Baby Says
"I can't always ask for what I want
but I let you know when I get
what I want."
What baby wants most of all is the
loving care of Mother, especially
when Mother is aided by the baby
necessities that we can supply. Our
entire line of baby goods is made
up of the products of manufactur
ers who have long recognized that
Purity Is Essential
We have always used the utmost
care in handling goods in this de
partment Careful mothers can do nothing
wiser than to come here for baby foods, nurs
ing bottles, nipples, soaps, sponges, powders,
and those internal and external remedies
long associated with tho care of the baby.

Is swlveled iu a brass washer so_as to

draws the washers nearer together,
expanding the robber so as to hold the

When the screw is turned to the left,

Sir. Schwab, who has come up from

to advise any yottng man who has an
influence not to use It to get a start.
.Mr. Schwab laid down as the first
fundamental of a successful life, "Un
impeachable Integrity." Character Is
the biggest asset in business. A whole
array of brilliant qualities will not
take the place of this cornerstone of
enduring success. The whole tenor of
Mr. Schwab's heart-to-heart talk was
a new emphasis on the old-fashioned
qualities of loyalty. Industry and per
sistence. The young man who pos
sesses these traits is bound to succeed,
for opportunity was never so great as
It Is today. So Industry Is more high
ly organized than the steel Industry,
yet with all the progress made In the
last 20 years the industry Is far from
its zenith. So great is tiie magnitude
of modern industry In all branches
that opportunities for leadership. In
stead of decreasing as some Imagine,
have actually Increased In proportion
us Industry Itself has grown.
