How truly this trite old phrase ap plies in buying home Supplies. Peo ple will pay car fare to some distant city, exhaust themselves with a day of shopping, waste valuable time, anti return with goods they could have bought better at home. And they ad mit it. Making a wise purchase is not sim ply handing over your money to a machine. You want some personal ser vice. You don't get that out of a mail order house shipment, or from some stranger clerk in a distant depart ment store. On the contrary, the home merchant and his clerks try to make a sale that will fit your needs. They give you the benefit of their intelligence and ex perience. They speak of defects to be avoided and give information about goods. In making this kind of pur chase. you get service, sdmething more | than the mere goods handed over the counter. And if they don't fit, you get satisfaction. CLEAR CREEK SAND. Walter Shettler went to Mason, Sat urday. Simon Galispie will sell out the 22 ! of this month.

Ingersol made for himself a legion of 4nemies by his at tacks on Christianity, all must admire his eloquence. No man in America could more beautifully frame a sen tence, and his eloquent remarks at the grave of his brother lead one to doubt if the great infidel was half so bad as his own words, at times pic tured him to be. A man who uttered so many beautiful things had but lit tle room in his heart for atheism with its cold, revolting, heathenish teach ings. In a symposium on woman. Col. Robert G. Ingersol was asked to con tribute his views. He replied as fol \ lows: “It takes a hundred men to make an encampment, but one woman can make a home. I not only admire wo man as the most beautiful object ever | created, but I reverence her as the re deemed glory of humanity, the sanc tuary of all virtues, the pledge of all perfect qualities of heart and head. It is because women are so much bet ter than men that their faults are con sidered greater. The one thing in this world that is constant, the only peak that rises above the clouds, the one window, in which the light burns for ever. the one star that darkness can not quench, is woman's love. It rises to the greatest heights, it sinks to the lowest depths, it forgives the most cruel injuries. A woman's love is the perfume of the earth. This is the real love that subdues the earth; the love that has wrought all miracles of art; that gives us music all the way from the cradle song to the grand closing symphony that bears the soul away on wingS of fire. A love that is greater than power, sweeter than life and stronger than death.” A BILL WE CAN’T PAY. A ten year old boy overheard a con j versation about certain bills to be paid, and conceived the idea of making out a bill for his own services. So the next morning he laid this statement of account on his mother’s breakfast plate: “Mother owes Willie for carrying coal six times, twenty cents; for bring ing water lots of times, thirty cents; for going ten errands, fifteen cents.” His mother read the bill but said noth ing about it. That evening \YilIie found on his plate the sixty-five cents and also another bill which read as fol lows: “Willie owes his mother for his happy home for ten years, nothing; for his food and clothing, nothing; for nursing him through a long illness, nothing: total, nothing.” When Willie saw the sixty-five cents he wa^ pleas ed. But when he read his mother's bill his eyes grew dim and his lips quivered. Then he took the money to his mother, threw his arms about her neck and begged that she would let him do lots of things for her. Mother’s bill is rarely presented but it will pay each person to think it out and over for himself and then pay it in love and service.—Exchange. NOTICE TO CREDITORS. State of Nebraska.

If you do your prolific kindred are the most widely represented family in the ranks of Uncle Sam’s fighting men. according to statistics recently complied by the United States marines. Of the 1932 Smiths who have recent ly enlisted In the United States marine corps there are 181 Franks. 165 Johns and 160 each of Charlie and Williams. Murphys take the lead among those of Irish descent with 322, and among the Hebrews, who contrary to general be lief are first class fighting men, 122 Cohens stand bravely to the fore. The term ‘.Tommy Atkins" applied to the English soldier gained its popu larity by the large number of that name in the British Army, and the United States mariner point to "Frank Smth” as being the logical sobriquet of the American military man.
