Beware. Madam, test your husband come
home under the Influence of caramels.
Watch him. Mayhap you will find him go
ing to ruin In the nearby candy stores.
When he brings you a box of chocolates
bo on the alert.
The brownish coat of tho supposedly In
nocent chocolate hides many a "bracer."
Itt lllio other husbands, ho eats most of
tho candy he brings home to you, then all
Is lost. It Is time to sound the trumpet of
prohibition.
Lurking under the pretty lid of the
dainty candy box is many1 a wholesome
"Jag."
And so It may como to tho gumdrop cock-
tall nnd tho bon-bon fizz or else tho choco
late high ball or maybe cocoanut punch.
Yes, this Is not Improbable nnd tho

Picture the humiliation of a husband
who In separated from his wife because he
cannot control his mnnla for vanilla kisses.
Will It not bo mortifying when his little
daughter finds him unconscious In the cor
ner candy shop and sweet on everything
but hla wife?
Do you notlco new candy shopi nre crop
ping up all around? Think It over.
Candy eating Is a form of alcoholic dis
sipation nnd there Is such n thing as be
coming overstlmulated on candy. This wns
declared byj Dr. Charles Mutthart In tho
course of nn nddresi at the 17th annual
convention of the Pennsylvania Osteopathic
Association nt Scranton.
He described the process that goes on In

same process that Is carried on In a dis
tillery ' A generous helping of maple syiup on
tho morning griddle cakes or tho munching
of chocolate Is sulllclcnt bracer for the
business man, he said.

OODYEAR Service Sta
tion Dealers everywhere
have the same purpose.
That is to hold your busi
ness, by getting your friendship, by
giving you service.
They will see that you-use tires of
proper size, and provide proper in
flation. They will test wheel-alignment,
and guard you against tire
abuses which you may innocently
inflict.
This chain of Goodyear Service Sta
tion Dealers is a part of Goodyear
policy. '
It is a time and money-saving advan
tage given to you over and above
the extra mileage built into Good
year Tires, which makes them go
farther and last longer, and so cost
you less in the end.

Economy
Doesn't economy rule in the purchase of an article of any kind?
If so, is it not economy to buy your piano direct from the maker? We
know most dealers have their name stenciled on the fall-board and
cast in the plate of the pianos they sell, wishing to impress the pur
chasers that they are the makers. We are the only piano manufac
turers in Philadelphia, with abundance of capital and one of the best
equipped piano factories in the United States.
We do not now, nor did we ever, produce a cheaply constructed
instrument. Our guarantee covers every component part of the piano,
without reserve.
We have been offering $ 1 0,000 for over a quarter of a century
for a better made piano than the Matchless Cunningham, and we are
producing today a Cunningham-made Player-Piano for $450. We
will ship and deliver to your home any piano or player-piano (with
chair, scarf and twelve rolls of music) free within a hundred miles' of
Philadelphia, and make delivery in our own trucks inside of thirty
miles of our city.
We sell our player-pianos for cash, open book account or on terms
as low as two dollars ($2.00) per week, and our upright pianos as low'
as six dollars ($6.00) a month, f
