By a coincidence, while the work of recovering the bodies of victims from the wrecked troop ship, Oranto, was in progress, Hobert G. Walker, a Glasgow architect, arrived at the island to make a monument which the United States government has planned as a memorial for the Tuscanla's dead. Mr. Walker, whose designs for the monument were approved several weeks ago,, said that construction work could not be begun until next spring owing to the difficulty of transporting the stone, which is to be shipped here from Glasgow, over the rough country of the southern tip of Islay at the Mull of Oa. The monument Is to take the form of an obelisk about' fifty feet high. Standing on the cliffs, it will be visible on the skyline to all ships passing through that part of the Irish, sea. In view of the Otranto disaster, it is believed the U. S. government will include on the monument the names of the soldier victims from the Otranto aa well as from the Tuscania. If It Is decided to make the obelisk a Joint memorial, it will be a simple matter, according to Mr. Walker, to provide space for an inscription tablet for the names of the Otranto men. n

Money Back Guarantee Must Possess Real Merit. Money talks. The housewife should listen only to the claims of manufacturers who back their assertions with a money back guarantee. I have found in my years of Domestic Science work that manufacturers of meritorious products employ the money-back-if-not-satisfied policy of merchandising. Such manufacturers are deserving of the housewives'patronage and usually gtt it. . . - 1 No matter how good a manufacturer maytj7y .his product is if he lacks courage to offer a refund of purchase price, if buyer is not satisfied he displays a lack of faith in his goods. In such instances the purchaser assumes all risk and there is always risk, when the maker of merchandise refuses to stand by his goods with a money back guarantee. To make this point clear consider the advertising of a certain brand of baking powder. The producers of this baking powder abolish the uncertainty of buyers getting full money's worth as every can is sold under a clear cut guarantee of moaey-back-if-not-satisfied with bake day results. . Their advertisements state that their product is superior they say that it is unfailing in results pure in the can and in the food- and that it produces absolutely pure and wholesome bakings. Furthermore they assert that "You save when you buy it- and you save when you use it." The phrase is so familiar to the housewife, every one' no doubt will recognize it as taken from a Calumet Baking Powder advertisement. But to get back to my subject the importance of those printed words lies in the fact that the Calumet Baking Powder Co. put the proof before the housewife with positive bake day results. They invite her to buy Calumet on a money back trial basis. They demonstrate dependability with bake day results. They show her actual savings in real money. I have tested Calumet Baking Powder. The tests I conducted were far more exacting than could be made by the housewife and those tests have proved the truth of the Calumet Baking Powder Cc's contentions. No housewife can afford to refuse so liberal a proposition. All should give Calumet a trial and millions have done so. That it makes good its advertised promises is shown in the fact that housewives who put it to a test continue to use it. NOTE Miss CosteOo is already well known to most of the ladies of our city.
