BUT THE SIMPLE

“I’d give anything to be well,” I
heard a woman say wistfuIlly .the
other day- 1 .
A few weeks later I heard the
~ mm* woman »ay; "I know 1 ought
to drink more water. Dr- J, told
me I must drink eight glaskea of
.water a day, bpt I simply can’t re-
member it. I did it for a few days,
but it is so bard to remember. I
must think of some’ way tp remind

eration (with plenty of flowers and
letters «nd sympathy from friends) . . .
or take a rest cure at some pleasant da, who
sanitarium. "
She doesn’t mean that she would
do the little daily things like drink-
ing enough water and eating simple
food and getting out doors more and
taking prescribed exsreisjs.
These are too insignificant, too
commonplace and too monotonous.
It’s like being willing to make a
big sacrifice for someone you love,
something dramatic and then being
asked instead to keep from being
irritable and to give up some little
pleasures or pet-indulgence for hitn
or hsr.

The parcel post’s benefits were
*■ decried when it was started. The
bitter fight made against it was
largely from the express companies
which eaw in it a menace to their
own business. Rural mail routes—
now so general over the whole coun-
try and of huge benefits to rural
ettizroa—also bpgan as an experi-
ipent viewed with dubiety by very
many. The pareel post ha* given
» the public a very good service at
a very nominal rate and its intro-
duction has not wrought the disas-
ter upon the express companies
that they anticipated. The exten-
sion to make it vender a new and
~1 helpful aervice can be satisfactorily
proved or disproved by the experi-
ment the Georgia ‘ Congressman
propose* and the expense of con-
ducting the trial on 50 routes would
not be prohibitive.

HOW MANY OF YOU REMEMBER
• '■ •- , ■ t
—when a suit of clothes was not supposed to fit ? It will be newa ’
to the younger generation, but many fathers and all grandfath- '
ers remember when, in years past, that in buying a suit, one
need not expect an exact fit. There were straps and buckle in
the back of the trousers. One could adjust these straps and '
make the trousers fit nicely (?) at waist. The length was al- <
tered by simply turning up the bottoms. Vests were fitted by
means of a buckle and straps. The particular dresser hsd bright,
shiny nickel buckles. It was rarely the case that one had a
suit pressed—just “wasn’t done”—no use any way, as the inner ,
working of coat were inferior and would not respond to good
treatment in the. form of pressing. |12 was the selling price of >
the best suits in this store at that time. In those days there was ’
no alteration eapense for customer or retailer. .The custoniar !
does not bear the expense at this store now, but we are very ;
careful to see that we fit clothes perfectly, regardless of the
costs for alterations, Other betterment* exist in clothing ready- *
to-put-on today, not in fabrics only, but in style, tailoring and J
fit. Thanks to this tetter workmanship, suits wear longer and
