\TOU WILL find that the Lib
X erty owner is especially
proud of two things :
One is the beauty of the Liberty ;
the other, the difference in the
way in which it rides and drives.
Its beauty, of course, needs no
demonstration, for its distinc
tive, individual design is quite
apparent.
And if you will ride with him, or
with us, for just ten minutes,
you will be convinced that the
difference lie speaks of 1$ not
born of his enthusiasm ? but a
real and vital difference in the
Liberty itself.

PROPER AMERICAN IS SIMS
Many Reasons Why Rear Admiral
Ha? Obtained and Retain* Qen.

Hear Admiral Sim* came quietly

certainly did like t ho admiral. A
popular Idol thut obtains the plaudits
of Washington Is pretty good.
Those art* some trf tin- things lb*
people liked about the admiral: lie
said very positively 'hut la* \> 1 1 1 HQt

said he was glad, to exhibit hln?*?>(f If
the folks wanted to see hlin : and.
best 6f all, he tqok time to talk with
every ouo who could fcqu.eexe a Word

I>own at the Union stutlou, when the

a gray-hatred woman rushed up and
shook his hand warmly.1'
"This Is the proudest day of myjlfe.

shaken hands twice with you."
"All right. my dear lady,"* the ad

OLD THINGS UNDER THE SUN
Democracy In Ancient Jewish Days and
the League of Nation*,
Aro Two. *
The democratic Idea Is of great antiq
uity, the ^Christian Herald reminds Its
readers. Under the prophetb and
Judges, Israel was a democracy. It was
not until they were fascinated^ by the
barbaric splendor and unrestrained li
cense of the heathen nations around
them that they began to be dissatisfied
with their own simple ways and to long
for a klrfg and a showy court. It was
the lure of sin and worldly vanity.
Samuel warned them against courts
and kin^s and told them of what would
happen, but his warnings went unheed
ed. The vision of the age of peace,
began as early as eight centurlerf B, O..
tint It was not until the Clftjstlan era,
that the world change In the oxlsilng
order fqlly dawned upon the minds of
men. The Idea of a league of nations
is not new. Such a league was fore
shadowed by Jean Bloch, In his re*
markahje book. "The Future of War."
Issued 20 years ago. It was also fore
seen by Emanuel Kant, who, tn his en
say on "Perpetual Peace," wrote thnt
the law of nations must be- based on
the federation of free states. At dif
ferent times leaders In national and
International reform have had visions
of such a lcrtigue, but always as a pos
sibility of the remote future. It has
remained for the United States to
promulgate it at a time when tha
world seems prepared to listen.
Wiping Out Predatory Animals.
"Touring 101S hunters of the United
States department of agriculture killed
83 gray wolves In New Mexico, 34
mountain llon^, 15 stock-destroying
bears, 1,860 coyotes, and 350 bobcata .
we are told. These animals were
killed at a total expense of $64,860.
and the saving effected by their de
struction, on the basis commoitly ac
cepted by stockmen, amounts to $215,
050 annually. Hunting during the
spring period destroys many younjr,
and thus prevents Increase. Many
coyotes not accounted for in the fig
ures given were destroyed by poison.
The killing of these animals marks a
long stride In extermination of gray
wolves and other predatory animals,
and the saving Is cumulative for years
to come.
Pats the 8altt
Two reporters were boasting of fhe ^
speed of their shorthand writing.
"Whenever I am reporting at a meet
ing on a warm evening, all the people
try to get near to my table'.
"Why?" asked the other.
"Because," said the pen pusher, "my
hand goes so fnst that It creates a
current of air like a fan."
"A mere nothing," said number two.
"I always have to report on wet pa
per, or else the current of air caused
by the movement of my hand would
blow It away. Resides the paper has
to be wetted % every few minutes, be
cause the friction caused by the rapid
movements of my arm would set fire
to It In no time."
U*c_for Rat Skin*.
Exhibiting the cured skin of a brawn
rat, the veterinary Inspector of New
castle, Eng.. has pronounced such
skins superior to the linings found In
some expensive coats. The difficulty |
In creating a ratskin Industry appears
to be the uncertain source of supply ;
but the demand that would be aroused
would be an Incentive for destroying
the rats that now constltu^ so serious
a plague. The l>odles of the animals I
need not be wasted, as they form suit
able food for pigs, poultry r.nd dnga.

Fire Protection
We beg to call your attention to the constantly increasing coat/of labor and ma
terials, and the consequent increase in the value aof build ings, machinery, merchan
dise and household effects, and would recommend that you look over your insurance
with this in view, and advise us how much additional insurance you require, ;

As- you know, the cost to construct a buildling today is from 35 to 100 per cent
more than it was five years ago, and even taking into consideration depreciation, the
replacement value, which is the adjustment basis in case of a fire, is greater than the
cost of the building a few years ago. Machinery," merchandise and household' effects

have also increased in like proportion. - ' .
