from the wholesaler or manufacturer
and It will be sent to the purchaser
in as good condition and short time
as if it had been ordered from cata-
logue house. The home merchants
business must be kept up and in order
to do this it is absolutely necessary
that the people at home patronize
him and help him keep up with the
times, or else he will soon be out OF
the struggle for existence among the
country people.
The home merchant should not be
expected to pay the highest price for
produce and farm products and then
be turned down by the seller of these
articles when he wants anything in
the merchants line. He should be the
first one to be consulted when the
farmer intends buying. He should be
seen and arrangements made for the
purchase of the article, if he does not
carey 1t in stock.
The home merchant advertises or
should advertise, in the home paper
This keeps the home paper in the field
and helps the community along. The
people take the home paper because
it gives all the local news that they
cannot get any other way and thus the
advertisements of the merchants are
read by them. If the people do not
patronize the home merchant he can
not afford to advertise, and without
advertising paper will soon prove a
failure. Soon the home paper is sent
to the wall for the want of support
from the merchants; it may have a
large circulation. but without the mer-
chants help it will soon be lost to
sight Then the merchant is next to
get out of business for the want OF
support, and the town will decrease In
population, and the people will won
der what the trouble is when the
editor and the merchant leave town
together.
The home merchant contributes to
the support of the church, he pays
his taxes to keep the schools up, he
contributes to the horse show, the fall
festival, and the hundred and one
things that he is supposed to help out
and give his support to. He is at the
head Of the list for everything that is
for the good of the community and he
deserves the honest and hearty Co
operation of all the people, all the
time, that are interested in the well
fare of the community in which they
live The merchant helps to elect the
men that are to represent them in the
city, county, state and national af-

THE Milwaukee Sentinel has decided
the Thaw case in advance-that is, it
has decided it the way it thinks the
jury should decide the case. But as
the SentinePs political decisions have
all turned out otherwise than predicted
for, 10, these many years, it may not
be infallible in its positive assertions
concerning matters along other lines.

account of the cree don, when ''the
Lord God said, 1t is not good that
the man should be alone; / will make

words hove become curiously combin-

constantly used as one. Moreover,
the confusion is increased by the cor

and Macaulay writes of the waiting

The above head is subject that
can well be treated as open for dis
cussion and consideration at any and
all times. 1t is also a subject that
should interest all persons who have
at heart the welfare of the community
in which he lives and who wishes to
see it grow and prosper.
No person can afford to do what he
knows will work an injury to the COM
munity in which he lives. In justice
to himself he cannot refuse his sup
port to the home industries that are
striving for existence and the welfare
of the town in which he goes to do his
trading.
In considering this question 1t
should be borne in mind that the coun-
try people, like all other American
citizens, are always on the lockout for
will bring them the biggest returns
for the least expenditure; in this they
are right and are justified in so doing,
but, at the same time they should re-
member that they are dependent on
the home merchant for the money that
they send to foreign markets.
IF they should stop to think how
these catalogue houses are operated
and look into, and know, the true con-
dition of affairs, probably they would
reconsider the stand they had taken
toward them. In many cases the peo-
pie are ignorant of the true surround
ings and inside operations of these
concerns and think they are doing
right in sending them their money.
I They are led to believe that what they
get from the catalogue house is the
same article that the home merchant
sells, only at a much lower price. The
majority of the people do not know
that they are buying the cheapest
article that can be manufactured and
