Mrs. T. A. Harris of Lawton, Okla.,

Young man, there is one thing you
cannot do. You cannot make a suc
cess in life unless you work. Older
men than vou have tried and failed.
You cannot loaf around the stree.
corner, smoke, tell stories and sponge
on someone else without making a
failure in life. You must learn a
trade or get into some honest busi
ness. If you don’t you will become
a chronic loafer and there is no place
in the world for loafers. The ripe
fruit is at ‘he top of the tree and you
must climb if you set it or some
smart man will pluck it from you.
Do something, no mater how small
or how low the wages, it wil be a
starter. Help yourself and others
will help you. There is no royal road
to success; will, grit and endurance
are the qualities that lead to it.
The great American sin is profani
ty. The use of profane language is
not confined to the street loafers, the
thug and the sot; men who move in
good society, business men of stand
ing and reputation, young men and
old men, and even boys of tender
years, are addicted to this unexcus
pble habit. There is nothing more
disgusting than to hear a man punc
tuate his e”ery utterance with lurid
oaths.

Thick, rich, delicious and full of
flavor. Four good reasons why
Karo is preferred everywhere
Karo is pure. It is splendid energy producing’ food—
practically predigested. Mothers give children Karo
and sliced bread because it satisfies nature’s craving
for sweets, and takes the place of candy.
There Are Three Kinds
hI Of Karo
“Crystal White’*—in the Red Can
“Golden Brown**—in the Blue Can
“Maple Flavor”—
the new Karo with plenty of
•ubitance and a rich Maple taste
— in the Green Can.
IMPORTANT NOTICE— Every can of Karo it marked with I
exact weight in pounds of syrup contained. Do not be misled by
packages of similar size bearing numbers only, and having no
relation to weight of contents.
