to rain nnd the windows were so wet he coukl not see out of them. He started his engine and his windshield wiper. * • • " • In a. moment it became evident that It was a good thing he hadn't slept any longer, for there, close ahead of him, in the glare of his headlights was another car. It seemed plain that he was in traffic. He waited patiently for the car ahead to move, but there it stayed. Finally he blew his horn. Still the car didn't move. Now he really was annoyed, so he put his finger on the horn button and held it there. He held it there for a full minute. Then he heard noises like windows going up and a sound of raised voices. He climbed out to see what was the matter. There were lights In his house and also in those of his near neighbors. The car ahead of him was his wife's coupe, which she apparently had left for him to put in the garage. He has found some difficulty explaining just how everything happened. * # • • Frank Mason recently discovered something concerning a Japanese who works for him that he didn't know before. He wanted to wear a blue •tilt, but found there was a button off the coat. He asked the Japanese Whether he knew how to sew on a button and could do It in a hurry. The | man said he could. In a few moments he brought the coat back. The button was on airtight enough, but It looked a bit startling. The Japanese had lised bright red thread.

He was gone next day to another town, playing "one-night stands." Modern advertising and selling methods are very, very diff erent. Merchants and manufacturers are in business day after day, year after year, at the same address. They need your continued custom. They must tell the story of their merchandise truthfully to keep your confidence. They must offer honest values to insure your satisfaction. And they do--in the advertising pages. ; Read the advertisements. There's no surer, easier #ay to economical buying. They show you what you want at the lowest price and tell you where it may be had. You can go direct to get it or order it delivered. You save time, save money. Read the advertisements --and read them regularly. Guide your buying by your reading ... advertised products are worthy ones. *• A .3.; - £ - '• . I f j< *y ,- "?l • £jii ' v\ .. -1* y A
