I I I r v , f pm . , if, "There Is a Good Time Coming" is an expression used by Sir Walter Scott in "Rob jtoy" and it has always been a favorite saying of the Scotch people. As soon as the Armistice was determined upon, on November 11, 1918, the whole United States took & long stride to bring on the Good Time Coming The decply-to-be-regrettcd differences of our leaders in Washington have left us high and dry on the rocks of uncertainty. The few rich people who can take carp of .'themselves have had to bear the losses of depreciated Liberty Bonds by which the Government got money to win the war. The millions of poor people who wrought and scraped together all the little money they had and took the Liberty Bonds have been the greatest sufferers by having to sell their Bonds to speculators who have made them lose an average of ten per cent of their earnings. The Treasury of the United States must make up these losses by a provision to keep Liberty Bonds at par so that whatever is left in the old world will climb over through its owner for the United States Bonds, the best security in the world. There is a good time coining, and coming soon, if wc stand together and labor to bring it on. Signed Apiil 'o, io jo.

Market) This Curious Picture Shows You One of the Most Interesting Things in the Store Today It is an iceless refrigerator and its operation is rather amazing. Tt is called TIIERMONOR, and is simply a white earthenware crock, very porous, working on a principle that is as old as history itself. The crock is sOaked in water for tlire c minutes and then it becomes a refrigerator for tliree days. We have made some very careful experiments with it to find out how it would keep fruit and meats and milk and it actually does keep them nearly as cool as the average refrigerator does. Set it in the draught of a window and it will attain an especially low temperature. it you want to "rush it to the limit" turn an electric fan on it for a little while. It conies in various sizes for various purposes. The milk bottle Thermonor at $2.75 is a little wonder. It fits over a quart bottle of milk and it keeps it cool and protects it. Model No. 3 having an inside diameter of about 7 inches is $4. Model No. 1, shown in the picture, has an inside space of about 12 inches in each direction. It is $6. Model No. 2, the largest size, is a practical family refrigerator and its weight is only 24 pounds. The price is $7.50. tt ,oks as if tc Thermonor would solve the ico problem of small housekeeping establishments and even in some large ones during the coming summer. (Vonrih floor.
