HERE’S a straight money saving tip: Before starting your heating plant this fall, be sure it’s thoroughly vacuum cleaned. It is one of the greatest precautions you can take to in sure its most economical opera tion during the winter ahead. When the heating surfaces are covered with as little as one sixteenth of an inch of soot (which acts as an insulator against heat, being five times as effective as asbestos) it wastes fully one-quar ter of every ton of coal you burn I What’s more, a furnace caked with dirt and dust won’t deliver nearly as much heat as a clean furnace will. Call in a competent service man now and arrange for a thorough vacuum cleaning of your furnace. He will do the job without mites or inconvenience. While he’s doing that, have him check up the whole heating sys tem from flue to ashpit—guard against any possible failure of the plant after cold weather sets in. I know you’ll find the cost is little compared with the staggering cost of the fuel that a dirty, faulty plant is sure to waste! Every home-owner wants to save and not waste his fuel dollars!

Beauty of Conviction Conviction brings a silent, inde finable beauty into faces made of the commonest human clay; the devout worshiper at any shrine reflects something of its golden glow, even as the glory of a noble love shines like a sort of light from a woman’s face.—Balzac. Worthy of Friendship “\4AKE me worthy of * friendship, and give me friends; make me worthy of love, and give me love,” was ^ the daily prayer of a loyal heart that had learned the sa credness of human ties. Many a lonely one, complaining of neglect and isolation would find life’s whole environment changed by learning humbly and sincerely to pray that prayer. Friendship, to abide, must find a worthy resting place, and love has its duties. No one can demand either as a right. The heart that is ten derly and unselfishly ready for them will never miss them. «r-- ■' ROM ■ it r, i fl "Cap-Bru»K ApplitaLo. ,1 J..,T . "BLACK LEAF *0“ MUCH FARTHER DASH IN FEATHERS .
