“If you want to get a favor done
By some obliging friend
And want a promise safe and sure,
On which you may depend,
Don't go to him who always has
Much leizure time to plan,
But if you want your favor done,
Just ask the busy man,
The man with leisure

at the Parthenon, could not quite see

a laughing injunction to avoid being

“Only fancy bim speakin’ so kind-

Women and the Food Supply.
Manufacturers appeal to housewives
by every advertising channel practi
cable to “ask your grocer,” or “send
us the name of your grocer,” for ar
ticles newly put upon the market, it
being a recognized fact that though
grocers are always ready to order
anything asked for, it is not easy to
awaken the housewife’s interest In
anything out of the bedten track of
“staples.” The manufacturers do ap
peal directly to housewives is an ac
knowledgment that they-—housewives
~getually control the food supply
question. How could it be otherwise?
What the housewife is willing to use
the manufacturer supplies; what she
refuses to use finds no market. There
ia the food situation in a nutshell! If
woman would but recognize its whole
significance there would be no more
question of food adulterations, fraud:
ulent methods or inferior products.
The grocer stands ready to command
the out put of the manufacturer; and
the manufacturer stands ready to
meet all demands lald upon him;
“my lady's” apathy alone stands In
the way of perfect living. Ella Mer.

vivid symbol whereby he now impressed
this prediction, produced in the minds of
the Christian disciples a deep conviction
