A hen is not suppos
ed to have much com
mon sense or tact, yet
every t:me she lays an
egg she cackles forth
the fact.
A rooster hasn’t got
a lot of intellect to
show, ’out nonetheless
most roosters have
enough good sense to
crow.
The mule, the most
despised of beasts, has
a persistent way of
letting people know
he’s around by his in
insistent bray.
The bees they buzz,
the polly swears, the
bulls bellow and cows
moo, and watch-dogs
bark, and ganders
quack, and doves and
pigeons coo.
The peacock spreads
his tail and squawks;
pigs squeal and robins
sing, and even serpents
know enough to hiss
before they sting.
But man, the great
est masterpiece that
nature could devise
will often stop and
hesitate before he’ll
ADVERTISE.

PUNISHED CHILDREN MAY

were frozen when they were

medical attention. When a doc
tor amputated their feet the
flesh had decayed and only the
bare bones withstood the pois

ROBIN RED BREAST
THE BEST FLOUR
ON EARTH!
--And It Costs No More
If it were possible to procure a better quality of
wheat—a better process of milling—a better flour than
Robin Red Breast, the name of that flour would be Ro
bin Red Breast! In no respect is ANY flour superior
though many cost more.
Robin Red Breast Hour makes the finest, light bis
cuit—the most brittle and appetizing pie crust—the
most superb and delicious cake.
Isn't it logical that Robin Red Breast Flour should
be so exceedingly popular with so many housewives if
it is the best procurable notwithstanding the price is
no higher than many ordinary breads?
Every Good Grocer Sells And Highly Recommends
Robin Red Breast Flour
It’s “The Heait of the Grain Plus the Art of the Brain.”
