WINS! Cigar Popular for Thirty Years Now Selling in the Millions at sc. Smokers Everywhere Enthusiastic An astounding success, this cigar. For years it sold at more than a nickel. It was so good that the demand increased amazingly. We brought it down to five cents straight. Then we improved it. Today more smokers are buying it than ever before. We want skepties to try. out Havana Ribbon against any other five-cent cigar. Test it for every quality found in a good cigar—ripeness of tobacco used, flavor, fragrance, body, and mildness. All we ask is for you to buy one Havana Ribbon at five cents. Smoke it and ask yourself if you ever tasted such quality in any cigar at anywhere near like the price. You’ll never wonder again whether a cigar selling at 5c can be really satisfying. You’ll know if is.

m ——-——————_-—,—-———i—_?___!_ LACK OF CAPITAL SLOWS UP RUSSIA . In Russia the situation of three or four years ago has been reversed, and now concession geekers have almost vanished from the stage, while the government in its turn is hunting for capitalists to take over new enterprises, Russia’s woolen mills are reported to have shut down for a period on account of scarcity of raw materials, Flax mills closed for a month or six weeks for the same reason. Simultaneously, however, the commissariat for trade has ordered a 10 per cent reduction of prices, *Some mills have obeyed, but have decreased the width of materials or reduced the quality of their goods. According to German reports, the most promising field for the foreigner in Russia today is as a buyer of local produce. Concessions have proved money losers, and attempts to sell goods to Russia are defeated By the long term credits demanded by the government trading bureau.—The Living Age.

CHANGES OF NOTE ON BRITISH FARMS A clear idea of the vast importance of agriculture in England and Wales is provided by the census relating to the year 1925, that has recently been issued by the ministery of agriculture, writes the London correspondent of the Christian Science Monitor, The present census shows that the value of agricultural land and buildings in England and Wales amounts to £815,000,000; that a further £365,000,000 is represented by working capital on farms, giving a total of £1,800,000,000 (roughly $5,800,000,000) invested in agriculture. The last agricultural census of England and Wales was taken in 1908, since which time changes of the most far-reaching -character have taken place in English agriculture, The present census, however, is far more comprehensive than was that taken in 1908. and for this reason comparison between present conditions and those existing 17 years ago are not possible In every particular.

Artist Feit Need of Getting Back to Earth I fortified myself with a great many excellent sounding reasons for going into the pigeon-farming business, To begin with, every man should have an anchor to windward, and the drawback to a profession lay in the fact that when you ceased laboring you most likely ceased eating simultaneously. Then a man in my confining profession—l draw pictures for a living—felt the need of getting’ back to the earth, you know, This sitting on a stool all day paintIng pretty girls is a bit cloying after a time. It Is like dining exclusively on chocolate eclairs, I have seen the time when I would stop dead in the middle of the street to gaze in admiration at some passer-by because she was so ugly. I craved corn beef and cabbage and honest sweat and men—horny handed, vulgar, profane, tobacco-chewing men—and - brown earth and growing things. All these were to be had on a farm, I felt.— Coles Phillips, in the Saturday Evening Post. .

s & uessed Wrong The topic of the Garvanza school one day was “Preparing for the Future,” and the little ones were duly impressed with the fact that advance work of any kind was a very desirable practice. All but little Johnny. “My father an’ mother,” he declared, “say you never can tell how things are gonna turn out an’ there's no use trying. to plan ahead. Why, only last week, when the baby came, they found they had to change her name from Mary to James.”

Too Bad : : Sacha Guitry, the French actor and playwright, said on -departing from New York: “The movies are ruining the theaters. It's too bad. “A comedian said to a tragedian over a sandwich in one of your cafeterias the other day: “‘l hear that the crowd hissed you off the stage at the Galety last night. *“*A lie, my boy,” said the tragedian. ‘A miserable lie. There was no crowd.””
