GETTING GREEN IN SHAPE
Mr. John 'Hunter has been get-
ting the bowling green in
shape for the coning season. If
the fine weather c ontinues it
won't be long before the bowlers
will be playing at their /.atvorite
pastime. Membership card is al-
ready in circulation and it looks
as if the club will have a prosper
OUs year.
A NEW SPRINGTIME TOAST.
The bright sunshine and April
showers will soon be waking all
of the flowers and animals from
their winter sleep. Automobiles
are already taking the place of
sleighbells all over the land: Did
you bear of the bright little' girl.
at a dinner party who heard big-
ger people making toasts? She
held up her glass of water, saying,
"Here's to the auto, may we hear
it tool: in time to scoot!' A very
sensible toast. -"
RATTIER IRRITATING.
A business loan has a lot to put
up with in the neglect of his pat-
rons to pay small accounts. We
find, in the newpaper field, the
same difficulty. Carrying a small
account and telbdering it from
time to time is, irritating, more
especially when no notice of it is
taken, It may be forgetfulness on
the part of those who owe. How-
ever, it is unfair to those who
have trusted you and sold goods
close. Way ask them to use their
profits in clunners for an honest
debt?

Kirsch Rods Can't Sag -Never Tarnish
Kirsch is the man who took the "sag" out of Curtain
Rods by inventing a flat extension rod with round edges
andcurved ends, which allows your curtains to hang flush
against your casing, making a very pleasing effect. They
may be attached in such a way as to show the woodwork
or if desired, to hide the casings, should they not be as
nicely finished as you would like.
They can behad either single or double.
Are easy to put up, and are durable.

SHOE POINTS
Here are a few points to consider when ready
for yourSpring Shoe purchases—
It is very easy for almost any Shoe House to
say, ''Our Shoes are the Best and Cheapest"
and then quote a few prices to convince you
of the fact.
PRICEES TELL YOU NOTHING,
Read any shoe advertisement and you will find
the quoted prices, are about the same the
country over.
Shoes for men and women have been sold at
$2.50, $3, 3.50. $4, etc., for years and they will
continue to be sold at about the same price for
years to come—nobody can control a shoe
price.
We ask you to come here to see the best Shoe
Values offered anywhere at any stated price—
the best productions of Canada's' best makers
of shoes for men, women and children.
