An Exceptionally Rep
resentative Showing
of Women's Early
Fall Appareling.
When wc say to you that it is possible for you to come here
now any time and count the new Fall Suits by the hundreds,
you will be able to form some idea of what we have prepared
for you,
Never before have we had so many garments so early in
the season.
It is a showing that would be worthy the store on its
lormal "Opening Days," and they are still some little time
away,.Every thing that is new for the season is represented.
There Are Untold Advantages
in Early Choosing.
First ot all, you will get garments ot an exclusive character
kinds like which there will be no duplicates later in the sea
son. Your next door neighbor will not have a gown like yours
if you get it here.
Secondly color range. Now all shades that are new and
good are here in abundance. A month hence they will be
scarce the mills having supplied their output.
The garments now here too, are made by the best men
tailors we know of and they are made ahead ot the rush and
crush that exists at the moment in the big New York tailor
houses, for they are all in the midst of their busiest days. This
means a little more careful attention to details in the handiwork
and less opportunity tor mistakes than when a suit has to be
rushed.
.Materials most fa.vored include Wale Cheviots, Homespus,
Bannockburn Tweeds, Series and
coats are cut from 40 to 50 inches in length.
The price range is from $15 to $75.

I go, though reluctantly. I llko to get
down to brass tacks every onoe In a
while and tell who of my congregation
are llara, gossipere, tattlers and back
biters. It ought to be a good lesson
tor the guilty as well as the Innocent.

stood my motive, but I want you to
understand that I have tried to be al
ivays sincere, always charitable, al
ways honest. You may sot hear the
tmth here again for some time, but

How Prof. Anderson
Foods Shot from
He was seeking a way to break up
starch granules, so the digestive juices
could get to them.
Cooking or baking only begins to
do that. No old-time method breaks
up all of the granules.
So he conceived the idea of blasting
those granules to pieces by an explo
sion of steam.
And these foods resulted the most
delicious, most digestible cereal foods
ever created.
Puffed Wheat-lOc Puffed Rice-I5c
These are the foods invented by Trof. An
derson, and this is his curious process:
The whole wheat or rice kernels are put into
sealed guns. Then the puns are revolved for
sixty minutes in a heat of 550 degrees.
That fierce heat turns the moisture in the
grain to steam, and the pressure becomes tremendous.

Invented
Guns
Each kernel, by the explosion, is
puffed to eight times size. It is made
four times. as porous as bread.
It is made nut-like and crisp, ready
to melt in the mouth.
They are made so enticing that
children delight in them. Grown
folks, too.
They arc so irresistible that seven
teen million dishes were consumed
last month.
When will you find them out?
, Then the guns are unsealed, and the steam
explodes. Instantly every starch granule is
blasted into a myriad particles.
The kernels of grain are expanded eight
times. Yet the coats are unbroken, the shapes
are unaltered. We have simply the magnified
grain.
One package will tell you why people de
light in them. Order it'now.
