CHICAGO, July ls.-War has been de-
clared on the catalogue houses of Chicago
and other cities by the 100000 retail mer
chants OF the West, in one Of the most
striking economic movements this coun-
try ever has known. The small deal
ers are fighting as they say, for their
lives.
The mammoth institutions, employing
thousands of workers, doing their busi-
ness entirely through the medium Of
their bulky catalogues spending 10 mon
ey in the communities whence they de-
rive annually millions of dollars of pa
tronage are forcing increasing numbers
OF home merchants to the wall, and 50
their opponents claim are "making COM
mercial grave yards OF once prosperous
towns"
In this life or death struggle, jobbeIs
and manufacturers are also involved
with the retail merchants.
An organized attack on the catalogue
institutions is to be made by the Home
Trade League Of America, which has ex.
isted for several months in Chicago
largely as a publicity bureau, but which
| is shortly to incorporate and institute
a more systematic and aggressive cam
paign against the catalogue house
through board Of 2l managers, with q
! vice president and an advisory com
mittee Of 10 members from each state
Officers of the league were selected from

Origin of Barbed wira


"The luckiest invention in history "
said a patent Office official, "was that
of barbed wire. It came about nv
accident.
Isaac L. Ellwood was the inventor
OF barbed wire. In his youth he
lived in De Kalb, ILL.,, and having a
neighbor whose pigs trespassed on his
garden, he put up one day a wire
fence OF his W make. This fence
had barbs and points on it: # was
queer n ugly; but it kept out the
pigs.
1T was a real barbed wire fence.
the first In the world, and there was
millions of money in it, but young Ell.
wood and his friends laughed at its
freak appearance.
One day two strangers saw tho
renee, perceiving how well it kent ont
the pigs, realized how cheap it was
realized, in a word, it's value, and or.
dered several tons of it from Ellwood
Furthermore, they contracted to sell
for a term of years all the barrie wira
he could produce.
"Ellwood borrowed $1,000 and se+
up a little factory. A few ears later
he had paid back this loan and was
worth a small matter of SIS. 900 ooO
besides"

a MIND AT PEACE.
Truly Said to Lend Grateful Music by
Every Passer-by.

The influences of a mind at peace
are beyond all calculating. Those who
understand that the laws of the sub
tier matters work through thought
functions know that thoughts are
things and go whithersoever we send
them, that they build real a%tmospheres
around us, and hover in clouds above
and about u friends. The harmon
lied and loving mind distills its peace
through all the mental atmosphere,
waiting waves Of contentment and
pleasure as far as they reach. We
know what sweet wholesomeness
seems to be exhaled by the mere pres
ence of some people. It is the inner
harmonies of their minds permeating
the mental and moral atmosphere.
It is by the power Of such gentle
and healthful influences as these that
we give our finest sympathy to the
distressed. In u presence the wilt
ing flower raises its dropping head.
Strength is impaired to the sad and
weary heart, courage to the despair
ing, heart vitality to the loveless and
lonely. Proof ourselves against dis
aster. we mend the ills of others.
The mind that is a mansion filed
with all sweet sounds and harmonies
lends its grateful music to every pass
or.hv .

HOLY LAND BELIEFS
IMPLICIT FAITH IN POINTS ABOUT
HORSES.
Lucky and Unlucky Signs Are Many
White Stockings Highly Valued
Peculiar Marks That Show
Speed Of Animal.

The people of the Holy Land have
Implicit faith in the following points
about horses:
A white. star in the center of the
forehead Of a horse Is considered a
lucky sign.
Small ears and a small mouth in a
horse denote good breed.
Two small black spots located just
above the hoof on the white-stock-
inged left hind leg of a horse is an
unlucky sign.
In certain parts of the country a
horse is valued by the number of
white stockings he may have. If it
have one it Is said to be worth 100
coins (any coins from paras upward,
according to the breed, PAGES, etc., of
the animal.) If it have two or three
white stockings it is valued in the
same way, but if it have four then
the horse is said to be worth nothing
at all. :
A horse that is habitually paving
the ground is said to be digging its
owners grave.
A horses speed can be reckoned by
the position of the small hair twist
that Is usually found at the end of the
ribs close to the body projection on
the animals flank behind the saddle.
The higher from the ground the hair
twists the faster the animal can go.
Two hair twists placed one above
the other in the center Of the fore
head OF q horse is called a Kabr
Maftuh ("open grave"). 1t is con
sidered very unlucky to ride a horse
with this mark, as the person who
does so is destined to die within a
short space Of time thereafter.
The hair twist on a horses neck is
both a lucky and an unlucky sign. If
it curl forward toward the horses
head, it is a lucky sign, for it signifies
that the sword of the rider conquers;
If, on the other hand, it be reversed
and curl backward, then the sword OF
the enemy will conquer.
The bay colored horse is said to be
the swiftest of all the horses. A
story to illustrate this is told of a
certain Arab sheik who, having been
engaged in a fight with another tribe
was taking his fight with his little
son.
They we're both mounted on a mag
ntfcent white mare, which belonged to
the sheik, and which had always been
highly valued on account of the great
speed at which it could go. After
having ridden some little distance, the
sheik asked his son to look round
and see If they were being followed
The boy replied that there was some
one riding after them on a black
horse. The sheik seemed satisfied or
hearing this report, but presently re
peated his question. The boy an
swered that they were still being pur
sued, but this time the horse was
white. Never mind" said his father
mine is BETTER"
In a few minutes he asked a furthe,
report, and the reply given was the
same, with the difference that the
horse was a chestnut. The sheik, how
ever, put his question a fourth time:
but upon being told by his son thai
the pursuer was mounted on a bav
he cried out: Then we are lost. fo,
there is no horse which it cannot over
take" His words proved to be true
for in a short time they were caugh
up and captured.
