Play the ILVER PLAY THE KING,” said Archie Compston, “for the length ther'’s in the ball. And th’ way it takes a drubbin’ and comes out with a whole hide would appeal to the soul of a Scotsman! A good part o’ golf is mental and the King is a breeder of golfin’ confidence.” Most golfers find that they get 15 to 25 yards farther when they play this best of all good golf balls.

H. Doughty, a furniture dealer of Green- ville, Tenn. Read what he writes: Larus & Bro. Co., Richmond, Va. My dear Sirs: For twenty years I have been engaged in retailing furniture, On rainy days my partner and I call up some of our friends and invite them down to a little poker game. In this melange of our selection there happened to be a fellow by the name of Austine—a tobacco dealer. This fellow Austine was a most consistent loser—but losing never seemed to affect his morale. His conduct became a study with me. My winning and losi I moods were re- flected in my action: When winning I was the good fellow. When losing I was the grouch. All this time I noticed Mr. Austine, the tobacco dealer, sitting back unperturbed, pulling away on his pipe contented—winning or losing. Finally I put the matter up to Mr. Austine for a solution. He said, “Major (my poker title by brevet), there is no mystery to that—my contentment is due to the tobacco I smoke. When I need a friend in poker or business—Edgeworth has never failed me. It carries content- ment in every. <i draw—whether the cards run good or bad. The next time I visited the Mason Corner Tobacco Shop I purchased some of this Edgeworth. It has made a new man out of me. I can look them in the face and smile—smile—smile whether they run good or bad. Sincerely, W. H. Doughty.
