City Water Supply 
for Country Homes 
You can have just as efficient 
water supply in the country as in 
the city, with the Kewanee System.

quirements can be met with the 
Water Supply System 
The Kewanee is the original air 
pressure system, giving an abun¬ 
dant supply of water under strong 
pressure for bathroom, kitchen, 
laundry, garage, garden, barns and

freeze in winter and become stag¬ 
nant in summer. Exceedingly sim¬ 
ple to operate and absolutely 
trouble-proof. Ready for a life¬ 
time of unexcelled service as soon

Amusing women read VANITY FAIR 
because it keeps them au courant of all the things one 
talks about—the gossip of the theatre and opera— 
the new movements in arts and letters—the latest in 
sports and salons-—the smartest in dogs and motors 
—the gayest in dances and fashions—the latest tip 
on where to dine, to dance, to drop in for cigarettes, 
coffee and celebrities. 
Clever men read VANITY FAIR 
because it knows the world, and loves it, and laughs 
at it. Because it is too witty to be foolish and alto¬ 
gether too wise to be wise. Because it isn’t afraid to 
buy the best work of our young writers, artists and 
dramatists. And because it prints such adorable 
pictures of Mrs. Vernon Castle. 
The most successful of the new magazines 
Take your favorite theatrical magazine; add your 
favorite humorous periodical; stir in The Stretch and 
The Taller of London; pour in one or two reviews of 
modern art; sprinkle with a few indoor dances and 
outdoor sports; dash with a French flavoring; mix 
in a hundred or so photographs, portraits, and 
sketches; add a dozen useful departments; throw 
in a magazine of fashion and one of literature; season 
with the fripperies and vanities of New York—and 
you will have VANITY FAIR. 
If you would be “in the movement” 
dance the newest dance a month before It becomes 
popular; dine in Bohemia before it realizes it is 
Bohemia and charges admission; know what to see 
at the theatre, hear at the opera, buy at the book¬ 
shop, and on no account miss at the galleries—fill in 
and send in the coupon for six months of VANITY 
FAIR, at $1. 
Just say to yourself 
"/ owe it to my family and friends to go 
through life with my mind open; to keep 
my sympathies warm; to remain in con-- 
stant touch with the newest and liveliest 
influences in life. I won*t be stodgy! / 
won*t be provincial! / refuse to become — 
whether intellectually or socially—a blight 
at luncheon. I won*t kill a dinner party 
stone dead ten minutes before the entree. 
Therefore, / will risk a single dollar and 
subscribe to Vanity Fair.**
