The Junior Tattoo is a gem. Every twenty seconds for five.minutes its cheery call peals forth unless the silent switch is turned. It gently insists that you arise, without a rude jarring shock.

Every person whose opinion is worth regarding will be glad to know that a very liberal pension is paid to all who are entitled to it—that is, to those who are disabled as a result of their service during the war. The very frequent additions that have been made to the pension list were mainly electioneering devices of the so-called statesmen whom the un- thinking voters send to represent them in Congress, typified by Cannon and other smaller pieces of ordnance; some of whom claim the right to re- election because of the great number of private pension bills they have been able to have passed, donating the pub- lic money to persons who were not legally entitled to it.

So hard that most of those who try it fail, and either go out of business or “do like the rest of them” and cut the quality. So hard that we (my partners and I) went without @ profit for five years, and put tens of thou- sandsof dollarsinto the business, in order to keep up the quality and build the business to a volume which would leave us a net profit out of the mighty small gross margin in a quality cigaret. I have always believed thatif we produced the quality, the public would produce the sales. And that faith has been justified. Our advertising is intended and our salesmen are instructed to produce public confidence rather than sales. If we can do that the sales will take care of themselves. You will always find in MAKAROFF RUSSIAN CIGARETS a quality that corresponds with the straightforwardness of the advertising. We have now introduced the goods so thoroughly to dealers that you can get them almost anywhere in the best cigar stores, hotels, cafes, dining cars, etc. Any dealer who hasn't got them can get them quickly from his local jobber. If he docsn’t want to, we will supply. you Promptly. by mail, on receipt of the dealer's name and address, or simply his address, eo that we may investigate his reason for refusal. If you do not like these cigarets at the first trial. remember that they are mighty different from what you are accustomed to, and that the difference Is allin your favor. Take time to get a little used to them and you will find out just what we mean, Makaroffs are absolutely pure, clean, sweet, mild fobaeco, untouched by anything whatever to sive them artificial flavor, sweetness, or to make them burn, You will find that you can smoke as many as you want of them without any of the nervousness, depression or “craving " that follows the use of ordinary cigarets. Pure tobacco won't hurt you. You may not be used toit, and you may not like the first Makaroff, but you'll like the second one better. and you'll stick to Makaroffs forever if you once give them a fair chance. We have built this business on quality in the goods and intelligence in the smoker—a combination that simpiy can't lose, We waited quite a while, but it has won in our case and won big.

Things Coming Dear Lire: The writer is one of the ramblers, a searcher of markets and a disposer of goods. At present the market is quiet, and having perused your Social- ist number the writer began to think what sort of a list he could make of what the people want—not the capital- ist or the Socialist, but the mean be- tween those extremes. (Continued on page sso) looked on as a great honor, but many wear its badge who are only what the real old soldiers call “coffee coolers,” and take advantage of their position to assist cach other to grab pensions, and the rightful members owe it to themselves and to the order to see that such persons who bring discredit on the organization are promptly weeded out.
