LUKE MeLUkE SAYS

OF course II is none of our bust
ness. But we are here to announce
that the man who marries money
certainly earns it.
Some men go to church on Sun
day. And other men regard the day
as holiday.
Toned tad who put on his liver pad
and his chest protector when he
dressed in the morning?
II you want to find out just what
a monumental ignoramus you are,
try to tell your wife how to run the
house.
Man has always been a deceitful
pup and woman has always been a
trusting creature who got the worst
of it. When Adam used to stay out
late at night Eve imagined that he
was studying astronomy. She didn't
know Il at Lilith was the only star
Adam cared anything about.
When wife spends two hours
doiling her lair and her complexion
her husband hardly glances at her.
But II some other woman has devot-
ed that much time to dolling up
Friend Husband can't keep his eyes
off the other woman.
Experience is something that
teaches a man how dishonest the
other fellow can be.
Even when n husband likes his
wife he is too selfish to enjoy wait
ing on her. But when a wife likes
her husband she loves to wait on
him.
Watch two boys playing with a
wagon and you will notice that the
biggest boy does the riding while
the smaller boy is the horse. And
men are only grown-up boys.
A young man never appreciates his
friends because he has not learned
how hard>it is to make friends and
how easy 1t Is to make enemies.

IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP WORK
Why Even One Days Closing Of Vim.
egar Factories Would Mean I'm.
mense Loss to the Owners.

One vinegar factory at Philadelphia
has been in continuous operation
twenty-four hours day every day Of
the year for fifty-two years and an.
other for forty years.
This fact was brought out when the
owners of the factories appealed from
the fuel administrators order closing
industries for certain periods to save
coal.
Vinegar experts testified that to
stop making vinegar would ruin the
tanks In which II Is manufactured.
Alcohol Is placed In tanks lined and
packed with beech shavlngs. II the
generating process Is halted the shaw
ings are dried out or burned up and
are useless.
To stop for day would mean clos
ing six months, said large manufac-
turer. Much Of the present output of
vinegar at Philadelphia Is used in
making explosives.

81 BELIEVED TO BE
MINIMUM FOR SILVER

While the Pittman silver bill is
popularity supposed to fix the price
OF silver at 81 an ounce, the ques-
ton has been raised whether this Is
not a minimum price, with no limits
ON maximum price, says the Den
yer News. Cne New York banker,
after reading the bill, declared that
IN view of existing conditions the
price of silver for commercial pur.
poses may easily rise above 81 an
ounce.
Section of the Pittman silver
purchase bill says: That upon every
such sale Of bullion from time to
time the secretary of the treasury
shall Immediately direct the director
OF the mint to purchase an amount
of silver equal to 371.25 grains of
pure silver in respect to every stand
ard silver dollar so melted or broken
up and sold as bullion. Such pur-
chases shall be made in accordance
with the then existing regulations
OF the mint and at the fixed price
of 81 per ounce. 1000 fine. delivered
a: the option of the director of the
mint at New York, Philadelphia,
Denver or San Francisco"
The law does not commander the
output of silver, nor is there any
thing in it or any agreement between
the silver PRODUCERS and the govern
ment that mining companies shall
sell to domestic consumers at the
same price as to the government. In
this respect, silver is different from
steel and copper. In the case of
both these metals the price to be
paid by the governm ent was reach
ed by an agreement between the pro
ducers and the war industries board.
Moreover, it was agreed that steel
and copper companies should sell to
the allies and to domestic consum-
ers at the same price as. to the gov
eminent.
Officials of the silver producing
companies say that no agreement
as been made whereby their entire
o"'put or any specific percentage of
it is to be turned over to the govern
ment. The Pittman bill enables the
government almost Immediately to
come into possession of $50, 900, 900
silver dollars. and, while they may be
melted and exported as fast as sill
yer certificates can be drawn in and
The silver dollars so melted are ulti-
mately to be replaced, no time limit
is placed on the recoinage.
In his letter to Senator Pittman
indorsing the silver purchase bill.
Secretary McAdoo said: THE prop
osition is, in trief, to retire silver
certificates, to borrow from the
treasury the silver fer use for war
purposes above set forth, and then,
as silver from time to time in the fu-
ture comes on the market, to replace
the silver SO borrowed by purchase
in the market at the fixed price of
81 per fine ounce and to replace the
borrowed silver by coming the new
silver acquired for that purpose into
standard silver dollars. There is no
limit of time within which this must
be DONE"
