HALL RUNNER.

A good way to utilize plain green
filling and lining paper formerly used
for outlining room size rugs is by max

TWEEN. Basic together firmly and stitch

through both filling and paper about
one-half inch from outer edge, using a
long loose stitch. The result will be
a serviceable and good looking hall
runner which will not curl up and can
be used on either side.

Epic in Business World

since the outbreak of the war some American firms have made enormous sums of money" said Don Maring of Connors-Weyman company. "rhe most remarkable expansion that I have ever heard of is that of the firm of Cas- ton, Williams, Wigmore company of New York city.
 'In October, 1914, these three men organized a company with a capital ization of about 5000. The other day the capitalization was increased to s10,000, ,000. They have supplied the al- lies with immense numbers of automo- bile trucks and other mechanical de- vices that are needed in waging war fare
 Their success has been referred to as an epic in the commercial world. It is certainly a remarkable story, but the members of this firm were alive and aggressive They now employ over 300 clerks in their offices and do busi- ness with virtually every country in the world"

Powder Concerns Busy

"At the beginning of the war the pow der concerns of the United States com menced to do a. lot of business. Now all lines of business in this country are en- toying an unprecedented era of prosper ity' said Clyde Hunter of the du Pont Powder company. '"The volume of muni- ton business with my concern is great In addition to selling great quantities ot ammunition to the European belligerents, we are delivering large amounts of pow der to the mines throughout the country
 "A powder called permissible powder is used almost exclusively in the mines now. This particular kind of powder is ndorsed by the United States government laboratories on account of it being less likely to give a big flame or give off any smoke or gas. This has been great year for those who owned stock in the du Pont company. A dividend of 100 per cent was declared on all common stock.

LUKE M,LUKE SAYS

Ever notice that a man will take ad- vice from an absolutele stranger when he won't pay any attention to what life long friend has to say? When a man is in church he never for gets the fact that a nrckel makes more noise than dollar bill when It Is dropped into the collection plate. When some women are dressed up they remind you of a 3O-cent dog that is wear ing a $100 collar.
 Any man can break himself of the smoking habit if he wants to. All he has to do is to let his wife buy his cigars for him.
 It is ripplng laughter when your girl does it. But it is silly cackling when | some other girl does 1t. | Maybe the reason why 1t is so hard to get a man to go to church Is because he was married in one.
 | A married woman can't do it. But an 1 old maid knows that if she had hus- | band she would make him get home on 1 time for his supper and help with the dishes after he got through eating. | The fact that they set up doing light I housekeeping doesn't prevent Lovey from
 harding Dovey some mighty heavy cook | ing.
 | Most any married woman can tell you | that the only reason why there are not
 more male liars in the world is because
 they can't lie until they learn to talk. There are lots of prohibitionists who vote to abolish the saloon who would vote against abolishing the hip pocket. l Some fellows go through life acting as l if they were sorry that there are only Ten Commandments to be broken.
 1 There are few happenings that con- vince a man that he isn't as young as | he used to be. And one of them is when his son beats him at pool.
