McCourt roll label cabinets are made in all sizesfor a few stock labels-or the very largest assortment. Each compartment holds a roll of 500 McCourt labelsalphabetically arranged.

To registered druggists who are not familiar with the advantages of roll labels, the manufacturers will send a roll of 500 blank shop labels with convenient cardboard cabinet for 20 cents in stamps (to cover cost of handling and mailing). The company will also send free of charge, upon request, two illustrated booklets describing McCourt cabinets and roll labels.

To take advantage of either or both of these offers address the McCourt Label Cabinet Co., 47 Bennett Street, Bradford, Pa.

The system quickly and permanently stops "leaks" whether from dishonesty or carelessness. It provides a clean check for every customer and, in general, puts the checking system on a modern basis.

"MEN certainly do hang together," said Brown. "For instance, I have a friend who lives in a suburb where many wealthy folks live. Recently he had an automobile accident at a lonely spot on the road, where he found it impossible to reach a telephone to notify his wife.

"Now, it happened that he was happily married, very domesticated, and not accustomed to staying out at night. So at midnight his wife became very nervous.

She dispatched the following telegram to five of her husband's best friends in the city:

"Jack hasn't come home. Am worried. Is he spending the night with you?"

"Soon after this her husband arrived home and explained the cause of his delay. While he was talking a boy brought in five answers to her telegrams, all worded thus:

"Yes, Jack is spending the night with me."-Wire World.

THE Ambrosia Chocolate Co., Milwaukee, was the lowest bidder for supplying 40,000 pounds of cocoa for use in the United States navy and it is probable that the Milwaukee concern will be awarded the contract. The Ambrosia Company has been successful for a number of years in obtaining these contracts from the navy, due to the excellent quality of its products and the low price of its bids. Uncle Sam's sailor boys long since have discovered that Ambrosia cocoa is a most important item of their diet.

NO MATTER if your store is located in a town where electricity or gas is not available, you can still have a lighting system that is bright, clean, attractive and up to date.

The "Sun" hollow wire method of burning gasoline and "Sun" semi-indirect fixtures constitute a decorative, efficient and economical lighting system that is claimed to be cheaper and better than gas, electricity, acetylene or kerosene.

Druggists who have installed the "Sun" system find that not only is their own lighting problem solved but that they also have an excellent means of demonstrating the advantages of the system to prospective buyers.

Interesting information concerning the working of the "Sun" system as well as particulars of the opportunities which its sale holds out may be obtained from the Sun Light Co., 1611 Market Street, Canton, Ohio.

THE new curate had arrived just in time to take part in the morning service of a little church in Scotland. After the service was over and rector and curate had retired to the vestry, the old gentleman suggested

that the curate should accompany him to the rectory, and together they would have a "wee nip o' Scotch." The curate somewhat coldly replied that he was a total abstainer.

"Young mon," said the rector, "do ye no drink whusky?"

"No, sir," promptly replied the reverend gentleman. "Humph!" grunted the rector. "Do ye eat grass?" "No, sir, but

SOME years ago, when former Speaker Cannon was a plain member, he took some of his constituents to dine with him at a rather good hotel in Washington. It was in the fall and Mr. Cannon ate very heartily of that American edible, Indian corn; in fact, almost his entire dinner consisted of corn. The westerner looked at him and said: "Say, Mr. Cannon, what does it cost you to board here?"

"About $5 a day," said Mr. Cannon.

"I'll be durned," drawled his constituent, "ef I don't think it would be cheaper fer you to board at a livery stable."-Bagology.

DEWEY, discussing the naval battle of Skagerrack, said at a Washington luncheon:

"A naval officer, to succeed, must be very quickwitted and resourceful. In fact, he must be like Hamilton Footlites.

"Ham Footlites leaned on the rail of his sea-going yacht soliloquizing about love while the blue waves rolled and heaved splendidly, each blue wave being a super under a roll of canvas.

"But the waves were here and there threadbare, and suddenly a wave ripped, and a head bobbed up in the midst of the heaving sea, and stared around in bewildered fashion.

"Ham Footlites silenced the audience's titters with one stern glance.

"Man overboard!' he yelled in stentorian tones. "Then the super, managing to draw back his head through the hole in the wave, disappeared. Ham Footlites heaved a stormy sigh.

"Another victim seized by the relentless sea, alas!' he said."-Detroit Free Press.

that the gaseous method of inducing anesthesia has many advantages over the schemes formerly employed.

Dentists, too, are using nitrous-oxid-oxygen analgesia for the painless extraction and filling of teeth. There is a wide field of usefulness for the combination and many practitioners are adopting its administration as a routine procedure.

Oxygen, of itself, is a valuable aid that is used extensively by physicians in the treatment of pneumonia, diphtheria, heart failure, spasmodic asthma, phthisis, croup and other conditions when respiration is interfered with seriously.

The increasing demand for nitrous oxid and oxygen gases offers the druggist an excellent opportunity to add a profitable and ethical side-line; and all who are interested should write to the Oxygen Gas Company, Traders Building, Kansas City, Mo., for information concerning the possibilities held out by the line.

The Oxygen Gas Company furnishes oxygen and nitrous oxid in containers of various sizes and also supplies all equipment needed for the handling and administration of the gases.

"It's very simple," replied the elder woman. "I first select a good, honest butcher, and then I stand by him."

THERE'S a wide field for the sale of artist's materials and drawing and school supplies. Students taking up the various lines of work, either by attendance at professional schools or by correspondence, are in constant need of supplies; and the neighborhood drug store is the most logical and handiest place for them to turn to.

For catering to this demand Weber's supplies are the first choice of many druggists. The Weber line includes color paint boxes for amateurs and professionals; drawing instruments, in all grades, and at various prices; drawing boards; "T" squares; sets for mechanical drawing; water-proof drawing ink, etc.

Let F. Weber & Co., Philadelphia, explain the possibilities held out by the line. A postal card request will bring a price-list and other information.
