Why not try that Battery with the Dreadnaught Plates
IF your car needs: a new battery, why not try a Gould? You've heard a lot about it, and read the ads in the weekly magazines. There’s a reason for the rugged power and extra-long life of the Gould. It's Dreadnaught Plates —and let us tell you : : Plates Make the Battery for they are the reservoirs of power. Everything else in a battery is incidental to the operation of the plates and subject to their life. An exclusive Gould process, never successfully imitated in 11 years, puts the extra life and power in Dreadnaught Plates. - And that saves dollars for the Gould user. We can supply a Gould built for your car.

RELIEVES BEES OF LABOR
Metal Honey Comb Helps Industrial insects to Lay Up More Honey For Their Owner.
*Comb. foundation” {originally the inveution of a woman) is a familiar ecomwercial product nowadays, belng mude of beeswax and turned out by a simple machine that somewhat resembles a clothes wringer, : - Rectanguiar sheets of this material are placed In the frames of the beehive, and, being already lald out with sultable foundations for the cells they relleve the bees of just that much work, the industrious Insects having only to bulld up the walls to such bheight as the spacing of the frames permits. ‘

One advantage of the aluminum sheets is that they are not fragile.

Ruth took the penny and eyed It solemnly. “Isn’t it nice, daddy,” she asked, “that while everything else keeps going up in price Sunday school stays just the same?” .
