The Ideal
Christmas Gift

Two full car loads Of HOMER PIPELESS FURNACES
arrived last week. This form of heating has become very
popular in this vicinity. Ii you order at once we are in a
position to install a furnace in your home before Christmas.
Without doubt this will be a happy day for you and yours
but let us suggest how to make it still happier. If you OWN
YOUR HOME INSTALL A HOMER. The kids will be busy
with their tree after dinner and you may be helping them
but there will be someone out in the kitchen worrying about
keeping fire in the stove or oil in the heaters. Why don't
YOU let Mr.. NJ do the worrying? He only takes two
meals a day, morning and late evening, and two minutes of
your time will give him all he wants. In return he will pre-
sent you with the GIFT OF COMFORT-HEAT If he
gets a crank on and supplies too much or too little a turn
of a dial UPSTAIRS in your living room brings him at once
back to his senses. You don't have to run down to the cellar
to see what's the matter with him and best of all your wife
needn't visit him at all. Feed him in the morning before
you go to work and at night before you go to bed and your
wife, who no doubt has enough to do upstairs, can regulate
him without ever seeing him. When your n~eighbors come
in to visit your wife won't need to rake up the stove or
apologize for the dust. No, the gentleman in the callar, Mr..
OMER, will be supplying the usual STEADY HEAT. No
fuss, no cold radiators, just EVEN, SOLID COMFORT.
You must act quickly as we have a lot of orders to fill and
only a limited number of mechanics to fill them. You may
go out to work in a warm office, store or factory while the
children attend a warm school but the Mrs. is home all day
wrestling with a refractory stove and trying to make things
comfortable for your return. Save her all this and make
your HOME COMPLETE by sending us your order at once.

THE MIGHTY TRUCK

To anyone who remembers when It almost
impossible to persuade business to substitute
motor truck for horses and wagons the record of the
truck for the past year is revelation
More than 100000 trucks have been in use, and
they have hauled about and half billion tons OF
freight. That is than LOCO tons year for the
average ruck-an impressive fact, when you renlem-
Der that most trucks small.
They have done most of the local hauling and de-
liverng in cities They have been Of tremendous SER
vice in getting farm products to market. They have
been invaluable in the OIL copper, lead and zinc indus
tries, actually transporting 10 per cent of products
from the mines and materials to the mines They are
used more and more in the coal industry.
AS an adjunct to the railroads, however unWel-
come theory the truck has probably saved the coun-
try from disastrous breakdown of transportation. In
one city, Cincinnati where careful observation was
made it was found that the of trucks eliminated
300 900 Switching cuts released $4,000 for other
work and advanced the average freight-movement 81
hours. -
All of which is very fine. And now that fitting
tribute has been paid to the merits of this modern
iuggernaut it remains to suggest that rule city
pavemens and country roads have not yet been made
strong enough for the heavy truck traffic. and the
truck not yet paying its proper share toward the con-
struction and maintenance OF adequate paving

INSULTING OTHER NATIONS

Elhu Root, in recent address, paid his respects
to jlngoes who, in the OF patriotism
toned to say offensive things about other nations
"You pick up newspaper almost any morn
ing, he said "and see accounts of how somebody who
ought to know better is endeavoring to crafty himself
to ngratiate himself with a preiudiced audience by
abuse and insult of foreign nation, using langu
age which, if employed between man ~and man within
country, would lead to an immediate breach.
More fights come from insult than from injury.
More from international feeling because of
belief of insult and humiliation than come from any
material thing.
People cannot successfully conduct control
their foreign affairs until they have learned RESPONSE
bility. When they have learned that think it will
to be popular for to insult other nations in
public, just has ceased to be popular for man to
insult another man in public.
The evil resulting from such irresponsible ridicule
and denuncation ncaculable 1t might be said that
of the trouble in Europe is due to this
practice of publicly insulting other nations. America
by free from the Objectionable and danger
practice The whole world seems to need, much
as anything else, better set of international man
ners, answering to the code of manners that decent
people everywhere follow among themselves.
What the country needs is good dry-clean-

FAMILY INCORPORATION

Something in the rival realms of business and
family life is the merging of the two in the form of
corporation. The example is set by wealthy Con-
neccut family, which has applied for incorporation
under the laws of the state for business purposes
to save taxes The members of the family figure that
as a corporation, they will not have to pay as much
to the government they do now IN the form OF per-
sonal income taxes.
The method may be perfectly legal and practical;
and if So it is to find host of mltators Even
investment in tax-free bonds may lose its charms IN
comparison with this ingenious scheme.
Before any particular family tries it, however, 1T
would be we'll to consult good legal and business auth
critics. as well as personal cOnsciences. If the plan
works can be only in the case of family well off
that its income is subject to big surtaXes The family
with few thousand dollars year would find the
normal corporation income of II IL per cent
burdensome than the personal tax.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND JOLLIE s

Once upon a time, when Uncle
Wiggily was hopping along over the
snow not far from his hollow stump
bungalow, the rabbit gentleman felt
one of his paws, slip down into what
seemed to be hole beneath the icy
crust of snow.
"Dear MEL thought Uncle Wig
gily, 81 hope IN not going to sink
down into the den of the Fox or

However his paw did not go down
very far-just breaking a hole
through the snow and then stopping
when hard. ground was reached. I'm.
Gle Wiggily looked into the hole his
paw had made, not expecting to see
anything. But he was greatly sur
prised when he noticed what seemed
to be a little ball of brown fuzzy
fur.
"Oh ho!' said Uncle Wiggily to
himself, twinkling his pink nose, 81

II take it to my bungalow and give

Uncle Wiggily picked up the little

put it in his pocket. Then, thinking
10 more about it, he hoped on,
looking for an adventure.
