two mines on the Illinois Onlrnt Ilallroid

Steinray
Steinway work is more
comprehensive than labor
it is the joint effort of
hand, brain and heart a
co-ordination of energies
that cements innumerable
"trifles" into the complete
ness of perfection. No one
thing about a Steinway is
too insignificant to be
done at its best, just as no
great problem of acoustics
or mechanics has ever
been too mountainous for
an exact analysis by the
great Steinway organiza
tion. That is why Stein
ways are in a class to
themselves - and always
breaking paths toward
new goals of musical at
tainment. In mahogany
cases, $550 upward.

taste and look and nourish like the
best homemade bread.

for Bond Bread now, runs at the rate of
over 26,000,000 loaes per year!
Experience litis enabled us to make
Kolb's Bond Bread even finer "Than ever,
so fine that we dare risk this radical

not like Kolb's Bond- Bread better than
any other bread, homemade or otherwise,
we will pay you your money back. You

No bakers whose aim is anything but
the highest quality no bakers who use
other than the purest home ingredients
could offer a double guaranteed such as
that.
Get a loaf of Kolb's Bond Bread today ' you don't think it is the BEST bread you ever ate,
all you need to do is mail us a letter with waxed wrapper from the loaf you bought, and we will
