TIES UP ESTATE go YEARS
Farmers Will Gives Family Only Life

Trenton, N. J.-Because of the pro-
visions Of the will Of the late He,.r
Sked it is likely that $4,000, the pre-.
ceeds Of the recent sale Of the Sked
farms at Hokewell and Pennington.
will be tied up in the court Of chan.
Gerry for at least sixty years. A life
interest in the farms was left to Mrs
Sked and the children, and upon
their deaths were to go to the grand.
children.
The sale Of the land was made un.
der statute which permits the court
Of chancery, where real estate is left
by will and where it is considered
wise to 80 to do, to convert the prop.
erty into cash and invest the cash
for the benefit of the legatees.
Under this law the proceeds Of the
sale have been invested and the inter.
est will be paid over to the widow
and children. AS the Sked children
are comparatively young It Is likely
that 1t will be sixty years or more
before the money passes over to the
grandchildren and out Of the control
of the court.

Religion is our attempt to discover

We never think of the value of the

Plain living and high thinking is all

Modesty is virtue, but too much
of 1t may be vice. 1t is not right for

Clean money never harms the inno-
cent nor takes advantage of the fol-
lies and frailties of the weak and un.
fortunate.
The well.bred farmer is not content
with poorly bred stock, but circum'
stances may force him to tolerate it

A fool is unable to see his own
faults. A wise man, seeing his own
faults, Is able to keep other people
from noticing them.
The south has had to wait for long
arrears Of prosperity, but it will take
payment now at rate such as never
usurer dared to ask.
Don't worry about something that
you think may happen tomorrow, be-
cause you may die tonight and tomor-

Albany, N. Y.-The use Of abandon

farm colonies for tramps and Migrants

unused farms have come into the pos
session of the state through nonpay
ment of mortgages given to secure
state loans at the time Of the Civil

as farm colonies for tramps will be

Are women constitutionally tougher

withstand conditions which man. who
