Kryl’s Daughter Gave Up Money to Marry Chicago, Oct. 18.—Her father’s promise of SIOO,OOO if she remained unmarried until she was 30 was an inducement to Josephine Kryl for six years, but the idea of another six years—well the idea didn’t last last long after she met Paul Taylor White, a music composer of Boston. A message, signed, ‘Mrs. Paul Tailor White” announced that Josephine had broken her pact with her fether. Six years ago Josephine, then 18 was a promising violin student under the tutelage of Psaye, and her sister, Marie, then 16, was an accomplished pianist. Their father Bohumir Kryl. himself a noted musician, had great ambitions of careers for his daughters, so great that he exacted thQ same promise from each —to remain single until 30 —when SIOO,OOO each would be their reward. The nil? was so rigid that no young men were to be entertained in the Kryl home. Last week. Josephine, who has signed contracts for European ap pearances this winter with various symphony orchestras, said she had an appointment with a dentist and left the Kryl residence. Her message from Boston was the first word her father received since. Northwestern University no longer will employ married instructors, because the lost of living and social demands are excessive in Evanston. Married instructors employed at present can remain.

When feeling well they take unnecessary . chances, which in the long run cause much pain and trouble. Wet feet, exposure to cold, lifting heavy burdens and overwork will often develop troubles which cause no end of suffering. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is the unfailing remedy in such' cases. Thousands of American women will testify to this fact Who have regained health and strength by Its use. If you are suffering it will pay you to give it a fair trial. t_s_|_WANT ADS EARN—s—s—t

Your grocer now has it as well as the regular. ... , . Instant Quaker cooks in 3 to 5 minutes. The cooking is perfect —experts certify to that. The same exquisite flavor The fame of Quaker Oats is due to super-flavor. We flake tie queen grains only—just the rich, plump, flavory oats. We get but ten pounds from a bushel. All the world over Quaker Oats dominates, because people love that flavor. And Quaker will always have it. Instant Quaker is made from the <ame queen oats. The flavor is identical. But we cut the grains before flaking. Then we roll them thin and partly cook. ’ So the flakes are smaller and thinner—that is all. And those small, thin flakes cook quickly. Now you have a double reason for selecting Quaker Oats. You get that exquisite flavor. And you get, if you wish, flakes that cook almost instantly. In either respect, there is no other oaS dish in existence that compares. B Regular Quaker Oats brtv, Come in package at left — the style you have always known. Instant Quaker Oats Come in package at right, with the extra “Instant” label. Your grocer has both. Be sure to get the style you want, Packed in sealed round packages with removable covers
