Puff Cheeks and Charity

I

By BILL ADAMS

T'S mighty easy for one man to criticise another. It's the easiest

thing there is. I don't want to criticise any one; but a fellow's got to tell what's so, just as he sees it. If you think this tale is faked, you're wrong. It's gospel.

Puff Cheeks and I used to have elegant arguments. Elegant is a slang word, but I like it sometimes. Mostly I like good English; but if you mix up with all sorts of people, you have got to know their lingo or you can't talk with them without their thinking you a highbrow.

Puff Cheeks wasn't his real name. A small girl of my acquaintance named him So. He was plump and round-faced; a rosy little middle-aged man with a friendly smile.

Puff was a preacher. He told me once when I asked him, because I wanted to know just what his idea on the matter was, that the streets of heaven were paved with shining gold. I don't like that. I don't look forward to smoked glasses and horn rims to the end of time.

When last I saw Puff Cheeks, it was in the basement of his church. I was a cop at the time, on night duty-six to six. It was winter. The basement was brightly lighted, and a large wood-stove was going full blast. Puff was walking up and down, rubbing his hands and smiling all over. At little tables all around were women who were making check-gingham aprons for the Eskimos. It was some sort of a missionary society meeting.

Puff beamed when he saw me come down the cement steps into the basement. Then he stared, sort of surprised. There was a queer-looking young man at my back, a fellow I'd found trying to sleep in a draughty, damp shed.

For a month or so I'd been having it up and down with Puff Cheeks. I'd attended three revival meetings at his place of business, and he was disappointed that I hadn't got religion. He used to say, "It's high time you got off the fence and joined the church." It was no use for me to tell him that the fence was a church too. Stars up above didn't mean anything to him. He was one of that sort of men who must worship under a roof and in a crowd. But I always liked old Puff. He meant all right. Most folks do. I do myself. A fellow has at best.

3-in-One

The High Quality Shaving Oil

After wiping blade, draw between thumb and finger previously moistened with 3-in-One. The oil will displace any invisible moisture or lather left between the teeth and protect from moisture in the air. When next you use that blade-a day, a week later-it will be just as keen as when you put it away.

To keep your strop pliable and make it take hold of your razor better, rub in a few drops of 3-in-One occasionally.

FREE-Special circular, "A Razor Saver for Every Shaver," and generous sample of 3-in-One; also Dictionary of Uses, free on request. Use a postal.

3-in-One is sold at all good stores in 1-oz., 3-oz., and 1⁄2 pt. bottles and in 3-oz. Handy Oil Cans.
