A Remittance Mans Problem

The third story of Stewart Edward
Whites series Arizona Nights" appears
in McClure's for March. The Cattle
mans Yarn" is a rafting good one, letting
you into the ways Of remittance men in
the west. The remittance man in the
cattleman's story is, contrary to his kind,
a good fellow, who shoots straight and
works hard When title and a fortune
are left him he goes back to England but
he can't escape the fascination of the
plains. To return means to lose both
money and title. How he works out his
problem makes as interesting story as
the anthor Of The Silent Places" has told
In long time.

Women are more often afflicted
with kidney disorders than men, but
attribute the symptoms to diseases
peculiar to their sex, while in reality
the kidneys are deranged Nervous
ness, headache, puffy or dark circles
under the eyes pain in the back, are
signs OF kidney trouble that must not
be ignored, or a serious malady will
result. Foley's Kidney Cure has re-

SHOULD BE A WINNER
w. ID Ballou Applies for IA Patent on
n Much Needed Invention.


In the consignment of goods from one
city to another the wholesale merchants
of the country are rapidly finding them
selves up against very stiff proposition
so far as the dry goods box is concerned.
The rapid decmstion of the pine and hem
lock forests and the resultant increase in
the price Of lumber has made the cost Of
boxes an expensive feature in the trans
mission OF goods from one place to an
other Each succeeding year finds the
cost or packages proportlonately higher
and large shippers have already begun
casting about for some feasible solution to
the problem
Drawing his cue from the idea embod-
led in the canvas bread basket manu-
factured by the Balou Basket Works, Mr..
Ballou, while in Chicago some time ago
talked with some of the large shippers in
that city in regard to canvas shipping
cases. The objection was raised that the
canvas cases were not hardly substantial
enough for the shipment of paste board
boxes. This suggestion quickly appealed
TO Mr. Ballou ingenuity and he was soon
at work on a scheme TO overcome this oh
stace with the result that he has made
application TO the patent office for pat
ent on canvas covered basket lined
shipping case. The claims for the case
are lightness, durability and economy.
The shipper packs his goods in one OF
the shipping cases and conslgns them to
the purchaser, charging MIN for the case
with the option OF returning the same at
the owner S expense, two or three trips
being sufficient to save the cost OF the
case Mr., Balou has evidently solved the
packing box problem in a most satisfac-
tory manner and with the granting of a
patent on this new device will undoubted-
ly acquire business the extent of which
can only be measured by the volume of
business Of the country. 1t is |
certainly a winner.
