‘c French Market Coffee a
Has Never Been Successfully Imitated
It Cannot Be >
ARM AND FIELD SEEDS
The Easter shoppers were out In
full force yesterday at the stores. To-
day you may get an idea of their ideas
of style and fashion by going to the
churches. By the first of next month
—at the latest, the hubby’s will know
what the cost has been, and pay 4t.
if they can, and rejoice that Easter
comes but once a year.
TOFFEE roasted the ordinary way is only
A partially roasted, according to French
ideals. The French Market Coffee way
is the scientific way, producing a perfect roast.
Slowly—carefully—the roasting goes on until
exactly the right moment arrives.
The slow roast reduces about 10 per cent
more Weight than the ordinary roast.
All excess of oil vanishes. Yet the delicate
flavor and aroma is there, intensified and en-
hanced. .
Chilled, Ground and
Hermetically Sealed
TYIRECT from the roasters, the coffee is
L chilled in a cold-air-blast machine. This
chilling closes the pores of the bean, thus
preventing a single breath of the entrancing
aroma to escape in the vapors.
Quickly-by automatic machinery—this freshly
roasted, freshly ground, freshly chilled, delicious
coffee is placed in tin cans, and hermetically
sealed.-*,*--3-1
So it comes to your table as perfect as
when it left the roasters—untouched by human
hands.
Famous for Over
‘ a Hundred Years
TEN when French Market Coffee could be 1
had only in the old French Market at New
Orleans, over a hundred years ago, it was
celebrated all over the South. - ,
Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay and other fa-
mous men of olden times visited the French
Market to enjoy the rarely Delicious beverage.
But now you all may serve it daily on your
own table. .
For the rare old French blend has been per-
petuated by the French Market Mills, and the
hermetically-sealed process places genuine
French Market Coffee within the reach of all.

e NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING vs.
ROAD SING ADVERTISING.
As a general thing, it to the adver-
User who deserves most credit for
town building. The readers of news-
pavers, generally speaking are those
- who do the most buying. Naturally
enough, the buyers need suggestions,
and by reading the ads of the live wire
. merchants they get these suggestions
which are of great assistance to them.
If the newspaper which he reads most
to not well patronised with live-wire
merchants ads, the buyers of merchant
dise then secure a newspaper that does
contain such advertising, and the re-
suit to that many dollars that should
circulate in their natural trade terri-
tory, are sent away to the merchant
who advertises. That is the secret of
success of the mail order, or what is
more generally referred to as the cata-
.. rogue houses. They constantly keep be-
fore the public their line of business
So- long as the local merchant does
not think enough of his patrons to ad
vertise his line through the columns
of the local paper, of all others, be
should be the last to complain sbout
people sending away for what could be
purchased at home at a price no great-
er. perhaps, than to charged by the eat
alogue houses. When the Times makes
whereof it speaks. There to not the
least doubt in the world but that the
ordinary reader of newspapers read
the papers as much for their advertis-
ing features as they do for the news,
and it has copie under the observa-
tion of the Times that it has lost more
subscribers on account of the absence
of liveadvertising matter than has
been the case for its short-comings in
the matter of furnishing the news.
This is a circumstance that should ap-
peal strongly to the local merchant
of any town or city. This is an ago of
enlightenment and while bridge, fence
post and sign board advertising, are
good in a way, they can not always
be relied on. The next time you take
a drive in the country just take a pen-
all and note book with you, and make
a note of all the fence-poet, bridge and
sign board advertisers you pass in a
ten-mile drive, and as an evidence
that thst kind of advertising is not
the best, just look over your list end
see how many of those advertisers are
still in business. In many cases
you will find they have ceased to exist,
and the capital with which they start
ed in business has parted from them.
In a way such advertising is all right.
For instance, if there was a law that
made it compulsory for John Jones to
take down his sign when he ceased to
do business. But there to no such law,
and if all the firms who have signs
stuck up on the roads leading to Wich-
ita Falls from all directions for a dis-
tance of twenty miles were in business
today, as the reader of the signs might
presume, this city would be one of
about 50,000 population, instead of only
about 10,000 or 12,000. But no one to
misled by this kind of advertising.
The people have learned long ago that
road sign advertising is misleading,
and for that reason it has but little
effect The real live-wire merchant,
the merchant who does the business,
to the one who plants his faith In news-
paper advertising, and sticks to It

"The men against whom we stand
include the men who desire to ex-
ploit the people for their own pur-
pose and who profit financially by the
wicked alliance between crooked
business and crooked politics. ,
“If you people in Illinois let the
bread and butter politicians and the
Federal officeholders and the men of
the stamp of Senator Lorimer and
his associates control ,you at ths ap-
proaching primaries or master you in
your government, you cannot, expect
to get social or industrial justice.
The boss system is based on and
thrives by injustice. Wherever you
get the boss or a legislature control-
ed by mercenary politicians there
you will always find that privilege
flourishes; there the greet special in-
terests are striking hands with the
crooked politicians and helping them
plunder the people in the interest of
both wings of the corrupt alliance. It
is to the interest of every honest man
that this alliance shall be broken up.
We are fighting today one phase of
the eternal struggle for right and for
justice.
“Every man who fights for the pro-
tection of children from exceesive
toll; for the protection of women
from working in the factories for two
long hours; in short for the working
man and his family—every man who
works for any such cause is our fel-
’ow worker and we hall him as such.
We are reallyedefending the cause of
the children of the rich beneficiaries
of special privilege against what
would be fatal action by their fath-
ers. The sons of millionaires will
find this a very poor country to live
n if most of the men and women
who make up the bulk of our ordin-
ary citizenship do not have conditions
so shaped that they can lead self-re-
specting lives, retain their own
tense of dignity and live as good citi-
zens.” * -*
