The Geler came from Tslng Tau, in company of the German steamer Lock son, which had been impressed Into ser vice as a collier. Inasmuch as there are no longer any open German coaling ports In the Pacific, the Gelcr would have been allowed 300 tons, of coal here, or enough to tftke It to the nearest German port.

You've felt the longing. Wliat do you do i Probably what 8 out of 10 men do. You let cigar price guide you in making your selection rather than cigar quality. You pick out the highest priced cigar your pocket-book will bland.. The unfortunate part is that the high priced cigar does not always mean satis faction. It requires more than expensive tobacco alone to produce a mild, full-flavored cigar. Full-flavored mildoess depends upon the correct blending of the right kinds of tobacco. You will recognize it at once in the Robert Burns. The Robert Burns has the rare flavor and mildness which indicate smooth, mellow tobacco that is perfectly blended. Every fragrant-burning inch of the Robert Burns is the same. Always mild always the same generous measure of delicate flavor you get real smoke-satisfaction from the first puff to the last. Our new "Invincible, is an especially fine looking, frce-gmoking shape of the Robert Burns. nr 'do III Lme Babbie? IM OOITWAY CZQAS OO, SUeu City, lew. ASU-IUI BBTTO CO.. Oaska aa OonnoU muffs. V 1 I
