T , You must buy the soldier's gift early , Will you sond a Christmas present to a boy with the colors across scas? If lj gets if. on time, you will buy it early. Early means "right now". If your present is notmrlcd oif its Vfiiy within the next few days, it is not going to get there by Christmas. ' What does the soldier want? There will be extraordinary sentiment attached to the Christmas proiOnt the soldidrt receives.

SPECIAL FOR SATURDAY Carnations . , 32 cents per dozen Hoses . . M per doien C J. PASS, Greenhouses. General Tendency to Gloat Over Sight and Sound of Money Something Hard to Understand. The tendency to glont over tho sight trad sound of money may bo less per vasive than It seems. It may be only a temporary predisposition, leaving us tit heart clean, wise, nnd temperate. But there is a florid exuberance In the handling of this recurrent theme Which nnuseates us n little, like very rich food eaten in n close room, writes Agnes Reppler in the Atlantic. Why Bhould wo be told that "Uie world gapes In wonder" ns It contemplates "an Aladdin romance of steel nnd gold?" Tho world hns other things to gape over in theso sorrowful days. "Once n barefoot boy now riding In a 5100,000 private cnr." There Is n hendllne to catch the public eye, nnd mnko the public tongue hang wnterlng from Its mouth. Thnt cnr, "early Pull man nnd the late Germnn Lloyd,"'Is to tho American reader whnt the 2,000 black slaves with Jnrs of jewels upon their bends wero to Dick Swlveler a vision of tasteful opulence. More In timate journnllsts tell us that n "Finan cial Potentnte" eats baked potatoes for his luncheon, nnd gives Ills friends notebooks with n moral nxlom on each page. We cannot really care whnt this unknown gentlemnn eats. We cannot, under nny concelvnble clrcum stnnce, covet n moral notebook. Yet such Items of information would not be painstakingly acquired unless they afforded some mysterious graUflcatlou to their renders. $10.00 Minimum for Hogs The immediate fixing of a mini mum price of hogs of ?1G per hundred pounds has been asked in Uio report of a commission appointed by the United States food administration to investigate tho cost of producing swine. The commission reports that tho equivalent value of 13.3 bushels of corn for 100 pounds of average hogs must be established to get a stimula tive market and Uiat tho ratio of 14.3 bushels of corn to 100 pounds of hogs must bo decided upon to raise produc tion to 15 per cent above normal. : :o: : Wanted By woman with child, per manent employment; good cook and housekeeper; country preferred, phone 79SF13. 87-2 31.

During our walk we came upon a bowlder In theanlddle of 11 field lnlnld with a bronze plate which told us that there wns the orlgtnnl site of Yale col lege. Saybrook did not see the college go to New Ilnven without n struggle, and one of Its incidents Is piquant to recall tho famous battle of the col lege books. In December, 1718, the trustees, nlrcndy migrated to New Flnvt'ir, desired to remove the college library, which had been left behind In Saybrook. But Saybrook refused to give It up, and so stubbornly that tho governor nnd council hnd to come flown from nnrtford and set the sher iff nnd his assistants to work. These, however, found the house In which the books were kept barred and gunrded by "resolute mun," and even nfter tho shorlff had broken In nnd placed a guard over tle books the book-lovers nf Saybrook did not yet give In. On the morrow It was found that the carts that were to transport the books had been disabled, and when others were procured nnd start finally made. It was found thnt even the bridges along th road hnd txn destroyed In ad vance of thorn 1 When before or since Haa a village shown such a furious pas sion for learning!
