TELLS   WHEN   WATER   BOILS
(Thanksgiving   Day,   1711.)
Tney got the tur-
hey  from   the
woods,
The  pumpkin
from the field;
They    sang    "Witt
praise of heavy
crops,
And "blessed the
splendid yield.
They   baked    the
luscious pumpkin pie
With rich and flaky crust,
And vowed, in honest thankfulness,
"Rewarded is our trust!"

"Yes, we call that old gobbler Ahdul
Hamid," said the farmer.
"Indeed?" we commented. "And
why, pray?"
"Because he is the old Turk in the
lot that we will not he able to get
any money out of."
Truly, we might have foreseen this,
had we noticed the copy of the funny
weekly in his pocket.
Novel   Alarm   Arrangement   Invented
by a German for the Benefit
of the Cook.
The secret of good tea lies in pouring hot water over the leaves just as
the water has come to a boil. If the
water has had a chance to boil a
while, some of the air in it passes ofi
and the taste of the tea is much inferior. Of course a cook cannot stand
around the kettle waiting for the exact instant the water comes to a
boil, so a German" invented an alarm
to tell just when that moment was
reached.   Two metal arms extend out
over the spout of the kettle and are
connected hy wires to an electric hell.
When the ends of the arm meet a circuit is formed which rings the hell.
These points of contact are separated
when the kettle is put over the fire
by means of a lump of sugar placed
between the two. The first puffs of
steam that issue from the spout, just
as the water is beginning to boil; melt
the sugar and bring the arms together, ringing the bell. The cook then
pours the water over the tea leaves at
once.
Where Were the Dashes?
"This turkey has dots aU over it,"
complained the purchaser to the Ingenuous Farmer from whom he had
made the purchase.
"Blame it!" exclaimed the Ingenuous Farmer, with an air of childlike
simplicity, "I told Marthy las' summer
that she hadn't oughter let them turkeys roost on them telegraph wires."

There is a vast difference in
candy—such a variety in quality
ancl prices that it is -hard to tell
when you are getting good candy
•.until you have paid for it. But
-when you buy candy with the
'"'name "Lowney" on the box, you
know you are getting the best
candy made, fresh, clean ancl
pure. We want you to try some
of this candy—we have Just received a fresh shipment of it. in
pound and half-pouncl haxes.

Take home a pound or half-
pound of any one of these candies in a nice fancy box and see
what a "hit""you make.

For the benefit of a number of people who are burdening the mails with
hilarious things abqut the Thanksgiving and Christnias seasons, we beg to
mention the following themes, which
are now barred by the statute of limitations:
"Thankful that I am not the turkey."
"Got nothing in my stocking until
I put it on."
} 	
"Poems ahout the soldier boy so far
away, who weeps over his hardtack
and sees visions of the folks at .home."
(Like as not he has foraged a better dinner than he ever got at home
and has won all the money in his
mess at poker.)
"Anything and everything about
calling the doctor on the day after
Christmas." (This joke has appeared
regularly since 1774 and should have
been superannuated fifty years ago.)
. "Boardlnghouse turkey. Consists ol
neck and giblets." (The average
hoardinghouse turkey also has wings.)
"Turkey appearing in hash for
three weeks." (Turkeys are not elephants.)
"Kissing old maid hy mistake under mistletoe." (Nothing of the kind
ever occurred.)
"Any comhination of colored man,
farmer's dog and hencoop." (This
Idea has heen worked over until it is
old enough to appear in London
Punch,)
"All allusion to the sultan, to the
partition of Turkey, and to the comhination of Greece and Turkey." (Let
the poor man alone in his troubles.)
A Little Problem.
If a marketman buys a turkey for
12 cents a pound and sells it for IS,
and his hand weighs 4 pounds and the
turkey weighs 12, what is the man's
nrofit?
Sayort 'dany From Death.
W. L. Mock of Mock, Ark., believes
he has saved many lives in his 25
years of experience in the drug business. "What I always like to do,"
he writes, "Is to recommend Dr.
King's New Discovery for weak, sore
lungs, hard colds, hoarseness, obstinate coughs, lagrippe, croup, asthma
or other bronchial affection, for I
feel sure that a number of my neighbors are alive and well today because
they took my advice to use It. I
honestly believe it's the best throat
and lung medicine that's made."
Easy to prove he's right. Get a trial

1912 Almanac
Before the great Drouth of 1901, the
Hicks Almanac gave timely warning.
For over two years prior to 1911, the
Hicks Almanac again sounded a
warning of drouth danger. And so
for forty years this same friend of all
the people has steadfastly refused the
offers of speculators and continued to
warn the public of the coming dangers
o'f storm and weather. As they
should have done, the people have
nobly stood by Professor Hicks, their
faithful public servant, who has grown
old in their service. Send only one
dollar to Word and Works Publishing -CoarpAXT, 3101 Franklin
/Avenue, St. Louis, Missouri, and get
his Magazine and Almanac both for
one year. The Almanac alone, a fine
book of 150 pages, is only 85c by
mail. Let everybody respond and receive the warnings of our National
Seer for the coming year.

If your competitor is prosperous,
don't grunt, growl or grumble. Say
a good word for him. Don't be a
Knocker.
If you know he is selling machines
and moving along nicely and making
money, feel good about it. Help him
along. Shove a little. Push. Do a
little hustling yourself.
If you can say a good word about
your competitor, say it. If you are
disposed to say something mean, keep
your mouth shut. Don't be a Knocker.
No man ever got rich or happy
minding everybody's business but his
own. No man ever Climbed up permanently by knocking his neighbors
down. If you must kick, go around
behind the barn and take a good "kick
at yourself. For if you feel that way,
you're the man that needs kicking.
But whatever you do. Don't be a
Knocker.
If there is a chance to boom business,, boom it. Don't wear a long
face. Get a smile on you. Hold up
your head. Get a hold with both
hands.   Then Pull.
When a stranger drops in to see your
car, tell him it is the greatest on earth,
'it is. Don't get mulish with him, be
jolly. Get popular. It's dead easy.
Help yourself along. Push your
friends with you, also your competitors. Soon you will have a whole procession. Be a leader, and Don'tbe a
Knocktr.
All men are not alike. Some are
different. One don't like your car,
another might, but sell either one or
the other, or both.
There is wisdom 'in minding your
own business. It will make other people like you better. Better have others
get stuck on you than you get stuck
on yourself. * Nobody gets stuck on a
KNOCKER.
