The Value of Beauty


EVERY WOMAN knows the true value of attractiveness- the beautiful maiden or the charming woman has no equal. Perfect beauty signifies perfect health. Many a woman la- ments the fact that she is lacking in those attributes which make her supreme-and yet is it not largely her own fault?


FOR THE FIGURE-why should not any woman bring out all the perfections and conceal the imperfections of her figure 7 by one of our Gossard Front -- Lacing Corsets. When we have correctly fitted your figure your gown will be given both added style and beauty.


FOR THE FACE-Wrinkles, skin troubles, blemishes-all fade before our Buena Tonic. It acts as a food and tonic to" the pores of the skin and brings the blush of beauty to the cheek.


THE PATH TO BEAUTY is short. Consult us today. Let us show you the way-added attractiveness will quickly re- pay you.

BUTTER AND MILK


ARE ESSENTIALS IN EVERY HOUSEHOLD.


ARE YOU A PRODUCER


-OR- Only a Consumer.


IN EITHER CASE THIS INTERESTS YOU.


The White River Creamery Co., Muncie, Ind., is completing a large, modern, pure Pasteurized Cream Butter Manufacturing Plant at about even date with the issuance of this Directory.


This opens up another market for Cream, and especially inter- ests the producer, because the plan on which it is operated enables the payment of the highest price for Butter Fat, and the greatest net returns for the man who milks.


`The up-to-date equipment in this plant is of especial interest to the consumer and the lover of good butter, because nothing has been ommitted that could in any way add to the quality. The Cream is carefully selected and then Pasteurized and Ripened under the most favorable conditions made possible by especially con- structed machinery for regulating temperature.


A CORDIAL WELCOME


Awaits every visitor. It is always a pleasure to show and explain our Factory.


All communications promptly answered.


You will be well rewarded for visiting or writing.


Co-operation and "the greatest good to the greatest number" our motto.

Y OU will find it to your advantage to consult us when in need of engrav- ings of machinery or other mechanical work, either perspective, sectional, X-Ray (or ghost) views, or any combination of these.


While good photographs are always desirable copy to work from, it frequently happens that cuts must be made of machines which are in the course of construction, or that the conditions are such that it is impossible to get photographs. Under these conditions our knowledge of mechanics enables us to make suitable drawings from blue prints, linen tracings or rough pencil sketches, from which strictly first class halftones may be made.
