DunS.

Lots of people regard every request
made of them, either verbally or in
writing, to settle bill, as a dun. A
dun is supposed to be more or less Of
fensive.
Just why any man should find fault
because someone to whom he owes
money asks him to pay it is more
than we have ever been able to COM
prehend. If you owe man money
you ought to pay him if you can. If
you cannot, it is your business to ex-
plain why you cannot. Most people
intend, some time Or other, to pay
their bills, but not many of them are
as prompt as they should be or as they
would like to have others be.
1t is a very easy matter when asked
to pay bill, to explain to the creditor
why you ca mot do it and ask for more
time. The debtor will generally get
the extra time if he is dealing with
reasonable man. The eXasperating
thing in connection with credits is to
write letter after letter, or send state
ment after statement to a debtor, and
have him ignore them all, treating
them apparently with silent contempt.
1t is under such circumstances that
the creditors get irritated and gives
theSaccount perhaps to an attorney,
when, by the exercise of little COM
mon sense and fact upon the part of
the debtor, the matter could be easily
and amicably adjusted.
Do not look on a dun as insulting
or even approaching an insult. Do
not permit dun to irritate you. 1t
is the right of a creditor to ask for
his money when he does not get it,
and to keep asking at intervals until
he does get it.
Open accounts where you have been
carried through the season should be
paid by Nov. LIST and earlier if
possible for as a rule the party from
whom you purchased the same bought
them on credit and must pay for the
same by Oct. LIST. r.

NOTICE

1t has beeni brought to my at
tention that number of children in
our city are not attending school but
are playing truant or are being kept
at home by their parents or guardians.
Last winter there was a law passed
requiring parents and guardians and
also School Boards to see that all
children of school age attend school
under penalty unless they have a
properly executed state excuse. The
School Board is required to appoint
a Truant officer to see that the law
is enforced. l suggest to the School
Board that Chief of Police, James
Connolly, be appointen as such Truant
Officer, and 1 tender the School Board
the assistance of the police and the
support of the Mayors Office in the
enforcement of this law.

who Sets the FashionsF

What is the use in our waiting around
the anterooms OF the great dressmakers
to see whether this or that fabric, and
how much OF II, is to be worn?" writes
Kate Upson Clark In Leslie's Weekly.
Money can do anything. Let us show
proper sum to two or three of these. satraps
OF the mode, tell them that we will stand
in with them, and publish to the world
that certain fabrics-our fabrics-are TO be
fashionablei that sleeves are to be bigger
than ever, that skirts are to be longer
that hats are to be more flamboyant that
trimmings are to be more abundant. that
ribbons must be continued in favor, and
that these little canons have come to stay.
Is not business the heart OF the world
and is II not fact that the more of our
commodities there are used the better will
be our basiAess? Let us brlbe few of
the leaSing actresses and singers also--and
otheys who are considered mirrors OF fash

footsteps and right merrily our spindles

scold at the bills. What does that matter?
We hold the whip-hand, and whittier we
drive the flock must go.
How long our women, the sensible and
the Intellectual as well as the silly and
frivolous, win endure this sort of tyranny,
who can tell? There is a sort OF law. un-
written but binding, that the woman who
does not follow the fashions is unwomanly, .

The last articles which the prospective
vacationist buys and the first which she
needs on reaching her destination are the
little trifes which make correspondence
not only possible but pleasant yet the
shops never offered so many conveniences
for tourist and vacationist as they do this
year.
The overland tourist will find very con-
venient the pads Of paper which can be
folded and sealed like an envelope. These
are blocked and inclosed in a case in

books in soft leather bindings OF green or

as feather.

in new and fascinating forms. Bright red
leather covers the most stunning of these

in the flexible hook FORM Hunting scenes
