Music in the home, more music, better
music, is the first impulse of the

up-to-date home must keep in tune.
That old piano you learned your scales

any music dealer will allow you liber-

Perhaps yours is one of those silent
pianos that only take up room?

THE PISTOL POCKET

A man who clrries "A pistol is more
apt to resent supposed insult than
one who IS not armed and is quick to

go under armed are not so hasty and
quick tempered and it is rare that
they get into personal difficulties.
On the subject Of the "Orgy Of the
Pistol Pocket" the Augusta Chrohi.
Gle says:
A week ago Augustans picked up
The Chronicle to find news of two
men shot to death and the body of a
woman located in a canad. it was war
not held that the woman had been a
gunmans victim, but lead had been
pumped into the other two unfortuna,

The Atlanta Constitution the other
day printed a similar news story
as to its own town--swo negroes
killed and three badly wounded,
blind tiger whisky and hippocket
pistol being at the bottom of it all"
And, says the Constitution this
orgy of maniacal revelry and crime
took place under supposedly strict
'bone-dry' prohibition conditions and
within fortnight of similar one
which was followed by IA vehement

that is not the point. The main thing
