USED ONE PEN "A YEARS,

Tho constant use OF pen point for

FIVE years and key ring nineteen

Incredible. but such is the case With
Carl Burba. a clerk in the general Gus
toms Office here.
Mr.. Burba, who was in the drug
business at New Hope for more than
ten years, is now using constantly a
pen point he secured, second hand,
while in the drug business, and since
be has been at work for Uncle Sam he
has continued to use it, preterring it
to any other. During that time he las
worn out two peuholders, but the point
Is still In the prime of condition, kept
SO ty the care bestowed upon it by its
sUner.
A fellow clerk was discussing the
matter Of care of pens yesterday, when
Mr. Burba remarked that any pen or
article Of any kind would last for years
If given the proper care. To prove his
claim he drew from his pocket knife
which he had carried eighteen years.
The blades gave evidence Of numerous
whettings but not a gap or break
could be seen. The knife. Mr.. Burba
said, had done full share Of WORK
since he had owned it, and is good for
many years yet.
After exhibiting the knife Mr.. Burba
drew forth key ring bearing the date
of 1855. It is d souvenir of the Louis
vile exposition, was purchased as such
by Mr.. Burba during the festal occa-
sion and has since done constant serv-
fee. Mr. Burba has n special pocket

err breaks the point from pencil, never
loans it but that he watches it closely
and sees 10 it that it does not get
away; never leaves the pencil, key ring
or knife wing on his desk, but replaces
them in their respective pockets when
not in use, and by such inviolate sys-

AT the present time much is be-
ing said about the ''unwritten
law" due to the frequency IN
which it has been resortcd to OF
late. The interpreters Of the un-
written law say that if a man
srcaEs i'll Of another mans wife,
the aggrieved party is justified in
taking the slaudercr S life, and it
is claimed to be iustifable regard
less Cf the fact that written laws
have superseded it. Several
crimes Of recent date are TO lie
supported by the unwritten law,
which seems as wrongful as n
theft convicted OF stealing has
a right to point to his property as
the cause Of his crime. No doubt
should the written law once ac-
cept the theory involved in the UNI
written law, such crimes would hc
more frequent than they are now,
and the sanctify Of the home
should be guarded by written laws
even more stringent than they are
