This suit supremacy, the standard ol suit quality has been most rigorously maintained. That there is a distinctive style to James Suits, is a fact well known. That distinctive style, tailored excellence, and suit quality have been combined with a moderateness of price can be proved by a personal investigation nn your part.

How Prof. Anderson Invented Foods Shot from Guns 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. 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 are so irresistible that seven teen million dishes were consumed last month. When will you find them out? Puffed Wheat-lOc Puffed Rice-15c These are the foods invented by Prof. 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. 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.
