The wisdom of nature is seen every where;
By instinct its creatures are taught to pre-
pare.
The squirrel quits playing around the trees
To store nuts for the winter; he knows it
will freeze.
And thebusy bee also knows just what to do.
It stores honey the whole summer through.
It looks like a lesson from this we should
take
To not only work but save what we make.
The City National knowing Nature is wise
Would not undertake to better advise.

Wherever automobiles are
driven, the emblem “ Body
by Fisher” is recognized as a
hallmark of quality. Every-
where, it identifies automo-
biles that are distinguished for
style, beauty, and comfort.
The sensational success of the

it brings all these exclusive ad-

Don’t abuse yourself because you are
