SURVIVES HIGH VOLTAGE.
Ray City Mans Gold Ring Melts
When Finger Goes.

Bay City, Mich, July 3o.-Former
Alderman Harmon Yon, employed by
the street railway company, had one
ear and one finger burned off this
morning through contact with high
tension electric wires. Yon had
climbed to a distributing pole plat
form at the power house and was cut
ting a heavy bare copper wire. His
ear touched a bare spot on another
wire. The little finger of one hand
dropped off when he released himself.
A gold ring on one finger was melted
and had fused with the iron of his
pliers so that the ring had to be cut
off in order to get the pliers away
from his hand A hole was burned
nearly through one palm. Despite the
terrible injuries Yon climbed down
the mole unaSsisted.

age of injustice to the community it.
self. In the first place, some merchant
loses the profit on sale. Not only
that, but the price Of the article rep
resents so much of the merchants cap
ital which is tied UP In the article and
is not working. Having capital tied
up means that the operations of the
merchant are curtailed to that extent.
He has that much less to spend; that
much less to pay in salaries to his
clerks; to pay in patronage of the
butcher, the baker and the other pur-
veyors of the necessities of life; to in
vest in property, in newspaper adVer-
Using; to deposit in bank where it
may be used by other members of the
community, or to devote to church or
charity. The money which goes to the
mail order house decreases the per
capita of circulation in the community;
a factor which determines largely the
value Of all goods or property on the
market; the scale of wages and the in
terest on loans.
1t is not hard to trace the effect of
the diversion of money from its 1egiti-
nate channels. When money is scarce
trade languishes because of the lack
of circulating medium; merchants and
all others curtail expenses; the volume
Of trade decreases and nothing re-
stores activity in trade but an increase
from some quarter of the. circulating
medium. When the volume Of money
increases, trade moves and it moves
as fast as the volume of money will
permit. Money that Is working is con-
stantly producing profit to all; money
that is not working produces stagna-
ton in trade.
Accordingly, it is to the interest of
every member of community to con-
fine his expenditures as nearly as pos
sible to the community in which he
lives. Every dollar he spends at home
helps to make his own holdings more
valuable because they are more salable.
When community has money with
which to- buy there is little difficulty
to sell and if the money is not divert
ed, it revolves constantly in the fnan-
cial circle Of the community, earning
a profit for everyone who handles it
and turns it over.
Accordingly, the money spent at
home is bearing compound interest for
the community. It's effect is apparent
even to the outsider. Spending money
at home is a species of loyalty which
makes materially for the progress of
the community. If the community is
composed of the sort of people who
spend their money at home it adj
vances rapidly. There is money for
public improvements. money for new
enterprises. The money which the
loyal man makes at home is invested
at home; the city grows, the streets
are improved and the marks of pros
perity and progress are evident on
every side.
We are wont to inYeigh against the
wealthy man who makes his money In
one town and invests it in another.
We criticize him for want OF loyalty

A Terrible Punishment.

A man suspected of treason in Mo-
rocco was punished by having the flesh
in his hand sliced, the wound filled
with salt end the whole hand sewed
up in leather. 1t is a common belief
that this punishment causes mortifica-
ton to set in and that the hand de-
composes, but such is not the case, for
by the time the leather wears off the
hand is rendered useless and remains
cloRed forever. 1t is punishment not
often in Use, but is sometimes done in
cases of murder or constant theft, as,
without in any way injuring the health
Of the maa, it prevents his committing

the goods, but will often send his
money to mail order house with
blind faith that the article will prove
to be as represented. How often this
faith is misplaced can be proven only
by comparing the goods bought from
mail order houses with the goods of.
fered for sale at home. If the mail
order buyer would follow this system
for a little while, he would probably
find that the goods offered at home are
of better quality and as good bargains
as the mail order goods, taking quail
ity into consideration. If this pre-
sumption is true. the buyer of mail or
der goods is a distinct loser, as he has
secured inferior goods and has robbed
the community in which he lives, as
we'll as himself, of the use of the
money. +. r. SINGLETON.

TRADING AT HOME
MANY REASONS WHY IT is THE
BEST POLICY.
SELF-NTEREST A BIG FEATURE
That Which Benefits the Community
as Whole Benefits Each Indl-
Viduai-Ths "Why and
Wherefore"

AS seiGinterest is the law which gov.
ems the transactions of trade, it is the
first light in which the subject of
Trading at Home" must be treated.
Sentiment has little influence in trade.
The prosperity of any community
depends on the volume of business
transacted within its borders. The
facility with which business can be
transacted depends largely upon the
amount Of money in circulation and
any influence which takes money out
Of a community is detrimental to the
financial welfare of the community.
1t is in this respect that trading with
mail order houses cripples a COM
munity. Money which should be kept
in local circulation goes to swell the
volume Of money in the distant city
instead of remaining at home to be
turned over and over again as the me-
dunn of transfer among local mer-
chants and their customers.
The effect of this diversion of money
Is not confined to the merchants who
lose sales thereby; it extends eventu-
ally to every member of the COM
munity. 1t is curtailment of business
which affects the value of all property
even to the labor of the man who is
dependent On a days work for his Iiv-
ing. It reacts upon the people who
purchase away from home in degree
which more than offsets any possible
saving in price that may be effected in
the purchase.
Every dollar sent out of any COM
munity for goods which can be pur-
chased at home represents a percent
