eliminated practically the entire
stage coaching industry. The instan-
ces are number less. 1t has all belong
ed to the same development of pro-
gress. 1t has all contributed to the
good of the many. The little fellow
who stood in the way has had to step
aside and seek other avenues of utili-
ty. The pathos of the situation,
viewed from the little fellows stand
point, should be relieved by the fact
that few have starved because of the
readjustment of conditions. On the
contrary the condition of a large ma
jority has been bettered.
Under new conditions the crossroads
soloist can be more useful to himself
and to the world in some other reIa-
tion. He should hasten to readjust
himself.

New Appliance For Opticians.

DR.. Swezey has just installed in his
office equipment a fine new ophthal-
moscopic and retinoscopic appliance
for use in treating defective eyesight.
The new instrument performs with
accuracy the determining of diff
culties in vision, and the rectification
of the same. which has heretofore
been attempted by opticians without
apparatus, but with uncertain result.
1t is a valuable and useful addition
to his office facilities.

He is Left Behind.

The crossroads merchant, a pathet-
ic figure, is singing his swan song in
wailing key. 1t is song against pro-
gress, soliquizes the Souix City Jour-
nal. The world is moving on, and
the village merchant is sitting on the
fence and begging the procession to
stop. The world may pause long
enough to sympathize for a moment
with the mourner, but it will move
on again. Its progress is not to be
stayed by little things, and, unfor-
tunately for him, the village trader is
only fly OH the rapidly moving COM
mercial wheel.
First it was the system of rural de-
livery which aroused the protest of
the country general store proprietor.
Under the old order the farmers must
come to the village for their mail,
and, while there, might be induced to
buy something at the general store.
With the mail carried to the farmers
daily, the crossroads lost its attrac-
tion. When they wanted to do some
shopping they made bigger business
of it and drove to the county metrop-
oils. The village dealer asked that
his interests be protected by restoring
the old system, but neither the pa
irons of the rural routes nor the
officers of the postal department could
see it that way Then the rural tele-
phone came along. and that placed
| the farmers into closer communication
with the larger towns and cities. The
country dealer filed his protest, but
the telephone wires kept stringing
out. The rural trolly followed the
telephone and is affording the farmer
rapid and easy facilities for reaching
the cities with his wares and bring
ing back goods in return. That looked
like huge calamity to tie cross
roads man. and he voiced his protest.
but vainly. There is no subject upon
which community can be interested
so readily today as proposal to con-
struct an interurban or rural trolly
line
The rural merchant is one of the
martyrs to the advance of civilization
In early days, when means of COM
munication and transportation were
few and far between, he served use
tul purpose. He took full advantage
of his opportunity. His stock never
was long on quantity, quality or var.
iety. He never was noted for the low
prices of his wares. Within his sphere
OF influence he was quite little
monopolist, and the people who had
to come to him for things often COM
planned of his Indifference to their de-
mands for bargains. Still, he was
useful and the world used him, and
paid him for his trouble. Now it has
found something better, and the once
magnate of the crossroads has found
his utility gone.
The pathetic figure at the crossroads
has its counterpart in the towns and
cities. The wagonmaker's little shop
has closed its doors in favor of the
big city factory. The big department
store has put many little shopkeeper
out of existence The railways nave

CEN women and girls be organized
into trade unions with success? Can
they through organization stand to-
gether and battle for their rights in
the face of opposition from their en-
ployers?
These are questions that are fire.
quently asked today. and many earnest
union men still look upon unions Of
women with something akin to suspi-
cion, believing that they are but tenn
porary affairs, formed for some specific
purpose and Immediately that purpose
is accomplished they disband.
There is another class of men who
still cling to the old idea that the prop
er sphere of woman Is in the home.
This class does not seem TO reckon on
the changes In industrial development
which have forced women and young
girls into the factory.
1t Is hardly necessary to discuss the
Inter phase of the question, for the
place of the woman in the Industrial
field IS firmly established, thanks to
our modern methods of production.
There is perhaps no city In the coun-
try that can furnish as good an illus
tration of the effects of women In
trade unions rs Chicago. In no other
city has the work of organization been
carried out as successfully, and the re
suits have amply demonstrated that
women can be rs active and stanch I'M

be quoted where strikes have occurred
In that city, involving both men and
women, and the men were the first to
return to work without having gained
the concessions they demanded.
The women have proved that their
unionism was not of the passive order,
but an active force. While most of the
unions of women in Chicago are of re
cent origin. the present indications
point to their remnining an important
