I can alvo von an Idea of what It looks
like. It Is n three-quarter length
chain, nnd nhout ono-half Its length Is
composed of blnck ribbon about u quar
ter of an Inch wide. (Tho description
sounds like specifications for building n
submarine, doesn't It?) .The rest of
this unusual chain Is composed of beads.
Tho beads como In blue, green or al
most any color yon would want, aud
arc of clear glass. Prices are $1, $l.i!5
and $1.C0.
The same" shop I told you about that
is having a 20 per cent sale Is having
another special that may Interest you.

fairly clabornto nnd most nttrnctlve de

This looks to me like rock bottom In
Madeira napkin prices.
I do not need to call your nllentlon
to tho mony advantages of the pretty
bluo nnd while .Tapniieso toweling. It
Is always nice, In good taste, is cool
looking and wnshos perfectly. Now,
one shop hns some blue and white strips
about twelve Inches wide, but It Is dif
ferent In design from any I have ever
seen beforo. And. Incidentally, I saw
mc pillows made up with It, and they
are mighty nice. A Mrip containing
ten blocks of the design costs Sl.JiO,
And I should say thnt n block measures
nt least ten or twelve inches In length.
This mntcrlnl Is excellent for table run

strips together and medo u very fetching

T CAN' forgive Mint but 1 haven't
forgotten It yot nnd I won't for a
long time, cither," said tho girl who
had been offended. ,
It It pretty hard to forgh'e some
things In fact It's almost Impossible.
You think you havo forgiven, you
have accepted on apology, perhaps, nnd
ngrccd to put It all down as past his
tory. Hut every timo you think of the par
ticular person wlity has offended you,
that otTcnse looms up bigger than tho
person.
There's a strained feeling In your re
lations ; Micro's something that keeps
you apart and prevents the sympathy
that makes Intercourse easy nnd smooth.
I'rctty soon you realize that you
hayen't. forgiven nt all.
And tht n you sny, "I'll forgive, but
I can't forget."
Hlght thcro Is where you nro dis
honest with yourself; If you could for
clvo vou could forget, too. because for-
.getting Is part of forgiving.
! When you forgive you wipe the slate
I clean, you set nsldo all thought of the
"recent unpleasantness you forge: it.
If it stilt rankles, if it keeps In
truding Itself between you nnd the
friend who committed It, you haven't
forgotten thnt insult, Mint offense, that
attempt to hurt or annoy you, what
ever It was.
And If you haven't forgotten It you
haven't forgiven It.
THCnFj Is n very fine distinction be
tween forgiving nnd forgetting. It Is
I ensv to mistake nno for the other.
. 'rimr nrn imciiarnblc companions,
nnd if vou exercise one, thp only way
to do It thoroughly nnd properly is to
use thn other, too.
Of course' thcro are some things that
ought not to bo forgiven.
When von know that some one Is do-
. llberntvly tnking ndvnntago of your good
nature, over and over ngaln, it's n dif-
I feront story.
J If the earnest plea for forgiveness is
only one of many, and you know Mint it
' docs not come from tho heart or any-
' whero near the heart, it Is not worth
. listening to.
That Is one time that you can forget
I without forgiving, but you forget the
. person not the fact.
I You forget becauso you nro no longer
interested in this person who pretended
to be your friend.
You nro no longer interested because
you cannot forgive what sho has .done
nnd hnvo no desire to know Jier any
longer.
It is easy for her to snr "I'm so
I sorry, please forgive me," and then
I commit the self-sumo offense all over
I ngaln.
I Don't wnste your time wiUi her, she
is not worth the trouble forget her.
BUT when you havo really accepted
nn npology becauo ou don't want
, to oso a friend, even if bhe has hurt
j jou, j on owe it to her mid to yourself
' to he honest nnd thorough about it.

JERSEY,
Yesterday wc unhesitatingly made this
drastic cut in the price of the popular "Asco"
Blend Coffee, in spite of the fact that coffees of the
same high grade are selling elsewhere at 40c, 45c
and 50c per lb.
This reduction is made possible only because
of our close connections with the coffee producing
centres of the world. Whenever conditions permit
we are only too glad to give our customers the
benefit of every market change. Upon this policy
has been built the bond of confidence existing be
tween our customers and ourselves, and which has
been growing stronger and stronger during the
thirty odd years of our business contact with the
public.
Important!
Despite this big reduction in price, the
quality of Asco Blend remains the
same. We will continue to give you
the same rich, rare combination of
high -grade coffees from tlie world's
"nest coffee plantations the same
delightful aroma and wonderful flavor
that have won for Asco Blend the
reputation of being
it
the best coffee at any price"
