The lunch Does Il.

More rows are caused in the busi.
ness world by indigestion than even
the doctors know anything about.
Our business men rise in a hurry, eat
breakfast in hurry and then hurry
down town. Toward I O'Clock they
rush out, get dose of underdone
beef. the half Of a mince pie and a
cup of strong coffee, and hurry back
to their Offices, feeling as though they
would ike to fight somebody. Some
one comes in who has lunched on the
same style of victuals and in the same
haste to discuss a plain business
proposition. The two are feeling
cross and sour and get to quarreling.
Each thinks the other a crank, and
both are wrong. 1t was the lunch. -

COUNTRY TOWN EDrroR.
soms Reasons Why They A-- Nearly Al
ways Poor and Unhappy.


Although country editors are nearly
always poor, there are plenty of per-
sons who believe that half the para
graphs in 4 country newspaper are
paid for with enormous brides, writes
'he author Of ~ Country Town. in
the Century. There are always two
sides to every question, and which
seer side an editor falls on. the par
eisans of the other accuse him of be-
ing bought" 1t is little wonder.
therefore, that the editor is seldom
popular man: never knew one who
was, and | never knew one who was
not often accused uniustly Probably
the people believe in brides to editors
because it is a very rare editor who
does not accuse his opponent of being
bride takeT, creating prejudice
against themselves and their calling.
Lazy and incompetent editors nearly
always explain the success of their
more vigorous opponents by declaring
that they carry on system of black
mail.
l once visited in a large city the
newspapers which / had long admired
almost with reverence. and was sur
prised to hear citizen say that what
the city really needed was better pa
pers; they would bring eastern capi-
tal." Every citizen of a country town
wants his locality s'boomed,n to the
md that he may sell his $50 lot FOR
$500; he can appreciate how a really
good paper might aid him in this, and
because his lot docs not advance in
value as he thinks 1t should, he has a
grievance against the editor. He longs
for an editor with some 'snapn in
him. | don't know what ''snapn
means, but know this is the quality
usually thought to be lacking. There
are more great men in every country
town than really exist in the entire
nation, and if they are not recognized
the local papers are of no account. |
was once bothered good deal by
certain man who said he could clean
more chickens in an hour than any
ether chicken-cleaner In the world,
and he wanted the fact mentioned.
Men who are never suspected of great
ness by other people accuse themselves
OF it to the editors, and when they re-
fuse to mention this greatness they
are told that their columns contain
great deal of stuff not half 50 inter-
esting. 1t has occurred to me that
when citizen OF a country town be-
comes drunk the first thing he does is
to hunt up the editor and tell him
what is the matter with the COM
munitY.

the worst cases Of Chronic Catarrh.
1t has proved itself right, thou

If they can't cure your Catarrh,
they'll pay you $500 in cash.

II man has corn, says the Iada
Rubber Wdrld, it can be removed, but il
he is suffering from rubber foot fever.
no chiropodist can help him, and the
only thing to prescribe is liberal bathing
of the feet and removal of the cause.
Rubbers should only be worn to keep
wet out, and they should be removed
the moment the wearer gets indoors.
Failure TO note this gives man wet feet
IN far worse sense than if he had waded
through mud ankle deep. 1t was the
trouble resulting from forcing the pers.
piration to soak the stockings aud keep
the feet perpetually damp that drove
rubber soled boots out of the .market.
