This he did for SO hours. and then es.

TWO MEMORY JOGGING
DEVICES THAT WON'T
ENER EAII NNh
, - GTt Z ME TOU \


The old method of tieing a string
about a finger to recall to mind some
task to be done at a certain time has
been done away with.
The new way is to transfer a ring
from one finger to another. On the
accustomed finger the ring feels nat
ural, and does not cause annoyance,
buc on any other finger it slightly irri-
tates. This irritation constantly will
aid in recalling the task to be done.
Just try it once.
Another n more novel way is tc
carry a colored ribbon in the coat
pocket.
Suppose, now, you are in your office.
Your wife phones you to be sure and
bring home a certain thing. Go to your
coat hanging on the office rack, take
out the ribbon and tie it tightly around
a sleeve.
AT night when you start to go home
your fist will jam itself against the
tied sleeve. ooh, yes you will say to
yourself, there's that cought syrup
Molly told me to be sure and bring
home tonight" and off you will go at
once to make the purchase.
A man who is VIGOROUSLY known to
never forget to perform a mission re-
quested by his wife," won his reputa-
ton by use of the above two methods.
Simply by transferring his finger ring
he has been known never to forget to
mail her letters on the day they We're
given to him..

sion of the reasons Why this ma
ton must enlarge its preparations
for defense. We have been dis
gracefully ~unprepared and in way
that the average man does not
dream OF. 1t is hard to quicken a
democracy's interest in even the
needful degree of safety in a time
when no war seems to threaten. 1t
is no new condition; 1t has obtained
for years. We are not so badly Off
as in 1898, but against the present
war footing Of any one Of five Dr.
six nations w have too little to Of
fer. 1t is settled that congress will
do something.
We know, of course, that we are
Americans, that, given time, we
could raise, train and equip an
ton. that we could perfect arrange
ments for subsisting it, that we
could again as in 1866 float the most
powerful navy In the world. But
only a foo thinks this could be done
overnight. or in six months or a
year
Will congress do the thing 1t will
say 1t Is doing? We have now an
! army, a certain schedule Of muni-
tions. equipment, wagons and so on
for that exceedingly small army.
But we have not the guns. we have
AOS IlIS tloA1lAOllSt " lI0 lCIAlSs
nor the wagons, nor the horses that
even this pitifully small army is
supposed to be equipped with. For
decades the American public has
been deliberately deceived. We are
told that we have a wonderfully
good army of diminutive size. There
Is no ~discounting the men, but the
other things that "the plan contem-
plates" are not there. Congress has
said they shall be-and has gone
about its pork barrel filling without
providing the means
Now this Is not patriotism; 1t
smacks of something that is the re-
verse. OF its real meaning we had
a little taste In the d~isgraceful
events OF 1898.
That Is why the question before
congress Is not what number of
ships and men It will authorize,
but. VIII you do the thing you say
you are doing?" Will there be col
liers to coal the vessels? Will there
be ammunition for your big guns2
VIII there be tents for your SOL
diers? And wagons for their sup
plies?
This Is the heart of our problem.

instincts of a s~tatesmanlike economist,
for the material will surely be in demand
for Iowa roads before a decade is past,
and 1t is wise to be in a position before
