Here's How to Keep Wifey Happy;
Now Try It.
Want to keep wifey happy?
It’s the easiest thing in the world!
And yau DON'T have to buy her
a new hat either.
Here’s the way, prescribed by L. C.
Dillman, a wealthy merchant of Seat
tle, formerly associated with James
J. Hill, who has been married for
eighteen years:
Keep all promises made before and
at the time of marriage.
Divide the newspaper and every
thing else.
Keep a joint bank account.
Go to your club no oftener than
one night a week.
Have no dogs or pets of any kind.
Call her up on the telephone at
least three times a. day.
When away from home write or
telegraph every day.
Take her with you on business and
pleasure trips. Be more polite to her
than to any other woman you meet.
Remember that she likes flowers,
candy and books.
Make it a business to be comfort
able whenever she is happy.
Don’t criticise her dress.
Be a gentleman to all women, but a
husband to only one.
If you have only a dollar you are
not wasting it by spending it on her.
If you have been faithful in all
things, generous, considerate and
loving and still she is dissatisfied -
get a divorce.
Poverty Not Path to Vice.
CAMBRIDGE. Mass., Nov. 14.— j
That prosperity is preferable to in
ordinate wealth as a safe moral con
dition, and that low wages are not re
sponsible for immorality, are some of
the conclusions reached by Dr.
Charles W. Eliot, president emeritus,
of Harvard. In his article, whicn is
entitled "The Churches and Social
Sentiment,” Dr. Eliot says:
"One declaration as to what church
es must stand for exhibits a strong
tendency to attribute moral evils in
the community to poverty. One reads
frequently in the public prints that
the cause of prost-tution is the fail
ure of employers to pay young wo
men what is called a ‘living wage.’
Most churches stand for that defense.
“It seems to me a demoralizing and
degrading doctrine in all its implica
tions. To my thinking, poverty is a
far safer moral condition than inor
dinate wealth.”

For $6.00 we will give you a ticket
entitling you to hospital service and
care for any eight weeks out of the
year from date of your ticket, when
incapacitated by injury or sickness.

To our friends who so
kindly said a few words
in our behalf, and we will
aim to make new friends
by giving good service to
the old ones.
Never before were we
better equipped to do so
than at present.
The increasing cost of
living is a recogized uni
versal condition. The
price of every commodity
which enters into the
everyday life of the peo
ple appears to have ad
vanced.
The one notable excep
tion which we wish to
call to your attention, it
is Electricity. Two reas
ons may be stated for the
resulting decrease in the
cost of electric light to
the consumer: First-bet
terment of central station
machinery and methods.
Second—improvement in
the incandescent lamp.
We have always striv
en to give our customers
the benefit of any in
crease in efficiency, with
the result that you are
getting today three times
as much light for the
same money that you did
ten years ago.
This is made possible
by the use of “Mazda”
lamps wherein you now
get 32-candle power for
the same price that you
formerly paid for sixteen,
and the development of
water powers that were
going to waste until made
to help mankind by the
aid of local and outside
capital. And we feel rea
sonably sure that all fair
minded men will give
that from the states an
ever break with that of
local.
Many people are still using
the carbon owing to the differ
ence in first cost of the two
lamps; but when, you stop to
think that- for 40 cents you can
get a Mazda lamp that will
give you 34-2 candle-power of
light, as contrasted with 16.8
candle-power from a 50 watt
lamp.
OUR SLOGAN:
24 Hours of Daylight with the
Edison Mazda Lamp.
