Show I What would you do hi his place? The steeplejack lights his pipe and goes on painting Imagine, if you can, a steeplejack 437 feet above the street level. Hanging Hang-ing on by his teeth he Is applying a more or less rough-and-ready coat of paint to a flagpole. It may seem foolish that a flagpole 487 feet in the afr should need a coat of paint; but anyway, that's the case. Right in the midst of a busy morning's morn-ing's painting an adventurous bee buzzes into the picture. In fact, there are two bees, both buzzing viciously. What should the steeplejack do? There being in the profession no local rules for buzaing bees, your average steeplejack probably would get the all-clear signal from below and slide promptly down to safety. - But not Our Hero. He takes out his pipe, lights it, and goes on painting. "It soothes the nerves," he says frankly about pipe smoking. And, by the way, although there are only twenty-five genuine, no-scaffold no-scaffold steeplejacks in the country, Our Hero is one of them. We have no way of knowing what kind of tobacco the steeplejack pours into his pipe on these bee-buzzing occasions, oc-casions, but we have a feeling that it is Edgeworth. For Edgeworth does much to give the smoker a sense of calm and peaceful security. - s Of course, we Ctrrr-iD wouldn't care to go j . t on record as claim- (Gublfe can of Edgeworth is fioJcfiW 'ttl as good as a two i' REAJjy-RUBEtP' J week3' rest cure in siiy the mountains; but we v,ould like t0 L-zrV vVfttt". register very H strongly the opin-pyiSsJM opin-pyiSsJM ion that smoking U?G any pipe makes vfitYijr e seem more worth living and that smoking a-pipe a-pipe filled with Edgeworth helps a lot.
