When we are sick is the time' that wekend for a doctor. In China they do things differently indeed, the almond-eyed Mongolian
does everything in just the opposite way. In the Celestial Kingdom they wear white instead of black for mourning; they write from the
bottom up and from left to right; indeed, their very feet are opposite ours, as if they were standing on their heads. When our attention was

This Is the Silk Age; Everybody who is anybody,
wears silk nowadays. The government has practically
appropriated the wool, and all the nations have been
crazy to get our cotton. Flax and linen are almost out of
the market. So the silk worm has to work overtime.
Dear Old Aunt Mary will think we mean to be funny,
but we have" no intention of being so. We simply desire
to place the facts before you, so that you will be informed
and to point a noral, namely this: for reasons stated,
demand for silks is so immense, that prices are mounting:
sky-high. Now, therefore, is a good time to buy for your
needs and a little beyond.

We Men. In the Old Days
were not given much to wearing of silk. Occasionally
and sometimes oftener we used to say that we felt "as fine
as silk,'.' but that was the extent of our intimacy indeed
we balked if we were referred to as a "Silk Stocking"
(we never really got into that class ourselves). Use and
Wont are wonderful things. Now most men want Silks.

The prices quoted above are close to actual cost in
almost every instance. It costs nowadays about 25 per.
cent to do business. In some big institutions 30 per cent,
or more. We won't insult your intelligence by suggesting
Why it Is done. This is not merchandising. But fafr
warning we'll stay with the fool prices till the top of
Avernus is used as a skating rink. Whatever is advertised
elsewhere, not included in this list, if we have it, we will
meet or beat the price.
s Cobb Has Bought Some New Containers
for His Candy .
Ever alert and watchful to improve, his motto might
well be Excelsior. Cobb's business out of town is very'
1 large, his desire has been to! have his Candy fresh and
perfect upon arrival. He has secured at last an Ideal con-'
tainer, and it is as attractive in appearance as it is de
. pendable for the perfect keeping of its contents. And the
beauty of It is it does not add enormously to the cost. For
hotter weather Cobb has many Delicacies. Just the thing ;
perhaps that you feel the need of to top off the meal, or
to add the right touch in an emergency Bon Bons and;
Caramels, and such a variety of Chocolates. Do you
know, it's worth something to know how to buy? What
to buy. How to keep. How to dip. How to decorate for
the milestones of life, as well as the pleasant occasions.
Cobb and his good wife know. Ices and creams take up .
lots of time now. Telephone Saturday morning if you ,
want any for the Sunday dinner. Last week some orders :
were too late for the Novelties and the Choicer Dainties.'
Douglas 51. Say "Cobb" that's alL No use asking you to
come in the morning for your Candy, for most of you
won't do it.
