SKELETON KEY A Y T

'There is nothing to the skeleton
ksy idea we hear so much about"
said an Indianapolis safe and lock
expert. "Sueh a thing as a skele-
ton key that will unlock all locks
does not exist. The lockemith is
supposed to have such a key, and
we have been made to swallow more
than one robbery story told on the
theory that there was such a thing
as a skeleton key, which, by some
magic trick of construction, would
unlock all sizes and conditions Of
locks. The idea is all rot.
"For hotels the lock factories
manufacture a series of locks for
one floor, for instance, which can be
unlocked by a master key. OF
course, every lock on the floor has a
separate key, and no one of these
keys viii unlock more than the door
for which it was made. There is, in
addition to this master key a key
referred to as the grand MASTER
which will unlock any door on any
floor Of the hotel. But it is readily
understood that all the locks in g
particular hotel series are of similar
construction, and the matter Of fur
nishing a master or grand master
key is comparatively simple"

Missouri State Fair.

One Of the LOST profitable exhibits
10 farmers at the S ate Fair will be the
display OF farm machinery aud imple-
ments. An opportunity IS here Afford
ed 10 study the advantages OF the var
lous machines, the labor each will save,
the comparative amount of power re.
qaired, the adaptabillty to the pur-
poses intended and the ease with
which they may be operated.
E tch NJ lchiDe on exhibition is on an
quality, they are operated by the
same power and under like conditions.
The farmer is free to ask all kinds of
questions, to criticise without restraint,
to require operating tests to bis salts
faction, and to have every feature OF
the mechanism explained.
The display is a school in farm ma
chinery, a lesson in how to select the
BEST and to operate it most success
ully. With the various machines
operating side by side the advantage OF
one over the other, II any, may be
ooted and the farmer enabled to pur-
chase intelligently the latest improved
machinery, and that giving the best
satisfaction,
All space in the great Implement
Building at the Missouri State FAIR
has been engaged, and scores Of big
manufacturers are installing exhibits
under tents. Acres OF the finest farm
machinery manufactured in the world
will be on exhibition, and every Mis-
souri, farmer interested IN improved
machinery should spend two or three
days at the state Fair in making q
study and a thorough examination OF
every implement needed on bis farm.
