There nro several absolute necessities,
nnd, fortunately, thoy como cheaply. You
must have paper hearts. They servo many
nttractlio uses, too. Why not n paper tnblo

aro lovely paper sets td bo had nt somo
of tho shops tablecloths and dollies to

for tho lato supper If you havo Ruests for

With tho use of henrt-shaped molds you
can do many bnklnit wonders, (llngerbread

FRESH coffee; and we regularly sell our inimitable blends for very much less than you'd
pay for equal quality elsewhere. Our coffee business is one of continuous sales and small
individual profits.
