HERS'S A CHEERING WAY
TO GREET LATE HOMECOMERS
When anyone at your home
comes home late, tired and chilled
from a bout with work and weath-
er, a cheering cup of coffee will
serve as a gracious welcome. And
no matter how late it is, there'll
be no cause- for sleeping worries
if you serve decaffeinated coffee.
The new kind , which dissolves In-
stantly in hot water, is a great
convenience. Just put a teaspoon
of instant decaffeinated coffee,
more or less according to the
strength desired, in a, cup, and add
boiling water. Your cheering brew
Is ready to serve, fresh and hot for
each newcomer; and there's no per-
colator to wash up afterwards,
' either.
The first "sympathetic" strike in
the United States occurred in 1799
when shoemakers, belonging to an
j organization known as the Federal
Society of Journeymen Cordwain-
\ ers, were compelled to lay down
' their tools In order to aid the- boot-
makers who were seeking an in-
j crease In wages.
