Material Man.
And let us speak a word for Mr..
Printer Man also. He is a part OF
this community; he contributes to Its
prosperity; he advertises 1t. and he is
entitled to his place in the circle
through which the community's dol
lars are to circulate. When you, Mr..
Merchant, want printing Of any kind,
give the Job to the home printer.
The dollar that you spend with him
he will again spend with you, and
both will make a profit on it. 1t is
but fair that he have this. his legiti-
mate portion of the home trade. He
is as much part Of the community
as yourself, and as much entitled to
your support as you are entitled to
the support of the farmer. the me-
chanic, the preacher, the doctor.

It preached but does not want to prac.
tice 1t himself. The merchant who
sends his saving account to the city
bank for safe keeping is not entitled
to the support Of the community
whose money he takes from 1t. The
merchant who will not patronize his
brother merchants, who makes his
visits to the city an excuse for buy
ing his own household supplies, sup
plies that are not carried on his own
shelves, Of the city merchants, is not
entitled to the support of the COM
munity. Such merchant wants to
preach but not practice home trade.
He wants to do with the community's
dollars just what he condemns in
others-send them away from the
community. He would bankrupt the
community for selash interests.

We hear much Of the strength of

REASON FOR ALL THINGS.
Customs That Now Seem Peculiar Had
Origin in Wisdom.

OTi0iH III WlSuOTtl.
II you are patient enough to ferret
1t out you will find that there is rea-
son for every little idiosyncrasy we
have, for every queer thing we do
Take, for example. the wearing of
widows caps. Why do widows cover
their heads with these curious little
arrangements OF maline, crepe and
lace? 1t is custom handed down to
us from the Romans, who shaved their
heads when they mourned the loss OF
dear one. This idea was all right
for men who did not mind appearing
without single spear OF hair on their
leads, but of course 1t was most un-
attractive for women. No one, not
even a Roman matron, liked to be
seen bald-headed, so the women of
the Tiber devised little cap to hide
their badness, and thus the custom
has come down to us. even though
heads are no longer shaved as a sign
of mourning.
The reason that bells are tolled for
the dead is that years ago, when toll
ing was first established. the people
thought that the sound of the bells
frightened away evil spirits who how
cred near the dead.
Why do men. and women, too, wear
bows on the left side of their hats?
The reason is simple enough. When
the head covering built upon the order
of hats of to-day was first introduced
It was-ornamented with ribbon which
went around the crown aud hung down
in two ends on the left side. reaching
below the shoulder. These ends were
a sort OF anchor. or safety line, aud
were put there expressly to be seized
when sudden gust Of wind threaten
ed to blow the hat away The ribbons
we're put on the left side because, as
general thing. the left hand was more
apt to be free than the right. Eventu-
ally these ribbons werss knotted in
fetching bow with flowing ends. and
then they were cut on quite close to
the hat, so that they form a very
small and stin bow knot
