, 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

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.
