SEND STAMPS FOR MONEY.

1t is estimated that Wichita jobbers
receive $1,000 annually in postage
stamps, in payment for orders from
country merchants These stamps re-
duce the salary of the postmaster
Of Wichita about $500 annually. Cou1-
try merchants are very loyal to their
towns, and remit in stamps when they
can to swell the receipts of their home
postoffice. J5b5ers often become over
loaded with stamps. and many refuse to
receive them.

THEY SAY AMEN HARD.

The Salvation Army and the American
volunteers, the contesting order, are no;
dwelling in Wichita in exact peace. For
Long time the two orders kept diplo-
matte silence in regard TO each other.
IL IS not SO now. The Volunteers, in
their street services, push the Stars and
Stripes prominently to the front and de-
clare in polemical tones that they are

AN OLD SHAVING MTG

One of the first snares laid for unwary
youth is the BARRIERS recommendation of
g shaving mug. The youth orders the
mug, usually beautifully designed
thing in green with the youths name
in gold letters. No boy ever succeeds in
getting through life without buying one
Of these mugs. In a barber shop in this
city is mug which J. P. Allen bought
thirty years ago. It is just as brilliant
as it was the day he bought it, when
it must have filed his youthful and
whisker-loving soul with delight.

TO BE THE NEW CLERK.

B. B. Cushman, who will be clerk OF
the new federal court here, came to
Wichita 'just before the boom" and, as

appointed Cushman private secretary.

Outside VIEWS OF WICHITA.
Neodesha Register: Not to be out
done by the newsnongers Of Wichita in
the way of war scares, those Of Chicago
claim to nave the edge on "inside news"
of England and Japan's intentions in
regard TO the Chinese situation.
Newton Republican: From present
appearances, Wichita in her postoffice
fight, is seeking to manipulate the en-
tire Seventh district politics.
Dave Leahy: The late William
Shapespeare has double in the meet
ing of the School Teachers association
at Topeka. Professor knight OF Wich-
ita is, in personal appearance and to
considerable extent in mentality, almost
duplicate of the Bard of Avon.
Kansas City Times: Mark Hanna has
double in Kansas in the person of H.
c.. Toler. Mr.. Toler, however, is not
responsible for the public announcement
&C the fact.
Topeka Capital: Mr.. Duncan OF the
Rock Island has been offered promo
ton which would locate him at Wich-
ita. He refused it, preferring to live in
Topeka
Kansas City Journal: Mrs. Lease has
been absent from home so much that
Mr.. Lease is plucking up courage. He
stopped a desperate criminal the other
day and turned him over to the officers
Topeka Mail and Breeze: A Wichita
man, VINO invented the wax p1onograph
cylinder, and, through the failure OF the
original company, never got much out OF
it, is TOW working on the sunflower and
thinks he can make the sticky substance
which eXudes from the sunfiower into
covering for bicycle tires The sun
flower is getting to the front, and will
be one of the boss products Of the state
sooner or later. The seed Of the sum
flower is equal to the best iiEseed oil,
and the stalks make hotter fire than
coal. No bug, so far, has come on deck
to molest the sunf1ower or make it afraid
but that may be because nobody was
paying any attention to it or trying TO
make anything out OF it Let it be
known that the sunf1ower is good
thing and no doubt a half dozen varie-
ties of bugs will begin 10 camp on its
trail

COULDN'T READ QUO vADIs.

Judge Henry Siuss tried 10 read "Quo
Vadis," the work which every one is

nrst books of the decade. Judge Sluss
couldn't read it. He got over to the ban
quet by Nero and then threw the book
down in disgust. He refuses to try it

SLOT MACHINES STALE.
