Fly Shoes achieve their greatest
popularity among women who de
mand individuality in their foot-
wear. No matter how
critical a woman may be,
she can find no faults in
Fry Shoes.
This announcement of the completion of our Spring displays
is sure to meet with an enthusiastic response from women who
discriminate in the selection of footwear.

CERTAIN jobbing salesmen are circulating reports to the
effect that Armour and Company control certain retail grocery
stores or are planning to enter into the retail grocery business.
These reports are utterly and absolutely false.
We desire to brand them as such once and for all.
Armour and Company do not control any retail
grocery stores wholly or 1 ift part Neither have
we any affiliation or connection in any way what
soever with any owners of any retail grocery stores.
Armour and Company have no intention of en-
- r ! EI
gaging in uw reiau grocery ousmess.
Armour and Company distribute and sell a very
limited number of food hnes not directly produced
from livestock. This is only the result of .natural
evolution. Our system of distribution and market
ing must be maintained with the greatest possible
efficiency. It is necessary, for reasons of economy,
that it handle as great a volume at all seasons
as possible.
This same distributive system enables, us to carry
staple foods to the people of this country with
greater efficiency and at a cost that is low com
mensurate with the service. - If our facilities are
such that we have been able to serve the public
more economically and efficiently than our compet
itors, then itistheretailerandconsumerwobenefit "
Armour and Company are more than packers.
'They are food purveyors. But, our participation
in grocery lines represents only 4.6 per cent of
our total business. Yet, wholesale grocery houses
whose representatives spread these false reports
are, themselves, engaged in numerous side-lines
far removed from 1 edible products. A recent
bill of goods which we purchased from a whole
sale grocer, contained more than forty items,
not one of which could be used for food
except by an ostrich.
Reportsof our engaging, or intending to engage,
in the retail grocery business are, without excep
tion, untrue. In x the words of Mr. J. Ogden
Armour, "We have no intention of adding the
woes of retailing to the burdens of manufacturing
and distributing."
Armour and Company will continue to regard all re
tailers as our co-workers. By means of our refrig
erator cars and our branch houses it will be our
effort to continue to provide them with the finest
foods of all kinds that we can select and prepare
under the quality mark of the OVAL LABEL-!

Fires of Spring
Madnessare
Flaming
We Begin to Realize
Our General State
, of Boredom and
flesent It.
JSy BEATRICE EAIRFAX.
ThisTs the time of year when the
cherished parlor portieres appear
to be dust-collecting abominations,
and velvet hats strike us as magnifi
cent "burnt offerings" for the fur
nace. The fur coat we could not
resist last autumn has taken a place
in our affections second only to the
visiting cat who declines to take a
hint that her presence is unwelcome.
1 he cat confronts us at, every
turn; so does the coat, the portieres,
the velvet hat. But if we are past
18 we do not take these antipathies
too seriously. We realize we have
felt that way before about these
amc possessions, and the fur coat
and the velvet hat have been wel
comed back the first cool day in
autumn. So we invest in moth balls
and a tarpaper sack, and we put
them away in the full triumph oi
an acquired philosophy.
We realize our general boredom
with things that have to do with
winter and the prosaic, and the
past is just a bit of spring sorcery
that the. witchery is tempting, de
lightful but - not wholly to be
trusted. Omar, the tent-maker, put
it very well a couple of thousand
years ago, when he sang:
"Of me, and In the fire of .Spring
Your Winter-garment of Repentance fling:
The Bird of Time haa but a little way
To flutter and the Bird la on the Wing."
Let us suppose the "tired busi
ness man" or the "tired business
woman" reads this delightfully ir
responsible creed in one of these
well-gotten up editions of Omar
i. i. . . i , . , . ,
jMieyyarn tne Kina witn tne limp
back and the Vedder illustrations.
The "T. B. M." or "T. B. W." is
all for abandoning the typewriter,
the office desk, the stool in the dairy
lunch room where the midday pie is
eaten it all becomes an ao'mini
tion and a weariness to the flesh!
But common sense urges, if you do
this thing, what is going f become
of you?"
The respectable background of of
fice and flat, where the moving pic
ture of your daily life turns out its
five reels of respectable dullness,
may be inspiring. And the pictur
esque vagrancy that this fellow
Omar sings about sounds mighty
well but, on the whole, it will prob
ably lead to a park bench, ninety
days and a nasty writeup in the daily
papers. The flat is a bore, the office
is a soulless, brain picking machine,
the typewriter is a clattering, chat
tering horror, yet they are all bet
ter than their pictuesque vagrancy
equivalents.
This fellow Omar is better com
pany on a cold night, over the open
tire, than he is on a day when the
crocuses are peeping through the
grass. Then he's a positive danger,
a menace, a disturber6f public mor
als so back you put Omar, in his
limp cover, and the Vedder illustra
tions on the book shelf.
It is this eternal weariness with
life's daily bill of fare that explains
why so many estimable men and
women too succumb to strange sex
fancies that no one can explain.
When you see a delightful lady in
vesting in violent ties for a youth
young enough to be her son; when
you hear her quoting that youth's
half-baked deductions on life and
h'tters with reverence it's only a
symptom which means the lady is
ueary of her treadmill.
She has done her duty long and
faithfully; she has saved, bought
t-iberty bonds, read so many books
that were good for her, heard so
many improving talks, engaged in so
much uplift work and rolled so many
bandages that young Mr. Verdant
lirren represents nature's protest;
xhe is just weary of well-doing for
tlif moment. And the fledgling rep
ri'Miits all sorts of madness that
he has been repressing for years.
It is the same thing when staid
pater familias takes up with a
"vamp;" it is nature's protest at the
daily grind. To everyone else the
"vamp" seems a sorry enough prop
ositiondistinctly made-up, cheap,
a bit vulgar but to poor, dear fath
er she is just an escapc-from all the
estimable things he has been doing
lor years.
We are all more or less squirrels
rimniiur around and around the
wheels of our cages and anything
or anybody that means stopping
for a moment, is welcome. '
It isn't that you fall in love with
this stimulating and for the time be
ing fearfully interesting person. But
you want to be near him or her as
much as possible because he or she
helps you forget the wheel that is
waiting there for you to tread. You
want to escape your drudgery and
the gray "Tlailiness" of your life.
There is nothing especial to worry
about in this state of affairs, and
the wise husband or wife does not
lay too much stress upon it. After
a while plodding pater familias wakes
up to a realization that the lady with
the long earrings ii rather tiresome
and Mary has been a dear not to
have noticed his nonsense. So he
invites Mary to the theater, as a
sort of an act of reparation, and he
notices how quiet and peaceful home
is, after all, and that, really, the
children are quite yie most promisy
ing on the block.
And the lady, approaching the
dangerous age. begins to find out
that while young; Mr. Verdant
Green's point of view has a certain
amount of freshness, it is distinctly
raw. His immaturity is beginning
to get on her nerves; an evening
without his insistent egoism begins
to appear in the light of an asset.
She gets back to her consciencious
round no worse for her little fling.
That's all very well, you will say
but how are you going to keep this
"Fires of Spring" business from be
coming a conflagration and destroy
ing the domestic machinery; how
can it be stopped at the psycholog
ical moment, and prevent the little
domestic comedy from becoming a
tragedy? .
And the only answer is "brains;"
The hand on the domestic throttle
has got to have intelligence behind
it; if it is a feminine hand, it has
got to know when not to nag, when
to be blind and when to see, and il
it is "a masculirre hand, it will be a.
more difficult matter, because it
hasn't that God-given gift of intu
ition; but patience accomplishes
wonders.
