IS IT UNFAIR TO TAKE YOUR
TRADE AWAY FROM HOME 2
The Atlanta Journal Adj
mits that this Rule is
Applicable Anywhere.

The Marietta Journal having exhaus-
ted the subject with little effect in its
own columns, since they are Marietta
product, is glad to see the Atlanta
Journal tackle the matter of people
carrying their trade away from home,
and reproduces the following editorial
in hopes that, being from Atlanta, it
may be regarded as the genuine article
and taken to heart by those whom it
hits:
The crusade which the Journal has
kept up against the habit, which is al
together too prevalent in the South,
OF buying away from home, is hearing
fruit in many places.
Other newspapers have taken up
the subject and are pressing it with
telling effect. 1t is applicable any
where, and too much of this sort Of
work cannot be done.
The Savannah Press puts the mat
ter in proper light when it asks the
pointed question, is it fair? Is it fair
for people who make their living in one
city to send TO another for supplies?
We think there can be but ore answer
to this question
The Savannah News makes the
statement on the authority OF one who
knows, that well-known grocery Louise
in New York does as large business
with Savannah people as any one
grocery store in that city Another
story is that family stated that they
never bought any thing, not even grocer
les, in Savannah, but sent to the city
from which they came-and doubtless
in which they could not make living
for whatever they wanted.
ut is impossible to condemn this
sort of thing too strongly. People who
make practice Of sending away from
home for what they need are like
leeches OF community-they get
their living out of the community and
give up nothing Any town and any
city would be far better off without
such people.
There should be aroused against
this practice such a sentiment as would
make any citizen ashamed to admit
Re sends away for things he can buy at
] home. 1t is certainly nothing to boast
OF. 1t does not show a fair spirit"

LARD EXPENSIVE AND INJURI-

Lard is not only expensive but inju-
rlous to the health when used in liberal
quantities. To make the so-called
cheap patent fiours white enough, the

it is necessary to load it up with lard in
order to make it work. This accounts
largely foryour heavy biscuits. rolls and

one-half the lard to work Clifton" that

I'M BORROWED PLUMAGE.
Well Dressed Women Who Wear
Goods sent ON Approval.

When the ways OF some women are
considered, Il Is less remarkable that
such numbers OF women dwelling IN
the large cities dress extravagantly
than before their methods OF securing
rich costumes for all occasions have
been scrutinzed.
There are women, and many Of them
very wealthy, who make Il regular
practice Of having elegant garments
sent TO their homes on approval, wear
Ing them once and then returning them

Will wear dress or a cloak 10 the

driving or visiting In IT, The average
person would be astOnished 10 know all
the things, from handsome umbrellas
and fans OF great beauty 10 Jcwelry
and clothes, that some women Dor
row from the shops.
OF course all OF these women are not
well off, but they all dress well and
go out n great deal, and although the
shopkecpcrs often discover the manner
In which they are being deceived, they
do not always Ike TO make fuss for
fear Of losing good customer. Besides
they know that II they Incur the cnmi-
~ OF such impOstOrs the women are
quite capable Of abusing their goods
and rObbing them Of other and more
honest customers. Strange as II may
seem, these women generally mlnglc in
pretty good society, or the fringes Of IT,,
and have some influence In the matter
OF dress, since they have won the repu-
taton Of always dressing elegantly and
