It ha? been said
that the nearest

chasinc a Scotch
man for a debt.
Proplc* say that
there were no such
things as the uood
old days?but j in I
think, fifty years
There was no prohibi
tion. Nobody ever
board Ce 11 k r ft i sity:
Line's busy. ' No
body ever had their
radio concert busted
tip by a fool umetenr. or n siauc.
^Nobody ever cussed Henry Ford.
Carfares weren't rait-ed every once
in a while. LaFollotte wasn't
miming for President.They didn't
charge 6.GO for the pcannt ualrey
at the Follies. No punk movies
were prod need. The ncighbuig
didn't keep every one else awake
playing their phonograph.

"Ves, my friend?," said the the

Moses who instituted the old law,

But after all, which character in
the Bible has had I he largest, fol

from the back bench shouted
"Ananias!"
That beautiful and heartrender

Barbers say men pull their eye

Men won't.
The biggest, compliment a hostess
can get: "Won't you give my

Why it is
Easy to Own
The Westinghouse Light and Power Plant has demonstrated in actual
day-in and day-out service on farms that it is dependable and easy to
operate.
And now, by making it easy to own as well as easy to operate, West
inghouse has brought all the advantages of electric service within the
reach of every farmer and his family. Electric lights in the farm house
and buildings, electric household appliances, and eiectric power wherever
needed, are made available without delay.
The special Westinghouse deferred payment plan spreads the cost of
the plant itself, the wiring and the equipment, over a period of twelve
months. After making the first payment the farmer may elect to pay the
balance in six, nine or twelve equal monthly payments. Or, if he wishes,
he may pay for the plant in one, two or three payments to be made after
the completion of his erop harvests.
The complete flexibility of this plan makes it applicable to every
farmer's needs. You can install a Westinghouse Light and Power Plant on
your farm, enjoy th? comfort and convenience it will bring you, and puy
for it when your crop? are sold. That's why it is so easy to own. Let us
tell you more about it.

The first paper mill in America wae
opened near Philadelphia in 1G'.)0. The
papermaking was done by hand, and
until 175G, when the pulp engine was
introduced '.nto America from Holland,
the rags continued to be beaten into
pulp by hand.
No Matches Needed
By setting a small clock, that can
be attached to any coil or tank water
heater, it will shut off the gas when
the contents have been heated. No
matches are needed, when this con
