Finally Reuben realized that he had

said: "Well, if you don't want it, I'll

the money out of the spaces in the mat

arose from the other passengers. When

farmer was still mourning his missing

wife was struggling to prevent him from

IN. b. NJ" contributes an article
this week on nail driving and uses
as her text an item that appeared In
the JOURNAL some months ago. Her
remarks forcibly remind Us Of our
grandfather, when he used to take
the axe in one hand and an old rusty
nail In the other, and go down to
fasten an impro vised leathern hinge
to the garden gate, in order to afford
better ingress and egress and keep
"them durn hogs out" We remem-
Der how the old man used to aim
poorly with that old axe, and the
storm Of adjectives which followed
was not very becoming to an elder In
the Presbyterian church. Grand
mother never used to employ such
words when she missed the nail and
hit her thumb. She only lectured
US and told us to "stiddy the cheer"
q little better upon which she stood.
Perhaps the fact that grandmother
lay the blame to our charge when
her aim was at fault has pre-
JUDGED us against the whole race Of
female nail drivers, but we can't
help 1t. "As o mans heart 10, so 10

ton of the church or the authority
Of the law, spent Christmas In Sa-

stopped at the the Brunswick, but
being detected, flew to . more
humble hostelry, where they enjoy
ed the day and the night to their
own liking. We dislike to mention
such things In these columns and
would not under ordinary circum-
stances, but they two pass as respect

to warn them against repeating the

will have good cause to regret their
