Don’t Blame
your Grocer
Advancing coffee prices are not your grocer's fault
i The fault is no one’s, particularly in this country, because
in this oountry we do not raise coffee. It is all imported from
die South and Central American countries.
This year's crop was only about one-half of the normal
size and now the predictions ere the 1925 crop will bo only one
! | half normal. It is all a question of supply and demand, but right
now, with a half crop in Brazil, and Central America having only
f ‘ a fur crop but supplying very little, it is inevitable that prices
I should have advanced.
I As we see conditions the world cannot look for lower
1: prices for some time and we must all expect to pey more for our
I favorite coffee.
I Bear in mind that coffee is still the cheapest drink obtain
I \ able and tbe cost too small to risk using a poor grade, for your
I i meals deserve the best

of Mr. Oliver Eldridge than whom we know of
no better adapted talent or temperament any
