A hammer ig a most useful and necessary tool in the hands of a carpenter or anyone who has a legitimate use for it. With it you may drive a nail os bruise a finger. When one needs a hammer he needs it , badly. It is really a household necessity. To bring to the hammer is a । term often used when one is com--1 pelled to sell at auction his personal ; property. The carpenter then and the auctioneer a 8 well use the hammer. The miner uses a hammer to drive ' his drill. The circus man uses a I hammer to drive stakes for the I tent ropes. The stone-cutter uses it to guide his chisel. There is the riveting hammer, the tack hammer, blocking hammer, brick-layer s hammer, steam hammer, trip hammer. Hammers of stone are still found in the relics of antiquity and are still in use among barbarians. There is the piano hammer, the gun hammer and the dental hammer, the horseman's hammer, the blacksmith’s hammer and the forger’s hammer. There are more kinds of hammers than any thing else in the world. In mythology there is Thor’s hammer by the throwing of which thunder and lightning was caused. Everyone of these hammers even the mythological one, has some good and legitimate purpose, but there is just one hammer in the woyld that is the opposite of all these others, and that is the hammer which the professional knocker wields with such malicious and fatal results. That is one hammer which should forever be cast out from the line of ancestral hammers of fame and dignity. If you are toting a hammer like this, throw It away. Bury it so deep that you will have to go around on the other side, of the globe to resurrect it. This kind of hammer should never be used. The man who wickedly and wantonly wields the knocker's hammer should be forever silenced with a well directed blow on the head i with a sledge hammer. Boost—- ; don’t knock. . | CARRYING CONCEALED WEAPONS ! The national House of Represeni tatlves has passed a bill designed to ! prevent the transportation of deadly I weapons by mail. “Prohibiting tne . use of the mails for the transprtation of pistols and other firearms that, be concealed on the person," will not stop the traffic in those deadly weapons, of course. Other means will bw ! found for their distribution. Still. ! the action of the house in passing : a bill barring such weapons from the ■ mails is a step in the right direction. It puts the government on j record as opposed to the traffic In j pistols and at least discourages that I traffic. “Now, if business interests would follow’ the lead of one of the great । Chicago mail order houses and । cease selling pistols, the Country would well be on the way to relief i from the pistol menace. The handy | pistol is one of the causes of ou. । notorious murder record. Hundreds of men would not be behind prison I j bars today, and thousands of other I ; murderers who are free though ! guilty, would not have the blood •of their fellows upon their hands, ! had they not been in possession of ! a revolver in a moment of anger." It is, of course, impossible under I the present conditions, to prevent i those who want them from securing j deadly weapons, but there is no j doubt that the enforcement of wise j and proper legislation would greatly I restrict the number. If it could be ! made possible to get them through ,any or all the transportation agencies , the solution of the problem would j be brought very much nearer. j WORLD HISTORY IN THE MAKINGS. I Nineteen twenty-four will g o down as an epoch-making year In the world history because during that year the Dawes plan for the settlement of the World War repa- * rations was prepared and adopted. Inasmuch as three unofficial i American citizens have been given I credit for seeing the Dawes plan । through to a successful conclusion, it was a fitting tribute to the work of the Dawes committee that a testimonial dinner was given on Dec. 11 at the Waldorf Astoria hotel by the business men of New York, to Owen ! D. Young, the New York member ol । the committee. Mr. Young’s remarks jat this dinner, giving credit to all j । those who helped in the remarkable ! work of drawing up the Dawes । plan, except himself, are typical oz . the broad-minded American spirit , which evolved a plan so fair to all I nations that it was mpossible tor : ny country to reject it. The successful adoption of the Daw’es plan was due largely to the guiding hand of Mr. Young, who, by his unassuming manner and wise | counsel, made possible a meeting of | minds among various factions which iit was necessary to reconcile. The speech made by Mr. Young at this dnner will probably be the shortest and most concise statement regard-, ins the Dawes plan that will be recorded in history. NATURAL JOY. The real joys of life come from the natural forces of things rightly med. Artificial joys are never satisfying. Plain, simple foods gives s! ^ngth j and a feeling of elation and po., er. Foods mixed to tickle the palate and to make one overeat, leave one with an unsatisfied and distressed feeling. The joy comes from the pleasant sensation of taste Proper foods are tasteful, when properly eaten.

and leave one with the glow of health. The mingling of men and women in groups of crowds, with laughter and the flow of wit and humor, with music and joyous dancing, leaves an afterglow of happiness and beautiful memory. These are the natural outflow of the human crowd. The mingling of men and women in groups and crowds and all vying j with each other to see who can make ! the most hideous and unnatural ! noises, pelting each other with dirty 1 paper or being as near insulting as the occasion allows, drinking stuff that will cause an unnatural condition of the mind, cannot leave an • ennobling feeling or even a real joy. These are the artificial joys and not lasting or satisfying. Here’s a tip to be used in the collection of your accounts: The , average man is honest, and the pay- , ' ments of his debts is a pleasure to . him. Os bad accounts in general it may be said that most of them are due to over-buying, due to optimistic dreams of future income. Treat . your debtor generously and you will , get your money,—when he has it, . quick enough. Some people say they won’t go t« church because they do not like to ibe hypocrites. That is what they , say but that is not the reason—the > reason is that they are, to a large , extent, hypocrites already. -PunchettesZatso!

Slip your neck in the collar and run the left hand end of the tie over the right with the left hand, steadying the right end with the other hand. Then drop both ends, catching the left end with the right hand the the right end with the left hand. Reverse hands and pick up the loose end with the nearest band. Pull this end through the loop with the I unengaged hand and squeeze. This । j ties the boy. As a finishing touch, ( disentangle the hands. I Horse Sense. A man in trying to sell another a horse said, “Yes, he is perfectly all ! right.” The other bought the horse । on this recommendation, took it j home and turned it in the pasture. The horse ran into trees, fences, i etc., and its owner was convinced j that the horse was blind. . He ini- ! mediately took the horse to the one ! from whom he had bought ft and i said, “Say. that horse you sold me H is blind; he has been running into all the trees and fences in the pas- 1 ture.” The other turned at once and replied, "That horse ain't blind. I Mister. He jest don’t give a cuss.” - : Plated Silver Community Rogers and Wallace We show a very large variety of articles in the season’s newest patterns and at extremely 1o w prices, considering the fact that these silver plated wares are the best it is possible to procure.
