Capitalizing
Assets
By LORETTO C. LYNCH.
"You have had those curtains 20
years?"
es, smiled the proud house
wife, "and they look like new be
cause I let only one woman launder
them. I'm taking them to her to
morrow for the annual tubbing be
fore I store them for the summer."
The laundress' cottage contained
four rooms. The water had to be
carried. There was no electricity
and no gas. Wood was burned in
the old-fashioned range.
An accident had deprived Mrs.
Kemp of one eye and one hand.
Did she sit down and weep? Not a
bit of it. She capitalized the phys
ical assets that remained as well
as her talent for washing and iron
ing. She figured that the average
family washing took all day and net
ted about $3. And so she specialized
on laundry work which was difficult
to do, but yielded big returns.
Curtains, hue linens, shirtwaists of
real lace, collar and cuff sets, bridal
trousseaus, babies' layettes these
were the things Mrs. Kemp had in
at that time.
For mending she charged extra.
Many customers sent their work to
her by parcel post. One woman, she
told us, sent her dainty things on a
five-day journey to her.
She told me that when she real
ized her handicap she decided to try
to do one ordinary thing better than
anybody else. Doesn't seem to be a
bad idea for anyone to have in mind.
So many, with every modern con
venience to bless them, slide over
laundry work.
Yet with the many helps in the
way of soap and dirt chasers, with
every labor-saving device within
reach of the average housewife,
whatever laundry work we do, we
ought to try to do well.

Man Is Dictator to
Fashion
At last Dame Fashion ltfcs met
her Waterloo. And the conqueror is
mere man. For in spite of the dame's
predictions that black was to reign
supreme this summer in milady's
costume, the stronger sex for such
it has proven itself in this instance
has ordained otherwise.
And it all came about because too
many men were seeing their wives
gowned as they will be at the time
when they the men arc no longer.
As one man remarked, "It's had
enough to sec your wife going
around in mourning but when she
acts so jolly about it why, it makes
one feci that he is no longer needed
in this world."
Which brings tip the old question,
"Docs woman dress to please men
or other women?"
We believe wc have it answered,
for manufacturers have announced
that blue is to take the place of
black. Canton crepe is Mill popular,
they say, but it has a close following
in georgette crepe. Very narrow rib
bons of the same coloring will ba
used as trimming for the blue frocks,,
the ribbon being applied in artistic
scrolls or appliqucd like braid.
Raisins are excellent to swectc

I Extract Teeth
Without Pain
Money back if I hurt you
Dcn't let those old roots and decayed teeth remain
in your mouth another day to ruin your health and
personal appearance. Dentistry is not the painful
ordeal that it was years "ago.
.You'll go out of my office with a smile
I specialize en nervous patients and those having very sensitive teeth. I have every appliance
and convenience for doing painless work, and when I say painless, I mean exactly what I say.
I do not belong to any so-called Dental company and I do not employ assistants. All my work
is done by me personally and I do not allow work to leave my office that is not entirely satis
factory to the patient.
Poor
Dental Work
ia expensive at any price. Poor den
tistry causes more trouble than no
dentistry at all. Do you know that
95 per cent of all dental work done
ia imperfect T
Why
First and most common reason is :
Incompetent dentists.
Second: Poor materials.
Third: Prices so cheap that work
has to be rushed and cannot be
don satisfactorily.
Trust yourself to an operator who
is responsible. It ia not the flashy
rase that makes a good watch, but
the works inside: so it ia with
dentistry, and it ia always best to
investigate thoroughly before hav
ing work done, then patronize a
dentist who will give you what you
expect the best at a reasonable
price.
i
I am a specialist on cronn and
bridge work, having; spent years in
the study of this most technical
branch of dental surgery. No matter
how bad your teeth are, I can treat
you painlessly and can assure you .
of a complete plate or bridge that
will feel and look like your own
teeth. I do not boast of quantity.
but I do take pride in the quality
of my work.
Poor dentistry means aching and
sensitive teeth, sora gums and un
sanitary mouths, then after work is
completed, the patient finds he is
money out, teeth ruined and the
work has to b dona over at a
double price.
A few points
to remember:
Honest treatment, clean office, per
sonal attention, good materials,
honest prices, satisfaction and
painless. Write about your tooth
troubles.
