The New Idea in Underwear!
There is a way to be comfortable even when
the day is sweltering hot.
Use underwear that does not cling to the
skin, but acts as a bellows with every move
ment of the body.
This removes perspiration and gives com
fort. There is no garment that will fulfill these re
quirements like Vassar Athletic. Try them.

for him and asked him:
"Can you, discover America?"
"Yes," Columbus answered, "if
you will give me a boat."
He got his boat and sailed in the
direction that he believed America
was. The sailors mutined and In
sisted there was no such place as
America, but presently the pilot

"Columbus, land is In sight."
"Well, It's America," Columbus

Columbus saw a group of natives.
"Is this America?" he asked them.
"Yes," they replied.
"I suppose you are Indians," Co
