I WILLARD The Battery that Never Fails You Winter or Summer. i 2 Why We Don't Handle Cheap and Second Hand Batteries We could handle cheap and second hand and rebuilt batteries if we wished to go into that business, but confine our business to selling standard new Willard Batteries because we know they wilt give service which will build our business from year to year. We started out with that basis to our business and our progress has justified our judgment. We know that atv auto owner who has battery trouble, 1ms the most aggravating automobile trouble there is.

We protect such owners from that aggravation by selling him a Willarc! Ilatlery. That alone minimizes tins aggravating trouble. There is little difference between the cost of a WILLARD AH Rubber Battery and the cheap batteries offered you. Why not buy a Wiflard? The Willard Battery and Willard Service Cheapest in the Long Run Why It Pays You to Buy a Good I New Battery. And there is a good reason why you should buy a good new battery instead of a second hand or rebuilt or a cheap battery.

A rebuilt or second hand battery and likewise the chep battery that carries no guarantee, will in all liklihood start giving you trouble within a few weeks. In a winter like the one we have just had, with the thermometer down to fifteen degrees below zero, where were the cheap batteries when you stepped on the starter, 'fhe man who had one knows, he probably had to get out and crank by hand, at fifteen below zero, when wanking was hard. At that particular time he would have-tjadly paid the dollar or a few cents more for one of those always reliable Willard Batteries. Make Marmalade From Red Rose flower marmalades nre of two kinds, The Turks nso tho choice Damascus whlto rose, the the large red rose corresponding io our Beauty. TJie vehicle of preservation may be virgin honey, common In China, or the dnte of the palm or Imfl In vogue from the Bospho- rus to the Nile delta, Tho fragrance of the rose marmalade Is not that -of the freshly pinched rose, but resembles more the modified fragrance from bios-, som a dny or two old.

It comes In sealed containers or crocks holding approximately five pounds, which on opening are found to be something little more than two- thirds full. This Is due to the contents having been stenm-ster- Illzed at a minimum of hent, after the sealing of the container; It is purposely never filled, so as to allow for heat expansion of the contents and thus prevent fracture of the container. Also, the rose fragrance Is Uins retained.In almost all Its Newg.
