rJ. D. C. GRAHAM
CRACKERS
You don't hive to coax tbs children
to eat plenty of N. B. C. Graham
Cracker. These are not only rich in
the nourishment that builds bone and
muscle but their tempting taste makes
the little appetites hungry for more.
N. B. C. Graham Crackers added
an Individuality and nut-like flavor
that other graham crackers lacked.
This makes them an almost unlver-
sally popular article of everyday diet.

garment has nothing in common with the sale price
Just SO Suits In
This Sale to Clear
They are all we have left just ."0 suits. The .sizes are 16 18 3f
only. Surely the demand at the three juices quoted will soon absorb
the bunch. Values were never more appealing since the advent of
women's ready-to-wear.
Some of these suits have collars of mole and Hudson seal. Think
of that! They are exceptionally good suits mind you. Colors are navy
green plum and Hurgundy. Never before has such value-for-the-money

MARY BRACKUS MARY SMITH'S SUCCESSOR
Ave I'llliUKfi
Father Never Good to Her
Chicago Girl Gladly Prom-
ises She Never Will Wed
By Leola Allard.
CHICAGO. Jan. 21-The Pankhurst.
have achieved another Mary I Out ol
J.IM.Wyoiuik women who wrote they
wanted to take the place of Marv Smith
and he the laui(htcr and the $10O(KKI
heiress of the Anihov farm. Aunt
l.ouina and .l ucle Jimmy chose Mary
Hraekus of ( Incauo She is all settled
in Marv Smith's place and she is a
faseinatiiiK person 24 years old with
Mack hair and Madonna eves.
The Only Investifation. '
'I he ipivcrmncnt didn't have a tiling
to do w ith tins selection. There wasn't
a reference except Mary's letter and
her photograph. There wasn't an in-
estimation except that made by the
ees of Aunt Louisa and the report
was "She'll do."
Seamsttesa From Austria.
Mary- the new Man is a pretty
seamstress from Austria. She hasn't
any family in this country. She earned
$12 a week sewing in a Chicago dress-
making estahlislmient and she hoard-
ed on I'.llis avenue. " ller hoard an I
room cust Mary $8. At the AiiiImiv
farm she will get $.1 a week and later
$4. And when the Pankhursts die the
new Mary will get all thlt the first
Mary would have goiten. Mary has
a mother somewhere in Austria ller
father and lirnthrr weren't good to her
or to hrr mother so she doesn't think
very much of them She promised Rlad
ly never to marry.
Letters hundreds of them kept com-
iiiu to the Pankhursts when Mary
Smith after a year's trial gane up the
farm at Amhoy.
The Letter That Won.
Then came this letter from Mary
Drackus :
Mv Dear Mrs Pankhurst:
I have hern reading ahout Marv
Smith leaving the farm and
thought inavhc you would let me
come to take her plare if you have
not already found some one (hen
you will have another Mary. I ant
sure I will he glad to stav there
forever for while I live in the city
1 am not used to city life I know
none of the pleasuirs and pastimes
that scent ' to have d'awn Mary
Smith hack to the city.
1 came to America four rars ago
from Austria. I speak (irrman and
I'jiglish well enough to mulct stand
everything that it is ucecssatv for
ntc to know. - I ran keep house well
and like to work outdoors ami in
and I ran also sew and do niie
work in dressmaking.
I am sending you a little picture
of myself the only one I have If
you have some one else please re-
turn it will you as I want to have
some made from this? Now what-
ever else you wish to know I will
write it later as I will await your
reply and remain sinrcrelv.
MAKY ItKACM'S.
When Mary Hraekus .found her wav
out of lonesome Chicago she hadn't
known much ahout plenty. It took
pretty nearly allshe made to get along
She made her own clothes and she
is unusually pretty and looks well in
them hut she was poor. Pood seemed
to he unite a prohlcm.
New Welworth Blouses at $2.00
The same economy effecting methods that have been re-
sponsible for the wonderful values in the Wirthmor also account
for Ttoe splendid values in the Welworth which has tome to
be regarded as the highest type of Blouse that can be made to
sell at two dollars. Kvery woman it seems who has ever bought
one Welworth has bought them repeatedly thereafter a tes-
timonial to their unusual worth and the general satisfaction that
their wearing affords.
There's just a limited number of these new Wei
worth for tomorrow's selline. and no more of the LK
same styles will be obtainable. I
