Thriving swiss Community Control
led by worLinRmen


Indiana claims the one model city
in the United States-a city where the
wOrkingInen own, control and operate
the factories and fix the price of Ia
Dor. Tell City is the name OF this
place. 1t is situated in Perry county,
says the Cincinnati Enquirer. The
toilers are formed into companies and
operate their factories singly. There
Is, however, no common purse for citl-
Zens. Each man must make q living
for his own family, but the matter of
employment Is SO simplified that the
difficulty of this is minimized. The
city was founded In 1858 by the Swiss
Colonization society of Cincinnati.
Each factO:y in the city Is owned by
stock company of citizens. They
We're started years ago, the first in
1856, by small sums furnished by in
dividuals. Year by year the business
grew and as soon as a dividend was
declared this money was added to that
already in the business.
In this way new buildings were
tltClChf anu great SullS Vi luOllel
were eventually invested in the indus
tries which have made Tell City a
flourishlng town and famous as a
manufacturing center of wooden uten-
sils Of all kinds. Each stakeholder in
factory at Tell City is a working
man. Each company selects its own
board Of managers and superintend-
ent. These men are always stock
holders. Each member OF the corpora
ton Is entitled to as many votes as he
has shares Of stock. Each laborer Is
paid at the end of the week according
to the amount Of work done or ut
stipulated sum per hour. A dividend
Is declared annually.
The various Industries employ 500
workmen. and represent nearly $780,
600 Of capital In addition to this
about 200 men are given employment
by the chair factories Gaming chairs,
which work Is done by hand at the
workmen's homes. The leading prod
ucts of the city are furniture, desks.
mantels, wagons. hubs, hub blocks.
spokes, br0oms, baskets, shingles. rail-
road ties, flour and meal, harness
slaves, barrels. toys, wooden goods,
bricks. dressed lumber. brandy,
whisky, wine and beer. There are no
unemployed people at Tell City. Ev-
erybody Is busy and contented. Most
Of the workingmen own their own
homes

Advantages Claimed For This Meth
cd of Attracting Trade.
The street fair takes the place Of the
agricultural fair, and the following ad-
vantages are claimed for it: First,
that as the attractions are In the bust
ness centers visitors to the towns are
not drawn away from the stores. but
attracted to them, and, secondly, that
II being In the nature of q free show
there will be large number of visit
ors. In the agricultural fairs mer-
chants who wished to make the most
Of the crowds had to purchase space
for booth in the fair grounds, and
there was the further cost Of attend
ing to the booth in addition to the
store.
In the street fair 1t is argued that
as the store Is right where the fair Is
held the expense Of hiring space is OBJ
waited, for the retailer can build his
booth right on the sidewalk or street
in front Of his store, which is for the
time his own premises, and can at
tend to both at the same time with
out additional help. We are told that
many who would never expend any
money to gain trade ut fair ground
are willing to contribute to the street
fair fund and also make q consider
able expenditure for erecting booths
or otherwise identifying the fronts of
their stores, AS a rule these fairs
seem to have been a success. Where
they have failed, the failure is said to
have been due to the license allowed

LETTER TO DR.. A. Ellie.
Island Pond, VI.

Dear Sir: For your house, no matter
what's the matter with tit isn't a hui
man you know-aprescription:
Devoe lead and zinc. Apply with a
brush, from one to three coats-gct a
painter to do it.
Your state chemist knows all about
Deyoe; has analysed it; reports it
pure will analyze it occasionally. lie
buys it wherever he likes--it is gener-
ally in the best paint-store in town.
You know what the color and dryer
are for; do you know what the lead and
zine and oil are for? Not being Il
painter, you may not choose to know /;
but we'll tell you.
Lead and zinc and oil combine to
form a rubbery waterproof coat to keep
out dampness. That's the whole bust
hess.
The oil would do it alone lead and
oil would do it, without the zinc; zinc
and oil without the lead; but the three
together are best, because they wear best.
We say to you, get apainter," as we'd
say to him "get doctor"-every man
to his trade. Can't all be painters and
doctors; don't want to.
You will he more successful in pros
porous looking house: and he in good
health. Take good care of one another.

els constipated, yellow with jaundice, or
have sick head ache, cure yourself with
Bakers Mandrake Bitters, and then eat
reasonably of wholesome food and enjoy
it. After you are cured an occasional

keep You well. Price % cents per bot
