MADAME BUTTERFLY
ROSE TO BE POPULAR
-♦ . —
SPRINGFIELD, Ohio, May 1 (by As
sociated Press).—Followers of styles'
•
in landscape gardening will plant the
“Madame Butterfly” rose this spring—
it is the latest creation in the rose
world. Millions of “Madame Butter
fly” plants were grown this year by
Springfield florists, the lajgest grow
ers of pot flowers in the world.
“Madame Butterfly” is an ever
blooming, single-stemmed flower, and
is declared to be very beautiful, ’tfears
of cultivation and care were required
to produce “Madame Butterfly” before
it Avas declared perfect enough to mar
ket. The rose is what florists and rose
lovers call a sport. While it is sup
posed to groAv a deep rose pink flower
primarily, it is just as likely to grow
half a dozen other shades equally as
beautiful.

ITATIO
Men are seeing dimly the failure of
their old ideals. A century ago they
built high hopes on the “rights of
man" and the “rights of nations.” The
first were secured by good laws and
institutions; second, by well-balanced
treaties. What happened? Every
man for himself; capital against labor
and labor against capitl; nation
against nation in a trade battle. In
holding fast to our ‘rights’ we lost
sight of our duties, and especially the
duty of service and sacrifice. We fail
to realize the dominion of Christ in
history, but when man is aroused and
feels touch of that infinite hand he
realizes that things are temporal. He
is not satisfied, nor very happy, sin
becomes real, the eternal is full of
voices calling mankind up to a higher
plane of existence—Christianized civ
ilization.

WE ARE THE LARGEST DEALERS IN RAW AND MANUFACTURED
FURS IN THE NORTHWEST, and all we ask of you, Mr. Shipper, is to give
us the chance of a trial shipment and we will convince you that we pay more
for furs and make quicker returns than you can get anywhere in the country.
We have been in business in Alaska for 36 years and have built up a very
extensive trade. We sell manufactured furs in all parts of the United States,
Canada, and in a great many European cities.
By shipping to us you are not only helping an Alaska industry but you hre
helping yourself to build up a business that belongs to Alaska.
We eliminate the middleman entirely, as we buy direct from the trapper and
trader and sell direct to the consumer; thus we are able to pay you a better
price than you can get elsewhere. WE MAKE RETURNS THE SAME DAY
SHIPMENT IS RECEIVED.
If so desired, when your shipment amounts to $100 or morfe, we will wire our
bid, and if not entirely satisfactory you may wire at our expense and we will
ship to any place you designate.
All we ask of you is to be fair with yourself as well as with us, and make us
a trial shipment; the result will make you a steady shipper.

It’s Time to
Change
I o understand the comfort of good Under- g
wear a man must feel the uplift of Under
jj wear that fits because it’s cut right. It
■ must fit snugly but not too much so, and |j
jj the lines on which it is cut should conform gj
H to the natural lines of the figure.
|J These medium-weight Union Suits have gj
IF' no equal for early spring comfort for body 1
I and mind. They’ll wear without wearing |j
out before you’re ready to change to the I
hot-weather “athletics.” The time to
§g change is now.
