THE SUBSTITUTION EVIL.

\ moral thief is not legal thief in
the eyes OF the law, and by that token
many man is at home when his right
full place is in jail. But the question
is: Shall we, as a public, help this sort
of man along? And this question brings
itself home with peculiar force to
women, who are the buying power of
our country A man, by dint of thought
and work, invents an article of food,
of wearing apparel, or for domestic
use. He carries out his conception: he
gets it ready for the market: he recog-
niZes the requirements of the law of
the land and patents his article: he i'll
vests large sums of money in letting
the people know about it, and he makes
success. That is, thousands buy the
result of the thought of his brain, the
investment Of his money, and his honest,
legitimate, methods. .Glong comes a
man who has no brain wherewith to
conceive except to trade upon the other
mans success, and ''Uneeda Biscuit" be-
comes "Unwanta Biscuit" ''Jap-a-lac"
becomes "Jac-a-lac"; :" Cottlene" be
comes "Cottoleo"; Pears Soap be
comes Peers Soap" and so on, An
these limitations are purely and palp
ably intended to mislead the public, to
does not need to invent: he has no call
to invest capital: he goes on the wave
of popular support created by the man
who legitimately launched the result
of his honest thought. Such a parasite
not only lives on the brain and capital
of another, but he also distinctly hopes
to get an undeServe6 livelihood by
playing, upon the creduhty of the pub
| lic He is a coward, as is proved by
the fact that he initiates. His article
| is never so good as that which he imi-
tates, for the same moral twist that
| plays upon name will play upon the
| quality of the article. AS "A matter of
| fact, he has no need TO think of the
quality of his article, for he relies for
! his sales on his misleading label: hence,
quality to him, is of slight Importance,
and therein lies the fraud against the
consuming public.
The bid for patronage upon which
i he usually catches the eye of the thrifty
woman is his untruthful assurance
that his article sis just as good as
Others and-here comes in his strong
point-''it is cheaper in price And
| thus thousands of women are fooled ::
trapped into supporting moral thief
and business coWard-a man whom
decent business men Shun-and getting
a cheaper article at cheaper price. A
, woman sometimes fails to realize that
she has it in her power to raise the
standard of American business honesty
by refusal to patronize such imita-
tions. For just in proportion as she
makes it easier or harder for these
moral thieves to succeed, so does she
make the business of honest dealings
| e., l.
Business will be honest just so far as
the public demands it shall be. The
two or three cents saved by a woman
in her support of an initiative article
represents the costilest investment she
can make toward the lowering of those
, business ideals with which her son
must sooner or later battle when he
/ goes out into the commercial world.
1t is she who, by her patronage, builds
up or tears down honest business ideals.

Rest is the great restortr. We tire our
muscles by exercise and then rest to restore
them yet great many of us do not stop to
think how little rest we give to our
stomachs. AS usual thing no part of our
bodies is so generally overworked as our
digestive organs. tired and overworked
stomach will give signs of distress to which
we pay no heed until at last Dyspepsia
takes hold. Indigestion is just a warning,
and if we heed the warning we can easily
avoid further consequences. KODOL is a
most thorough stomach relief. 1t digests
what you eat and gives the stomach the
needed rest and greatly assists in restoring
it to its normal activity and usefulness.
KODOL is sold on guarantee relief plan.
1t is sold here by R. II. Moody.
