Habit is relentless taskmaster and
almost every man on earth is its
slave. We have way of atting into
ruts and losing our individuality. We
are slaves to ambition and In reaching
for our goal we forget the world about
us and its countless beauties. We dig
and delve and struggle and strive for
our one prime object, forgetful of the
environment that lies just beyond our
everyday surroundings. In that broad
er environment Is rest and Joy and
new life. In the Office and street and
home we become mechanical; we 90
and come over the same routes. do
the same things and naturally think
the same thoughts day after day. We
are the slaves of habit! We owe our
selves, our families and our business
interests de',t which we are ignoring.
Lest we forget that recreation and
relief from the routine of business is
a good paying investment as we'll as
pleasure, 1t would be wise to stop
short, set a date. take a rest, enjoy
the broad fields, the fresh air. and the
quiet of the country and snap our
fingers in the face of that taskmaster
who has made us an ahject drudge.

A correspondent at Irvington, Ill,
writing to his home paper, the Ashley
Gazette, gives some pointed facts
about mail order houses and how to
lessen their trade, and how some mer-
chants may hold their customers. Here
is what he says:
IF our home merchants would adj
vertise their goods properly the large
supply houses would find their trade
falling off in the country districts.
The big department stores advertise
and give prices on every article, while
the home merchant if he advertises at
ALL seldom quotes prices. We like to
read in our home papers the prices for
which we can buy goods from our
home dealer, together with a descrip-
ton of the goods so that we may know
what we can purchase from our home
stores. The home merchant, nine
times in ten, sells his goods as cheap
as the same grade of goods are sold
by any Of the big supply houses, but
their customers don't know it. A mer-
chant must not think that even his
best customers are so familiar with
his goods and prices that he knows
all about it without being informed.
We can buy as cheap at home as we
can anywhere, and it is the merchants
duty to educate his customers to that
belief. Printers ink is the great busi-
ness educator. An average of about
$500 per month is sent away from
Irvington to mail order houses In DIS
tant cities for supplies, the greater
part of which could be bought at home
as cheap.

His Time for Giving.

Marcus DAILY, the mining millionaire
left fortune Of $11.OOO,OO0 and was
accounted one of the most generous or
the rich mine owners. He had his own
ideas, however, about the time and
place Of giving.
"A newspaper woman called upon
him one evening for contribution to
a newsboys' home.
These poor little flowers OF the
street" said she. couldn't you give me
a goodly sum for themY
There are only one kind OF flowers
l like" answered the miner.
What are they, Mr.. DAILY"
-Four o'clocks. They never collect
honey after closing time in the after
noon"
The visitor took the hint. Her next

been commonly supposed to be. AS

seem to be imperative on the men in
charge of it to make service in it as de-
sirable as possible. This is matter

nal treatment is an endless, hopeless
task. Some simple wash or ointment
is often beneficial when the skin is
much infamed or itches, but you can't
depend upon local remedies for perma-
nent relief, for the blood is continually
throwing off impurities which irritate
and clog the glands and pores Of
the skin, and as long as the blood fe-
mains unhealthy, just SO long will the
eruptions last. To effectually and per-
manently cure skin troubles the blood
must be purified and the system
thoroughly cleansed and built up, and

an element of strength. This is as
true Of a country as of an individual;
but the strength of the United States
lies more in differences of soil and va
riety of climate than In mere extent
Of territory. These differences mean
diversified products-a fact which the
crop reports bring out at glance-and
therefore reduced liability of wide
spread suffering through local crop
failures. II there is country on the
face of the earth where famine is
absolutely impossible, this is it. In
ordinary times we raise not merely the
food we ourselves need, but large
share also Of what Europe eats. Our
ration is not confined to one or two
things, but consists of wheat. both
winter and spring; corn, oats, rye, bar
ley, rice, potatoes, and many kinds of
fruit; beef mutton, poultry, pork, milk,
butter and eggs. Meteorological condi-
tons which should blight or destroy
more than a small part Of this great
food supply are almost inconceivable.
At least they are unheard Of. And
there remain those other great crops,
cotton and hay, which, although they
do not in themselves furnish food to
man. yet indirectly put food into the
mouths of millions. Sections may suf
fer as New England has suffered from
drought and some parts Of the West

but little patches on the great agricul-

moves prosperously on from year to

A MOSQUITO THAT
DOES NOT BITE.

If we must have mosquitoes at
all, people will regret that the new
species of these insects which DR..
William l.. Underwood has discov-
cred is a native of the Maine woods
instead of more populous parts of
the country. For this mosquito does
not bite, although it is so large that
if it were given to biting it would
be a terror; and moreover, its Larvae
feed eagerly upon the Larvae of other
species of mosquitoes. For this
reason experiments are being made
to determine if the new mosquito
will thrive in the climate of south
ern New England. 1t has received
the name of EucOrethrd Underwood.
It's manner OF disposing of the larvae
of other mosquitoes is calculated to
make sufferers from recent mosquito
bites gleeful. "The victim is caught, "

violently few times, and swallow

CARRIERS FIGHT ON FEVER.


Congressman Garner is bestirring
himself in the matter of attempting
to forever prevent the temperance
of yellow fever on the Texas Mex
lean border.
Surgeon General Wyman told
Mr.. Garner today that he had taken
the situation up with the secretary
Of the treasury and that he hoped
soon to be able to begin negotiations
with the Mexican officials. Mr..
Garner has written to State Health
Officer Tabor, telling him of the
correspondence he has had with the
surgeon general and urging him to
visit the Mexican health officers
with view of reaching an agree
ment as to how the fever conditions
should best be met and handled.
Mr. Garner and the other Texas
members who have become active
along this line feel confident that
their efforts will meet with success.
