KEEPING IT UP

The Smiths and the Robinsons had been neighbours for years, and there was a state of perpetual war between them. The trouble originally started when the Smiths’ cat caught some of the Robinsons’ young chickens.

From that moment there was a never-ending bombardment of insults, in which the wives as well as the husbands joined.

One day Mr. Smith phoned, saying: Don’t worry any more, Mr. Robinson, my old eat died this morn-

“Oh,” said Robinson, “I didn’t even know Mrs. Smith was ill.”

A recent big sweepstake prizewinner bought a big place in the country and determined to devote himself to rustic pursuits. To a friend he confided some of his ideas.

Just a “ MOTOR CAR”! You have never seen a nameless motor car offered for sale. You would not consider its purchase no matter what its price. Yet every day you are offered merchandise that has no more sponsorship than an unknown, unnamed car. A radio set which is represented as "just as good as the advertised makes. .~ r Shoes and clothing of plausible appearance but unknown origin. . . . Foods and cosmetics with new and strange labels. It is important in small purchases just as in buying a motor car to know that the manufacturer stands behind what he has made. When he puts his name and trade-mark on the goods and advertises them for your attention you can depend on getting worth for your money. No manufacturer can afford to advertise goods of questionable value. IT PAYS TO BUY ADVERTISED GOODS
