So we have adopted Nature's own way to make VELVET the smoothest smoking tobacco slow, patient ageing. Men may "process," but they can't put into tobacco any 'finer pipe qualities than those Kentucky's limestone soil so richly gives to the Burky de Luxe. But these qualities can be improved. They are brought out in their fullness in the aged-in-the-wood mellowness of cool, slow-burning VELVET. For two years the finest Burley leaf remains in sealed wooden casks, and then only is it ready to be made into VELVET. , Get your tin now join the growing ranks of the army who have found VELVET tobacco a delight without a single drawback.

The Ideal Home Auto Stage Schedule. To Change Umbrella Handles. 8omctlmea a persou would like to Changs an expensive umbrella handle to another umbrella and fasten it on solid. This can be done by cleaning oat the hole left in tbe handle from the old rod and Oiling the bole with pow dered sulphur. Place the handle in a solid upright position and after beating the umbrella rod red hot push the rod down into the hole containing the sul phur. The hot rod fuses the sulphur, snd when cool It will bold the rod solid. This method ma; bo applied to fastening rods into stone, Iron or wood. Popular Mechanics. Lord Eeber, who when president of the English court of appeal used to keep up a running Are of chaff on learned counsol, sometimes got t Ro land for his Oliver, as when a young barrister in the couree of argument stated that no reasonable person could doubt one particular proposition. 'But I doubt It very much," said the Judge.' The youthful advocate, not one whit abashed, replied, "I siild no reasonable person, my lord."
