Changes in Business Methods.

Radical changes have taken place in the
methods of doing business within the last
decade. Ten or twenty years ago the mer-
chant bought his goods in anticipation of a
certain demand If trade was dull, he
still had the goods on his shelves or in his
storeroom, where they were apt to prove a
dead loss. Nowadays the manufacturers Of
genuinely good articles stand back of their
productions. The makers of Pages Poul-
try Food, for instance, guarantee to take
back all their Food that is not sold at the
end of the season; thus the agent or mer-
chant is secured against loss, and at the
same time is given an opportunity to max e
handsome profit from selling the best egg
producer in the world Send your name on
postal card to C. S. Page, Hyde Park, VT,

the other day. Their net had been
out for hours, and they were about
to pull ashore in despair when they
saw the big floats suddenly swish
around under the impetus of a heavy
body. They knew at once that they
had made a strike, and no small one
at that, and they began to pull in
with renewed hope and energy.
Denn was at the front hauling on the
net and trying to suppress his ex-
citement while he toiled on the lines
and whistled for luck. He was grad
ually drawing the big fish to the boat
when it gave an extra heavy lunge
and started off to reach deep water
and liberty again. The pull was too
much for Denn. He tugged with all
his might, but the fish tugged hard
est, and over into the river went fish
erman, net and all.
Leaving the boat to care for itself,
Dennis hardy partner sprang nimbly
to the rescue, and after a deal of
effort finally succeeded in getting a
hook fast in the net and a line out
to DEM. The two men then worked
together and landed the biggest stur-
geon of the season. It weighed 800
pounds, and besides the flesh yielded
a full keg of caviar, worth $40 a keg.

complished until one tries, and this
fact is illustrated by a photograph
which shows a young moose in har-
ness, drawing a small carriage with a
little girl in it.
Inasmuch as the animal is perfect
ly gentle and tractable, there is no
danger to the driver. The moose can
run pretty fast in its native wilds, but
it is not a 2:1O trotter between shafts,
and this charming outfit cannot be
expected to go at a dangerous pace.
Unfortunately, this valuable species
of animal is being driven out of ex-
istenee by hunters, and before very

is no hope of utilizing the moose on
any considerable scale as a domesti-

he can be of some benefit to his fam
lily and not a great lazy loafer."
So the Widow Thornton made up
a list of eligible men in the vicinity
and decided upon William Bernard,
one of the hired men on her farm.
William was still in his twenties, had
no bad habits, of a gentle DISPOSE
tion, and strong and hearty. Il
don't believe that William is liable to
get his foot over the traces or kick
the dashboard" said the Widow
Thornton. 'Ill marry William"
That night at supper the Widow
Thornton said to the hired hand:
william, we may as well get mar
ried. The house is big enough for
two. It's a shame to have so much
room in this great big place wasted.
I'll give you an income of $3.50 a year,
William. You'll be expected to look
after the chores as usual, William.
Bring the buggy around to the front
door tomorrow morning at ten
o'clock, William, and we VIII go down
to the Methodist preachers and be
married"
"Yessum," said William, meekly.
After the Widow Thornton became
Mrs. Bernard she found she had made
a mistake. William put on airs. He
seemed TO think that as the husband
of his former employer it was be-
meath his dignity to milk the COWS
night and morning, and he positively
declined to run the clothes wringer
on washdays. He refused to let his
spouse bring him up in the way he
should go, but instead made frequent
trips down ter the city" and put on
more style than the leading man of
a stock company. William COM
menced smoking real "see-gars" and
wearing hand-painted neckties.
The end came one day when Viii
liam put on his store clothes, lit a
"see-gar," and calmly started down
the road to the depot to take the
train for Cincinnati. Mrs. Bernard
wanted him to come back and agitate
the washing on the washboard. VIII
liam said nit" Mrs. Bernard went
in pursuit and, catching up with her
spouse, shot him in the fOCt.
William returned home. Mrs. Ber-
nard sued for divorce. 1t was grant
ed, but the judge said seeing that
William was proposed to that he
shoull have S43 a year alimony.
