The last key was then fastened to the others; the blade ground sharp, tempered. 0 iu Inserted In the groove. Finally, pieces of the keyring were fitted in biindH around the bone, through notches cut in the ends-othe Rteel hlade. The result was a knife, with a narrow cutting edge of fine steel.

According to a story told by former Governor Stokes of New Jersey, at a recent banquet, vanity Is not confined exclusively to the female sex of the human sjiecles. 4 In a small town over in Jeraey, Mr. Stokes said, there Is a corner grocery where you may buy anything from a twenty-foo- t ladder to a pearl necklace. Adhesive plaster, saner kraut and toilet articles are also sold, and In case of necessity you may get a haircut or a horse shod in the back yard.
