MAIL ORDER SYSTEM

There is a growing tendency in
Domestic circles to patronize mail
order houses rather than the local
merchants. The people seem TO
not realize that there is as good
goods in their home marked as
hose they see advertised in eastern
magazines. The wonder is that the
consumerE take Ithe chances in
buying articles upon the meager in
formation furnished them through
ostentatious advertisements.
The great clamor OF the people for
cheap goods is bringing about a
state OF affairs in the commercial
world that is anything but compli-
mentary to those who indulge in 1t.
1t is difficult to comprehend what

WHEN THERE WAS TROUBLE.
Just What Happened Between the Fat
 Man and the Conductor.

The stout man on the back plat form declined to agree with the con. ductor. The conductor thought hd hadn't paid his fare. The stout man was of the contrary opinion.
 They exchanged harsh words over the matter.
 T gave you nickel when I got aboard" said the stout man.
 q haven't taken in nickel on this trip" said the conductor.
 The stout man grew very red. Hia hair seemed to bristle.
 That's just enough of this" ho growled. T don't want to have any trouble with you. I had trouble with a conductor once. I'd hate to tell you what happened"
 The conductor drew back littlo and made no further attempt to col. feet the stout mans fare.
 But when the stout man was about to alight from the car the conductors S curiosity was too much for him.
 Say" he asked, what happened when you had that trouble with tho other conductor"
 The stout man looked back.
 "I was in the hospital six weeks" he mildly answered.

ERIE CANAL HELD ITS OWN.
Showed That Inland Waterways Wore
 by No Msans Obsolete.

When the New York Central par alleled the Erie canal, over 50 years ago. 1t looked very much as If canals were thing of the past. When the West Shore hemmed 1t in on the other side canals had fallen in public opin- ion to the raging canawl' of the humorists. But the truth is, the Erie canal did not rage at all It kept grow ing-slowly, as befits canal. When 1t was completed in 1925 it was four feet deep and 40 feet wide; in 1885 1t was deepened to six feet and took barges of 240 tons burden. Later 1t was given another foot, and was en- larged to a width of 70 feet at the top and 56 feet at the bottom, and there it remained. And while the railroads competed strenuously, its boats kept appearing at Buffalo and hauling the treasure by the only and original route to the sea. As late as 1897 it is said to have carried as much through freight as did these two trunk lines together, and it kept on doing it, despite the long-drawn jeers of locomotives.-Th Century.

BAD LANGUAGE IN ENGLAND.
Upper Glasses Adopting Vulgar Words
 and Forgetting Grammar.

Apropos of my recent remarks on the adoption of cockney expressions and the cockney accent by stallhold- CTS at fashionable bazar, says writ. CT in the Ladys Pictorial. I am not surprised to find that those who are in. terested In the English language are taking fright at the terrible havoc that Is being made with 1t by those who ought to know better. AS spoken now by the masses, English is practically another language from that spoken, say, 25 years ago by working people The school board education has given yet another accent and tone to the young person." and 1t therefore de. bends upon the upper classes to speak pure English. But it is more than re. srettable-it is, indeed. disastrous--to ind them adopting the hideous twans and meaningless vulgarisms of expres. sion of their interiors. clipping "g's" and disregarding the good od rule that verbs must agree with their nom, natives in number and pers pn. It is sad to think of what our language may have become in quarter of a cen, tury.
