The Country Merchant.

Here is something from the
Clipper which we can appropriate
with profit just at this time and
add the further application to the
small country merchant who does
not advertise because he can't
afford to 60 into it as extensively
as his larger neighbor. Read it.
1t is good sound common sense:
.'The country merchant is
making a great talk about the
mail order houses in the big cities
who are getting trade away from
him, but with all this outcry he
is really making no serions effort
to prevent it says the Advertising
World. You can't stop the peo-
pie from buying where they think
they can buy the cheapest, simply
by the use of invective. The only
way the country merchant can
hope to compete with the mail
order houses is by meeting them
on their own grounds-by adver-
tising.
"There is absolutely no hope
for the business of the country
merchant until he corrects few
of his time worn views about adj
vertising. Advertising is simply
telling what you have to sell and
the price. 1t makes no difference
if your ads are not written by an
expert or illustrated by high
priced artist, you can make them
effective and result producing, if
YOU bear in mind the one point
that an ad should tell about what
you have to sell and not simply
about yourself.
1.-The advertising done by the
average country merchant is usu-
ally something frightful. He
does not consider advertising a
force by which he is to directly
| increase his business, but as a leg
pulling proposition ON the part of
the local newspaper. Any old
thing will do him in the way of an
announcement, and the smaller
the space the ediotr will let him
down with, the better the bargain
he hnagines he has made. Some
merchants carry nothing but
stereotyped card, year in aud year
Fout, vet if they stopped to think
they find they have dozens OF
things they could sell at less than

MODES FOR WOMEN.

Plaid waistcoats are very fashionable with tailor made suits of piece-dye1 textiles; also large. irregular checks. They are made with pointed fronts and look best when out on the cross.
 The flaring billowy decorations on the skirts of elegant summer gowns are newly arranged below the knee, and on the latest models from over the sea appear in the most graceful, artistic and charming guises.
 The round skirt idea for suits. rather short than otherwise, is becoming daily more popular. The sleeves of these suits, though still close fitting, are now often made to not quite reach the wrist, allowing thus the addition of the favor ite white undcrsleeve.
 A very fashionable and pretty lit,lc novelty and a suitable complement of any toilet is a high, straight neckband formed of superposed folds of colored mousseline de cole or net This is adorned at the back by a voluminous choru or band of the same, having in it's center a small brooch or buckle. Very light shades and white are gener- ally prepared for these collarettes.
 The newest French sleeve models show the most approved forms of the elbow styles arranged in every sort of quaint and fanciful form, and also shapely coat shapes with picturesque finish at the top and about the wrists, the wrinkled mousquetaire forms. and the grace fut bell styles with dainty un- dersleeves of gathered null. batlste, net, or chiffon.

PHOENIX, ARIZONA, MAY 26, 1901.

Last night at midnight the curtain fell on the saloon singer, who has been
 wont to emit a kind of THE SONG harmony, which might OF THE be styled undenomina- DYING SWAN tional music. Some of
 the songs were not erotic. many were not outrageously vulgar, though in most of them the high note was prevalent. The girls some times tried to even up things for the satisfaction of those in whom the artistic in- stinct and strong religious senti- ment has happily blended. by singing immediately after some particular chic air. "Nearer My God to Thee" or Cor onation." or more frequently the Holy City" which If not orthodox, Is cer- tainly not unorthodox.
 The better element refused to accept this sliding, or rather undu'ating musical scale. and the girls had to go. and with them an institution which has prevailed in Phoenix from the earliest times.
 This is the third town in Arizona to legislate against the saloon singer Tucson first set out on that moral avenue, and it is claimed that the town has been in every way the better for 1t. When Globe became a corpora tion the saloon singer was excluded. but since the disincorporation Globe has beckoned to her to return. She has probably seen her last of Phoenix The reform element which threw her out was not made up wholly of persons who had 1t in for her. Perhaps those who favored her banishment for purely moral reasons were in a small min ority, but then nothing could be said in her favor. and not a voice was raised. The party which hereafter makes a move in her behalf will be overwhelmingly beaten at the next municipal election.

The Yuma Sun has a new cause of worry. and fears the fate of Port Arthur. which the Standard Oil com pany purchased to secure control of the oil output of Texas. The Suns ap- prehension is premature. The Stan dard oil company never throws its tentacles about community until there are more distinct signs of oil than have. so far, been discovered in ths vicinity of Yuma. It cannot be said of this great corporation that it is a gambler It is never the first on the ground floor, though 1t ultimately gets there.

Mothers. or those who have the care
 of young children, can not exercise too great reasonable ANGEROUS watchfu,ness over their
 SEASON FOR diet at this season of CHILDREN. the year. The human stomach is not, of course, such a tender organ as many cranks would' have us believe, for there are comparatively few things which the child's appetite craves that cannot be digested. Yet there are some things which cause a serious and sometimes fatal derangement. We
 have occasion to metion this morn- ing the death of a child of men, ingitis, directly traceable to the eating in a large quantity of unripe fruit.
 Hardly year passes in which one or more deaths of Phoenix children in the mulberry season are not rs- ported. Many believe, in consequence, that there is poison in the mulberry which is. on the contrary. one of the most healthful of fruits, if eaten at the right time. The mulberries which have made the trouble are those defective berries which. though not apparently unripe, fall to the ground prematurely, They are diseased and poisonous and danger turks in the eating of large quantity of them. Parents would do we'll to warn their children that for the next month all fruit should be eaten under home supervision. There is al- most as great danger in over ripe fruit perhaps in the fruit itself a greater danger from an active poison, though by the time fruit becomes over ripe the youthful appetite has been dulled and 1t is taken in greater moderation.

 Negro labor that was sent from this country to Hawaii has not been sue cessful, 1t Is oaid. The work Is all right. but the negro does not adjust himself. Conditions are too good for him in some things, and not good enough in others. He had good house on the plantation. fuel. food. and me l. ical attendance, and S20 a month wages. but instead of being worked from morning morning till night. his daily task was measured by the Asia'.c standard. The result was that the negro got done about o'clock in the afternoon. and had the rest of the day 10 himself The result of this was that craps began to flourish in an unwont ed way. and some of the negroes began to desert the plantations and flock to Honolulu to play crapo continually. But this discouraging story is told of negroes that went from Tennessee and were used to city life. Negroes frorl Alabama on an adjoining plantation have succeeded better.

Now that such phenomenal develop ments in oil production are daily being made in the south there are most hope full reasons for believing that mineral oil will largely replace ether combusli- bles az fuel. It is merely a matter of mechanical application, and where ne- cessity or economy dictates mechanical ingenuity readily finds the adaptation. Already many railways are economical ly using fuel as oil In locomotives. The Southern Pacific has changed most of its coal burners on it's California lines to oil burners and President Hays says if oil can be had at a reasonable price the Atlantic division locomotives will be SD equipped. Certainly the "oil gushers' of Texas should settle the matter of cost.

RoUGHS MOB A MINISTER.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 5.-The
Rev. John King was mobbed at Zellers-
burg last night. and but for protection
afforded by friends he would have been
roughly handled ~ crowd of the
friends Of Harry C;Hyun, saloonkeeper
Of the town.
On Sunday Mr.. King referred to the
sale of intoxicants in the town, and the
next day he was assaulted by Gwynn, and
knocked down on the street. Gwynn vol
unfairly surrendered to the officers, and
was fined 81 and costs. The assault caused
great deal of feeling among the tenn
perance people, and Mr. King declared
that he would not be deferred from max
ing war on the saloons. and announced
that he would speak last night on the
subject, why Should There Be Seven
Saloons in Your TOWN.
Ea-ly yesterday morning he was
warned that there would be trouble II
he attempted to deliver the address. He
went to the church In the evening and
found 1t packed to the doors by the rough
element of the town and surrounding
country. AS soon as he appeared in the
pulpit and began to talk eggs We're thrown
at him and sticks and stones were hurled
from all parts Of the house. while a great
uproar drowned his voice so he could not

finally prevailed on him to leave the
church, and they escorted him out
through the crowd. Soon after he reached
his boarding house the mob appeared and
tried to force it's way into the house. but
was driven away by the threats OF the
owner to fire On them.
Gwynn says the lecture will not be de-
hgered in the place, and threatens the
officers If they attempt to protect the
minister.
