SIGNALS FOR HUSBAND
Doormat at Top of Front Steps—The hall has just
been cleaned. Don't you dare to bring in any mud or dirt!
One Upstairs Window Shade Down—My bridge club
is meeting her this afternoon. Sneak in the back way and
put on a clean collar.
Both Upstairs Window Shades Down—The collector
from your tailor is sitting in the front hall with a large
bill. He’s waiting for you, and he is not in good humor.
Rubber Plant in Living Room Window—We cannot
go to the theater tonight, because your rich Aunt Maria is
hehe, and you will have to stay at home and pretend to be
interested in her talk of foreign missions.
Front Door Ajar—The minister is here for tea. Don’t
forget to ask him to say grace.
House Darkened—Cook has left, the furnace fire has
gone out, baby is unusually cross: I was never much in love
with you anyhow, and I have gone back to mother.—Ex.
“AMERICAN SCHU KIN”
Picture, women so mad with Prussian-inspired hate,
that though they wear the red cross of mercy and are sup
posed under the creed to minister unto all without regard
to race or religion, they merely shriek and hoot at a
trainload of wounded men and wave food in the faces of
those without food for days, to tantalize them and you
SOLDIERS.
—Weed in Philadelphia Public Lodger.
have the Germany seen by a corporal of the Princess Pa
tricia’s regiment, who tells his experience in the Saturday |
Evening Post of July 14.
It is not a nice story, but being true, it shows what
our boys are going up against, why America is in the war,
why the world must be rid of this damnable “kultur”
which makes fiends of white-skinned human beings com
pared to which the so-called savages of the world are as
children.
Every man, woman and child should read that ac
count, for before many days those of the American army
going into the first line trenches who are so unfortunate as
to fall into the hands of the Prussians alive, will sulfer like
wise and probably worse.
Instead of “Englander Schwein,” those Prussian har
pies will be shrieking “Americaner Schwein” and “Ver
damt Yanks”
War is hell, alright, but the war by the North and the
South, by the Japanese and Russians, the Italians, French,
English or even the Austrians, compares most favorably
with that made by the Prussian. About the only thing in
his class is the unspeakable Turk, bis faithful and withal
admiring ally. But read it for yourself.
V
Nenana women working in the interest ol the Red
Cross sprung a new one as a money raiser when they asked
all who had books, which they Had read and were through
with, to donate them to a “Red Cross book store," that they
might be sold and the proceeds turned over to the national
fund. ___
SHOES That
Actually Outwear Steel!
“Hip ress” White Rubber
Boots and Shoes are made of
the toughest rubber ever known
—the very same that has earned
for Goodrich 7 ires a reputa
tion for longest wear wherever
tires are used.
That’s why the sole of White
“J ' ress” actually outw ears
It’s the only footwear in the
world that will outwear hobnailed
half-soles.
Wear “Hipress” and you
will have no more repair lills.
Ask your dealer for “1 iipress”
and look for the “Red Line
’round the top”—the mark
that distinguishes “1 Ii press’ ’
from all other rubber footwear.

ACREAGE
Having for sale at a most reason
able price some of the choicest land in
Resurrection Valley I therefore invite
inquiries from those that contem
plate the purchase of any number of
acres. The success with which all of
those who have already bought
acreage in the Ole Martin homestead
are meeting in cultivating these lands
is the best evidence you can secure of
what the soil can do.
