PURCHASES WITHOUT SERVICE.
"Going farther and faring worse."
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.

THE GREAT INFIDEL.
While Robert G. 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.

SMITHS IN THE LEAD.
Washington. Feb. 21.—Do you be
long to the Smith family? 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.
