Is Uncle Bim Saved?
Peer Uncle Blm
Te the Edtter of the Evening Public Ledger:
I Sir Let me sny te your readers why
I find fault with Uncle Blm? He is de
serving of our deepest sympathy. He
may be n boob In nppearunce nnd cer- J
tnln of his actions, but, believe me,
Mr. Smith haB him in nn nwkwnrd po
sition, for he must tealize that his at-1
tt notion 1 his money en both sides aj
case of 'between the devil aiul tne
fioep s.en." If Blm were wise he would
drop both schemers nnd hie himself back
te Australia, get his equilibrium, nnd
then come back heart free te n fur
ther conquest. We don't want the
Widow te land him, nnd neither de we
went te see Blm remain single. But
what is the geed soul te de. when he
finds nothing but scheming all about
him? We cannot wonder nt his be
lie. In the frnl'ty of women, the way
Zander and Mln hnve been pulling
wires, se let logical Andy engineer his
re'utlve hereafter Inte n sane and safe

Who Is te Blame: Mistress or Maid?

Net until maids improve themselves
nnd make Ged proud of them let alone
we ordinary mortals are they entitled
te the front deer. I let a colored maid
use the front deer she then wanted
te sic at the table with us. She wild I
didn't llke her any mere because I refused.

INTELLIGENT
INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION
In spite of clever machinery, there is
geed handwork in Pierce-Arrew. It
receives many touches of craftsman
ship, of intelligent individual atten
tion from workmen trained te im
prove and carry a bit further the work
of the machines. This personal, exclu

the power of human intelligence te

as the machines finished it, would still

most natural method of helping the clrld te educate himself. IT ANSWERS EVERY
QUESTION A CHILD CAN ASK IN PLAIN AND SIMPLE LANGUAGE. Se capti
