The Tartars Had Literary Tastes ry,HE lowly and uncultured Tartars when books fell into their possession ate them to acquire the knowledge contained therein. They doubtless suffered indigestion. At least, they weren't overlooking any bet. There are mistakes both of commission and omission. Better, by far, to be satisfied that you have done your best and endure indigestion, than overlook real opportunities and feel the pangs of unavailing regret The advertisements you will find in this newspaper are business mines of opportunity. They tell you of values you might never know, if they were not there to guide you. Do you read and digest this advertising? Figuratively speaking, some folks "eat it up." They are the wise shoppers the economical buyers the ones who are strictly up to Hate on the opportunities for saving money or spending it most judiciously. Read the advertisements. Read them to know what's what in the shopping district. Read them to save steps to save money to save disappointments, Read them because .they place before your eyes a moving panorama of business progress. Read them to keep yourself informed. Read Them Regularly It Pays!

What DafcVmen SwtMoa

(NaUoaal Crop Improvement Bervlca. 4( f T IS surprising that while the I government and ail of the agricultural oollogea have printed so much valuable information regarding agriculture in all its phases, only a very few larmerB or dairymen attempt to keep up with scientific reading, although it may be had for the asking. "Knowledge passes from farm to farm, according to the practice in that locality. As Josh Billings says, "What's the use of knowing so many things if they ain't so?' And yet this is exactly the state of affair in almost every neighborhood. A thing is true or not true according to the popular viewpoint," says Mr. Frank Baackes, Vice President, American Steel Wire Company. The agricultural colleges and the government both furnish information to the press, but the press is handicapped and cannot run exhaustive arguments or expositions of any subject at length because that is not what newspapers sre for. Editors cannot use long articles as a rule. "o what is the best way to get this information into the hands of the man for whom it is written? Cut in 7 sizes: 34. 36. 38, 40. 42. 44 and 46 inches bust measure. A 38 in. size requires 64 yards of 36-lnch material. The width of the skirt at the lower edge ia about 1 3-4 yards. Tbe price Is 12 cents. Famous French Soldier. Antoine de la Jlothe Cadillac was a famous French military officer and explorer and the founder of Detroit. He was born bout the year 16C0 and died la 1730. Ills landing on the site of the present city of Detroit was made July 24, 1701. After founding the settlement, be remained thereuntil 1711. He was later governor of Loulsl. ana for five years, returning to France, irbere he died. First United States Coins. The first United States coins wert Issued in 1703. The Constitution conferred upon congress the power to coin money and regulate its value. A mint was established In Philadelphia In 1702, and the following year the first coics were struck.

"In the old days the farmer always used to get an almanac which too often contained only biased information and a few antiquated jesta. But the farmer wanted the almanac so that he could know about the phases of the moon, by which a great deal of fanning is still conducted. "The great corporations have learned that unless the farmer is prosperous and has money large sales will be impossible, so therefore the problem now is how can the farmer be induced to make money just that the fanner must have money before he can spend it. So intelligent business men are subordinating the advertising of the goods which they sell and are doing everything possible to et the information of those scientific men into the hands of the man who can practically use it. "There is a right way and a wrong way to farm. Every man is entitled to the best information there is and therefore I believe that all of the scientific men who are devoting their livea to the study of these subjects should be encouraged to write upon them and every possible means employed to net this information into the hands of the man who needs it most." Japanese Marriage Laws. The legal restrictions on the aga at which a person can marry ara different between men and women, according to the civil code of Japan, Wen must be above 17 and women 15 years. There can be no marriage without the voluntary agreement ef the man and woman when a marriage is to be contracted. If they have parents living they must obtain their consent, unless the man hag completed his thirtieth year and the woman her twenty-fifth. Think Thfs Over. "De man dat insists on havtn his own way," said Uncle Eben. "some, times winds up by bavin' dat an' not la" else." Lincoln Statue In London.
