If one kills himself, he is called a /
suicide, if he kills his brother he is call
ed fraticide. if he kills someone of no
kin he is homicide, but if he kills his
home town by sending away to buy
things he ought to buy at home he be-
comes the entire lot of sscides' mixed
into one. We wonder if people who
continually buy goods away from home
ever think of the tendency of this ne.
farious practice. They are helping to
kill the town in which they live by de-
stroying it's business and lowering the
price Of its real estate and driving out
its population. Enough people engaged
in this business will depopulate any
town in short time.
