HOW TO GET RICH


How can you get rich? Thousands of ways
You've given thought to many of them. And
probably, at one time or other, you've tried to
invent something as shortcut to wealth.
Trouble is, most folks try to invent some
thing complicated.
The simple things are most in demand. Manv
pig fortunes have been founded on them For
instance:
husband got tired of searching under the
bureau for his wifes lost hairpins. So he
crimped the wires of the hairpins to keep them
from falling out of her hair The idea worked
lie built business around it. Today every
woman uses his invention.
Another fellow lived in the DAYS when all
screws were flat at the end when hole had TO
be drilled before the screw could be used. He
sent to Washington the shortest patent appl-
cation on record: Il claim patent on a screw
with gimlet point"
That patent made him rich. Millions of
screws, basedNon it, are now used every dav.
Great fortunes grew out of the safety pin.
removable collar button, sharpened nail, kew
ring and rubber pencil tip. This latter was
devised by an office clerk who tied his eraser
to his pencil SO he wouldn't have to reach for
it.
Can you invent metal tip that won't pull
off shoe laces?
Or some way of fastening French heels to
Womens shoes so they won't come loose?
Or wrench that will handle big pine with
out crushing it?
Or simple device to do easily anything else
now difficult?
II So you can virtually name your own price.
CABINET TO TAKE PRESIDENTS PULSE
For the purpose of providing a means of
determining when President of the United
States is disabled within the meaning of the
Constitution, Representative Madden of nli-
nois, has introduced bill to provide that when
ever the President shall for any reason what
soever become unable for period of six con-
secutlve weeks to perform the duties devolved
upon him by the Constitution the question of
ms inability to so perform shall be made the
subject OF an open official inquiry by the mem
bers OF his Cabinet who shall be called together
for such purpose by the Secretary of State. In
case majority of the Cabinet determine that
the President is suffering such degree of in
ability whether due to absence or physical or
mental affllction as to render him incapable of
performing the duties of Chief Executive, thew
shall formally declare his inability whereupon
the Vice President is to assume the office until
the disability shall be declared removed by a
majority OF the same Cabinet members.

BY the flow of the inland river,
Whence the fleets of iron have fed,
Where the blades of the grave grass culver,
Asleep are the ranks of the dead
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment Day:-
Under the one, the Blue;
Under the other, the Gray.
These in the robings of glory,
Those in the gloom of defeat
All with the battle-blood CORY,
In the dusk Of eternity meet
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment Day.
Under the laurel, the Blue;
Under the willow, the Gray
From the silence of sorrowful hours,
The desolate mourners go,
Lovingly laden with flowers
Alike for the friend and the foes
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the Judgment Day.
Under the roses the Blue;
Under the lilies, the Gray
So, with equal splendor,
The morning sun-rays fall
With a touch impartialy tender,
On the blossoms blooming for all--

Once a year regularly. since the

Not only was the resignation re-

thermore, he declares he has a
double reason for enhancing his
earning capacity"
Twins recently came to our

the work satisfactorily. I ought to
have the money to help support
those twins"
His services as a referee are today
in much demand In Kansas. Missouri
and Oklahoma His presence in the
ring Is regarded as a guarantee OF a
clean fight. His influence in making
boxing a popular sport has been felt
throughout this section.

in France that the Rev. Mr.. Black
man became a devotee OF the nstlc

PET MONKEY Is
DIAMOND THIEF

REHOBOTH. Sept 1s-The
mysterious disappearance of sew
eral thousand dollars worth OF dia-
monds from the cottage of f. t.
Nicholson, of St Louis. was solved
yesterday. About two weeks ago
Mrs Nicholson went in bathing and
left her rings and pins on a bureau
top. Returning they were gone.
Detectives were called In and suspI-
cion rested on several persons. but
with not enough proof to warrant an
arrest.
Nicholson picked up an old coat
hanging in a closet yesterday and.
putting his hand in the pocket
found the missing jewelry. It is be-
lieVed that the pet monkey around
the house picked up the rings and
placed them in the pocket. as there
were several other small articles in
cludipg ball. with which the
monkey played.
