IN NE ED OF AMMUNITION
With Which to Carry
on the Fight,

Heroic men are not only found on
battlcficlds. They exist by the thousands
in our own cities and towns where the
only warfare being wsged is the battle
for existence.
Physically run down men in need Of
rest and medical attendance, who, for
the sake Of dependents brsvely face
the daily grind Of business activity, that,
due to increased competition. is ever
increasing in speed.
To these men We suggest the taking

A GOOD LAW.

A will was declared invalid in Lou
isville because the testator was not
81 years old. The will was written by
an 1S-year-old mother who wished to
divide a small estate among relatives,
leaving her children a portion Of il.
The court decides that the property
shall be divided according to the state
law affecting estates not devised by
will. The law is a good one, and
even in this case proves so. The chill
dren who will inherit the property
need, no doubt, all of the small estate,
and they are entitled to it as a mat
ter of right.
