DAYS THAT HAVEPASSED

Days when the cave man swung a

stone ax instead of a finely tempered

steel weapon as we know it now.Days when the pony express dashed

over the plains carrying the mail,

instead of the airplanes and fasttrains as we have them.

Days when Uncle Phineas' old gray

mare Dobbin shied at an automobile.Days when mother toiled over a

hot stove in summer—a smoky stove,

a greasy stove, a stove that tiredher completely out and spoiled themeal for her. Yes, yes, it was a

good meal, but not to mother.These are the days that are passed.

A new day has come. Ask motherwhat she thinks of an electric range?

What could you do that would lighten

her load more than to get her a

range? An electric range can bebought on the installment plan.

Easy terms.Step out of the days that are

passed and enjoy the days that are

here with all their wealth for you.

You only live once in this old

world.
