AN APPLE A BARREL
“How much cider did you make
this year?” inquired one farmer of
another who had offered him a sam
ple for trial.
“Fifteen bar’ls,” was the answer.
The first man took another sip.
“I reckon, Si,” he drawled, “ef
you’d had another apple you might
ha’ made another bar’l.”
On His Guard
“I see you always wear a smiling
countenance.”'
“Yes,” answered Senator Sor
ghum, a little wearily. “1 have to.
There is no tilling what moment the
candid camera might turn up.”
• Children
Children, says a psychologist,
shouldn’t perform on the radio. So
many, it seems, grow up and be
come adults who shouldn’t either.

Singleton—I suppose your wife has

Practical Pinafore
That Will Stay Put
T^HIS pinafore apron (1876) will
be a great favorite with every
body in the sewing circle—it’s the
most useful kind you can have!
It goes on in a jiffy—not even a
sash to tie! It covers both the
top and the skirt of your dress
thoroughly. It won’t slip off the
shoulders. It has two capacious
patch pockets that you will find
mighty handy.
Buttons and bright piping give
it a gay touch; it’s prettily small
at the waist and flared at the
skirt. Best of all, it’s so easy to
make that you can turn it out in
a few hours. Send for the pat
tern today, and make half a dozen
aprons like this, so that you’ll al
ways have one ready to put on,
fresh and clean. It’s nice for gifts
and club or church sales, too.
Make it of gingham, percale,
chintz or linen, in cheerful prints
or plain colors.
No. 1876 is designed for sizes
32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, and 44. Size
34 requires 2% yards of 35-inch
material; 2 yards bias binding to
trim.
Send your order to The Sewing
Circle Pattern Dept., Room 1324,
211 W. Wacker Dr., Chicago, 111.
Price of pattern, 15 cents (in
coins).
