There's a hidden spring, unique in de- sign, that makes misfiring practically im- possible; there’s a hidden tube that pro- tects the wheel and flint from moisture when filling; there’s the wick itself— not of fuzzy cotton but of durable asbestos. These are a few only of the striking im- provements that make the EVANS Automatic the greatest advance in de- sign, construction and performance ever embodied in a lighter. a Dae ee a: =e $5.00 to $22.50 at your jeweler's.

A PLEA FOR FAIR PLAY THE BAseBALL wizardry of John (Mugs) McGraw Is but seldom referred to as McGravian, While the antics and the prankings of Harry K. Thaw Are scarcely ever classified as Thavian. Why then should every trifle—when it’s George Bernard Shaw— Be so fulsomely advertised as Shavian? C. Knapp. Keep that morning SPARKLE Isn’r it a grand, fine feeling to come from the shower, singing, to stow away a hearty breakfast, and light up for the first smoke? You feel sparkling all over. But —do you keep that morning sparkle? Just about noontime, lo you find that smoking, at least, isn’t quite as pleasurable? There’s a preventive for a waning smoke appetite— Squibb’s Dental Cream. Squibb’s puts the sparkle in your mouth and keeps it there. The minute, clinging particles of its Milk of Magnesia swallow up mouth acids at The Danger Line, and keep your mouth brisk and fit, your breath always pleasant. Use Squibb’s in the morning and evening, anyway. At any other time during the day when you can. 40c at any druggist’s. Copyright 1928 by E. R. Squibb & Sons GUARD THE DANGER LINE comicbooks.com
