These catalogue houses do not pay

chant does. They do not build side

to the building Of roads over which

In disposing Of that he Il absolutely
dependent upon his local merchant,
and by his patronage OF the catalogue
houses he has killed competition, and

what he has to sell.
Mr.. Farmer, are you helping to kill

egg?
Are you sending your dollars to the

Ing the local Industries of your town?
Are you putting your merchants out
of business, and creating monopoly
that win pay you what It pleases for
the products of your farm?
II you are doing these things 1t is
time for you to stop and consider the
future. You will have to look but
little way ahead to see the result, and
1t will not be an attractive picture that
greets you. The prosperous COM
munity Of which you are now part
will fade like the summer flowers be-
fore the winter winds, and almost as
quickly.
1t is the fact that there is a market
within close proximity to your farm
that makes your acres valuable. The
men who maintain this local market
for you are the men who cause the
railroad trains to stop at your town.
Take them away and soon the town
will be wiped OF the map. The
churches will close for lack Of support.
The schools will cease to be pride.
and your sons and daughters will lack
the opportunity that Is theirs by right
OF birth, and your acres, that are now
valuable because they lie In close
proximity to market, will show
depreciation that will astonish you.
Your interests are identical with
those Of the merchants Of your town.
BY sending your dollars to the city
you may cause the merchants to close
their establishments, but when they
are forced to this they ran pack their

They do not help to build school
houses for your children; the local
merchant does. They do not assist in
the support Of your churches; the
local merchant does.
But there are some things the cata-
logue houses do for you and the
first and greatest Of these is to assist
materially in bankrupting your COM
munity. The dollars they take away
never come back TO you. They will
never help to make a city Of your vii
lage. They will never increase the
value of your real-estate holdings by
making local improvements.
Let us look at the subject from the
standpoint of the farmer, for 1t Is the
farmer who is the greatest patron OF
the catalogue houses.
The town or village one, two or
three miles from his home Is his mar
ket for the butter and eggs and other
produce OF his farm. The half dozen
or more merchants Of the town, each
anxious to obtain his full share Of the
business of the community, maintain
a competition that affords to the
farmer at all times top prices for the
products of his farm. It Is these half
dozen merchants that make farm
profits possible; the profits are in no
way due to the catalogue houses OF
the cities.
But the farmer persists in sending
his dollars to the city. He wants q
buggy. or a set of harness, or q pair
of stockings, or any of the necessities
or luxuries of life, and to get them he
takes out his mail order catalogue and
looks at the finely printed cuts, reads
the well written description, and, pass.
ing the local merchant by, the mer.
chant who has purchased his produce
at the best market prices. the mer-
chant who has helped to build the
community, he sends his dollars to
the catalogue house In the city and
takes what they choose to send him.
What rs the result?
One after another the doors Of the
local stores are closed, and where at
one time there were half dozen mer-
chants. each bidding for his share Of
patronage by Offering fair prices for
that which the farmer had to sell,
there IL now but one merchant who
has monopoly. not only of the SELL
ing, but Of the buying as well. and he
pays what hs pleases for the farmers
produce.
The farmer can continue TO send his
money to the catalogue house in the
city for his supplies, but he cannot
send his produce to the same place.

his part with decorum and dignity. He
wears exactly the same kind OF blue

NEVER TIRES
OF the Food That Restored Her to
Health.

sickly, suffering from indigestion and
inflammatory rheumatism.
II had tried different kinds OF diet,
plain living, and many OF the remedies
recommended, but got no better.
Finally, about five weeks ago,
mother suggested that I try Grape
Nuts, and 1 began at once, eating 1t
with little cream or milk. A change
for the better began at once.
To-day l am well and am gaining
weight and strength all the time. I've
gained 10 lbs. IN the last five weeks
and do not suffer any more from indt-
gestion and the rheumatism Is all

The flavor Of Grape-Nuts Is peculiar
to itself. It Is neutral. not too sweet
and has an agreeable, healthful quail
fly that never grows tfresome.
One Of the sources OF rheumatism
Is from overlooking the system with
acid material, the result Of imperfect
digestion and assimilation.
As soon as improper food Is aban-
doned and Grape-Nuts r. taken regu-
larry, digestion Is made strong, the or
gans do their work Of building up good
