Because of his eyesight having been seriously strpined at the end of the half hour, he was unable to give any figures on the number he had seen “rolled down.” —Already “Rolled Down”— It Might Be, at That “Liberty in Jail,” says a headline in a Twin City newspaper, but upon reading further we find that said Lib-|* erty is a man charged with having taken the ‘liberty” of snutchmg a purse from. a young lady in Minne- apolis. —That Makes It Different— One Way to Find Out A man in Terribone, Minn., re cently struck a match to find out if | he had.snfficient gasoline in a pail to start a fire.

Yoa might meet with an accident. You know,| somebody might ask you to have a| drink of liquor and you wouldn’t hear it. Don’t_eat anything you can't lift,| for you'll never get away with it. In the cool of the evening, don’t speak to your wife for she may make it hot for you. —Avoid Overcoats— Who Can It Be? A theater in an eastern city is ad- vertising a picture, “The Woman God Changed.” One curious individual wants to know if there is any chance that the theater means Lot's wife. This should be taken with a grain of salt. —If Thou Taketh At All— DUXBURY WOULD REDUCE ERICES ON REAL ESTATE fContinned From Page 1) cent of hig purchase during the’ first three years, I think you will all agree that.he has more than doubled the value'cf the lund purchased.

Sale made to the buyer wih limited means should provide clauses similar to the following: If he enters upon the land and builds a set of farm buildingy during the first year and establishes his residence thereon, the first annual payment should be ex- tenided. The second year he should be required to clear at least one-eighth of his purchase, and if so, the second annual payment should he extended? “The third’ year, another eighth, making 1n all cne-fourth of his Jang under cultivation, when he ‘has ‘ac- complished the above improve- ments, if the value of them together with hig buildings, fencing, wells and etec., 18 equal in value to the indehter ness against the land, he should b given a deed and a mortgage taken for the balance due on or before five years from that date. “You will readily admit that with 26 per cent of the land cleared, his other improvements would mot have to be very valuable to have the total fmprovement equal three-fourths of the original purchase price. 3 ““This plan of contract fis beneficial to ‘the fee holder because, if it's com- plied with, the holder has cashed his | - land in three years, has a mortgage on the land, thus improved shculd be cmnmerch\l and is, in normal times. “I hold that many hundreds of .settlers we have lost in northern Min- nesota would: have heen prosperous, happy families today, had they been given an even c¢hance {0’ win. “You men from the high ‘priced land must look to thé north for your next big rea] estate business.

Busliness 1s its stake, No other game has greater zest or importance. Too many business men play it carelessly. Competition s the. great instructor. Run - your- eyes .over .the.advertise- ments of today and you will find them showing & skill and ingennity well deserving the name of art. The titles read like news-heads and have the appeal of news. The copy is terse and readable., It tells people unmistakably how ‘they can ‘economize; where they can buy.the best. goods for the least money and with the least inconven- lence to themseives. ~ Everyone wants to economize -now. The advertisement which ddesnot pramise economy might as well not be written. We see a Judicious-use of space and appropriateness of display that makes each modern good advertisement a classic. If one should compare them with those that were set a few years ago he would be surprised at the im- provement. And yet there are slovenly advertise- ments still, advertisements which merely take room and exhibit the backwardness. of .those who pay for them. The best skill in any game Is only attained by trained experts. Others may have good ideas and flashes of luck. But only the expert knows how to use good ideas for the maximum of result without relylng on luck.—New York Mail, TOOK THE KISS SERIOUSLY According to French Scientist, the Ro- mans ‘Had Three Distinct Ways of Specifying It.

Thelr physiological wealth in this re- gard, is an added proof. Without counting the dinminutives, they had three words specifying the kiss: The osculum corresponds to what we should call the kiss of friendship; the basium, mote tender, was the kiss of relatives, and of husband and wife; finglly, the savium applied to the kisges of lovers.” Turk as a “Goat Herder.” The famous goat herder of primitive countries who sells his milk by the jar or cup frem the goat skin bag on his back has his modern prototype in the person of a chap who appeared cn the Bowery said the New York Sun. Slung over his shoulder was a large white metal container similar in shape to the goat skin bag and from one end of which protruded a spigot. The top of the container was gayly festooned with flowers and flags and for three | cents the peddler would take a small paper cup from his pocket and draw a glass of milk for the thirsty youngster, or passerby.
