Paironize your resident mer.
chants and traders every tine. Ii
you do not you stand a biz chance
to be badly beaten. Your home
merchant will not chea. you; he
cannot afford to do so; his contin-
uance IN business depends cn his
fair dealing. If the established
home trader makes any mistake
against you in trade he Is here
TO rectify the matter, and he will
always do so-business sense re.
quires this of him. The "hy.by.
night" who occasionally comes
along and offers, for a few days, TO
give you a big something for next
to nothing, is a fraud. He makes
his big plofiis by selling articles
not worth the carrying to your
homes. His gold watches con-
sist of brass cases with works in
them that are made cheap and are
worthless. You don't get bargains
from the "hy-by-nighls.' One ol
thai kind cannot travel while he is
giving away his wealth as he says
he does. 1t is strange that some
people never learn the tricks of
those transient traders who pre-
tend to sell things for less than
half their worth. When vou buv
from ore of them ynu pay double
or four times the worth of the
goods you get, and you never have
chance 10 get even. Do your
buying from those who are in legit.
innate business and are residents.
There are no traders travelling
around Tor the purpose of making
you rich by giving you goods for
very htlle money. Trade at home
and with home people.

WHY NORTHERN BANKS ARE FULL
OF MoNEY.-One reason, and per-
haps the chlei one, why the banks
in all the Northern cities are full
of money is that nearly all the
pension money, amounting TO
about $15 100000 year,is distrib-
uled almost wholly in the North
ern States. A very large part of
this money is drawn from the
South. II it came back again the
South would not have so much
cause TO complain of the pension
burden, but the amount that comes
back is loo small to be worth con.
sidering. Millions of dollars are
taken from the South every year
and distributed in the North.
The pension money is of course
paii by The pensioners to the shop
keepers in the villages and cities,
and gradually finds lis way to the
banks.
The pension money is equal to
the product of the labor of at least
100000 men, and it is great ad-
vantage which the North has over
the South. Most of The pensioners
are producers, and, doubtless a ma.
jorty of them earn living. The
$l50,060,000 annually distributed
in pensions is therefore that much
added TO the capital of the North.
Ii is moi to he wondered at, there
fore, that the North is SO much
richer than The South, nolwilh-
standing the Soulb's superior ad.
vantages.
Perhaps the fact that about all
the pension money is distributed in
the North has much TO do with the
readiness with which Northern
Congressmen-Democrats as well
as Republicans-vote to increase
the pension charge. THERE'S some
satisfaction in the thought that
they cannot increase the pension
burden very much more without
bankrupting the Treasury.-Saran

1t looks like the world is too
full of people. Our government
has shut the gates against the Chi
nese, and Oklahoma has put up
the bars against the negro, and
lheres's TOO little silver and not
enough Offices and everybody
wants something they haven't
got and there is more devilment
going on than ever before. That's
The way il looks when man reads
the newspapers. That's where all
the fuss and commotion comes
from, but when he gets away out
in the country and mingles with
the humble people and sees peace
and plenty around the comfortable
farmers home he is reassured and
feels that the nation is still safe.
A few days ago l was a welcome
guest in a family where there
were children, grandchildren, and
sons-in.law and daughters in n-law,
and all were happy and loving and

and devoutly said, "Let us worship

ever, preventive and remedial
measures were used with such po.
lency as to stamp OUT the plague
from The United States, and it has
never attained any prominence
among us since lEat time.
In the great plague of London,

all those who could afford 10 get

hook of recipes gives the following
directions for its preparation:
"Take a large handful of laven.
er blossoms and the same quantity
of sage, mint, rue, wormwood and
rose mary. Chop and mix the well.
Put them in jar with half an
ounce Of camphor that has been
dissolved in a little alcohol and

vinegar. Keep the jar for two or

II is a notable fact that these
notorious thieves did not suffer
from cholera /; and although they
robbed those who died of the dis.
ease they themselves did not suit
fer.
All this may be attributed in a
measure, 10 the precautions they
took in using their aniiseptic pre-.
paralions; and there cannot he a
doubt that their recipe was a good
one. 1t may lie greatly simplified.
All that is necessary being spirits
of camphor, in which you may put
some spice, say thyme, sage and
cloves. 1t may be advised that
you take an ordinary milk bottle
and in this put a pint of spirits of
camphor. Add some cloves, dried
thyme and sage. The proportions
are really not essential. When
the odor of each ingredient IS ap.
parent that will suffice.

WOMEN AND CRIMES.

Southern Journal.
There is great hue and cry that If
women could vote the bad women
would all rush to the polls and
the good women would not vote.
Here is an object lesson: The
convicts in the two Kentucky PEN
itentiaries have just been counted.
and it is found that there are now 1910
convicts that have to be supported by
the state. Of this number 26are women,
six white women and 20 colOred, and
1914 men. According to these statistics,
gotten up by the men themselves, there
are 81 men and -thirteenthS of q
man to every one woman.
Now. we suggest if the men voters
will take care of the 1914 bad men. the
women will agree to take care of the %
women. and we think the masculineS
Will have bigger contract on their
hands than the women. We will even
agree to take the fractional man and
make a good citizen out of him, learn
him to read the constitution and teach
him the duties of citizenship without
the use of liquid patriotism. We have
been suffragist for years, and we have
never yet heard of a bad woman who
wanted to vote. We are inclined to the
belief that it takes bad man TO make a
bad woman.
AS there are fifty-one bad men in
Kentucky to every one bad woman, the
state would be i'll no danger from the
votes of the women, but it certainly is i'll
danger now from the thousands Of bad
men who surge through the saloons and
gambling dens to the ballot box and no
moral power to offset their votes, which
are sold out to the dlStillerS and brewers
who manipulate the politics of the state.
No, the danger is not from bad women.
but from bad men. We are always glad
we were born a woman, but we are
really delighted since reading the Stats
tics above.

were good buying orders on the market with
very light offerings. But the better prices
started selling, and the big receipts in the
Northwest and Bradstreet's report of the

ate receipts and Door inspection were all
strong factors. Shorts were good buyers

more determined look in their eyes
than did these two quondam friends as
they stood ready TO begin their deSper-
ate battle for love. They shook hands.
each reiterated his promise to leave the
country if defeated, and the struggle
begun.
They were evenly matched in size
and pugilIStic skill, and for fully twenty
minutes neither seemed to have gained
any noticeable advantage. They fought
with the fury of tigers. Blood streamed
from each of their faces. for their blows
were dealt unsparipgly and with the ut
most muscular violence.
Round and rOunu the corral they
fought, now one Frustrated by blow,
now the other. They were both becOm-
ing exhausted and neither felt sure of
the victory. Gathering all his remain
ing strength, Mat dealt Tony fearful
blow between the eyes and felled him
like an OK. For moment the pros
trate man seemed stunned. then re-
gained his feet and staggered toward
his antagonist. A similar blow and
once again he went violently down.
81 amt no hog, Mat. Reckon know
wen I've got enough"
do you give it up, Tony?"
"Yes?"
"Ihar's yer EoSS!'
Tony staggered to his horse, and when
mounted, reached out his hand and
said:
"Goodby, Mat. Pm man O. my
word, an Pm goin' to ride. Don't tell
her nothin' bout this. l sha'n't pack
away no hard feelin's tO'rd you, an
We'll be friends if we ever meet agin."
"Ihar's my hand, Tony. I'll allus
think we'll n, Won GGOdhV and pnOu
luck to you"
And Tony rode away to the north
ward.
1t was two weeks before Mat got his
battered face in presentabe shape to
visit the prize which had cost him deS-
perate battle. He was welcomed by
Mrs. Rogers, who noted the scars OH his
face and the slight discoOratOn yet re-
naming about his eyes.
WHAT'S the matter o. your face, Mat?
Bin a-scrappin' with somebody's
mo; bronco busted me-"
As it was no unusual thing for cow
boy to be thrown and injured by
vicious bronco the woman said nothing
more On the subject. Mat sat uneasily
for half an hour. bored by Mrs. Rogers
voluble talk, his eyes turning toward
the door at every sound. Finally he
asked:
"Whar's Mary?"
"Gone to Roswell. Didn't you hear?"
"NO. Hear W'at?"
Gone to git married. Pop went
along"
"Married!" he gasped. "Who to?''
"Alilt Carter, of course. You see.
they've been engaged long time an
we all thought it war best to git the
thing over with before the fall roundup
begins. They're going to live at the Il
\ till Milt puts up house on his claim
down the river"
Mat didn't even pause to say good
by. Rushing from the house, he sprang
into the saddle. rode hnrriedly back to
the I X, and packed his war bag. At
daybreak the next morning he took the
trail leading to the northWard.
Day after day he rode, tracing his
partner from ranch to ranch. At last,
away up Oh the Conchas river, he found
him riding for the Bell Cattle company.
Good God! Mat, ar that you ?''
