This is the busy season of the CAL
endar makers. Their presses are
working overtime, grinding out CAL
endars by the thousands and the hun
dred thousand and the million.
The man who is going to issue a
calendar to advertise his business has
to take time by the forelock. Some
of the orders for 1904 calendars were
placed last year. They, will be coming

have only been able to reply that they
made full investigation, and that the
man had not made out his case. There
the matter rests until the guardians
meet.
