Editor Realizes Situation.

It has come to a time when the
business man must take note of the
mail order concerns. They are con-
tinually growing larger and taking
more trade out of the smaller towns.
OF course we all know that it is not
right for Williamsburg people to send
their money to Chicago or New York
or other places for their groceries,
dry goods, ETC., when we have people.
neighbors and friends selling the
same goods right at home. The local
merchant has no one to blame but
himself for the condition which now
exists. This may be a little hard, but
it is true. Many of the local mer-
chants do not let their old customers.
and prospective new ones, know of
the articles they keep by advertising
them. The mail order houses are the
largest and most successful advertis-
ers in the world, and without adver-
Using they could do no business. Now,
II they can afford to spend hundreds
OF thousands of dollars year to keep
their old customers informed and to get
new ones, the local merchant could put
a big "kink" in the mailorder business
by adopting the same method on a
smaller scale.-Wilkinsburg (Pa.)

Economy IN Home Trade.

In an address made some years ago
before congress the late Thomas B.
Reed said: Which is it better for
the farmer to do-send his supplies q
thousand miles to the seacoast, 5000
miles across the water and sell it to
the mechanic who gets less wages, o.
sell it right here at home to the me-
chanic who gets more wages?" Reeds
logic is sound, but he might have gone
little further, and shown the farmer
how important it 10 to have the home
market right at his door; how by the
building up of the commercial and
manufacturing Importance of HID
home town, he widens the market for
his products. and that. the livelier
and better the home place can be
made, the better will be the prices hs

New York.-A few days ago the re.
markable feat of sewing up a cut in a
mans heart was successfully. per-
formed by two surgeons, Drs. Blake
and Dwight, at Roosevelt hospital.
The patient, William Johnson, q
negro about IS years old, is still in the
hospital, i'll with pneumonia, but, so
far as his heart is concerned, he is
all right. 1t has healed completely.
Johnson was stabbed in the course
OF saloon row with long thin knife,
which severed the fourth rib two
inches to the left of the mid line, and
entered the heart. He left the scene
of the stabbing without telling any
one of it, and strolled about the streets
for three-quarters of an hour. The
wound appeared to be slight one,
and, as it was not bleeding, externally
at least, Johnson did not worry about
it.
BY and by, however, he began to
feel drowsy, and sat down on the curb
and put his head in his hands. Here
an acquaintance found him, drew from
him the fact that he had been stabbed,
and telephoned for an ambulance,
which carried him to Roosevelt hos
pital.
DR.. Dwight, the house surgeon,
diagnosed the case, and at once tele-
phoned DR.. Joseph A. Blake. Within
an hour and half after the stabbing
Johnson was on the operating table.
DR.. Blake performed the operation
with DIR. Dwight assisting.

BLAMED ON THE RAILROAD.
First Thought in Frishman's Mind A.
- ter the Accident. a..,..,,..s

Railroad claim-agents have little
faith in their fellow creatures. One
said recently: every time I settle a.
claim with one of these hard-headed
rural residents who wants the rail-
road to pay twice what he would
charge the butcher II he gets q sheep
killed, I think Of this story, illustra-
tive of the way some people want to-:
hold the railroad responsible for
every accident, of whatever kind, that
happens. Two Irishmen were driving
home from town one night when their,
buggy ran into a ditch, overturned,
and they were both stunned. When q
rescuer came along and revived them.
the first thing one of them said was:!
Where's the train?' Why, there's no
train around he was told. Then
where's the railroad? The nearest
railroad is three miles away he
learned. Well, WE'LL he commented.
I knew it hit us pretty hard, but +
didn't suppose it knocked US three
miles from the track"

Cutting Down on Pie,

'You may quote me all sorts OF
statistics about the rise in foodstuffs, -
said man who patronizes quick
lunch establishments, "but the best
evidence is that pie has been reduced
to the eighth cut and in many places
shows signs of being further reduced
to the sixteenth division, if not to
the vanishing point. Why, it is not so
many years ago that We used to get a
quarter of pie for nickel, but now
it is in fear and trembling that one
calls for the great American delicacy.

ingly, "some day New York will wake
up and find a rebellion in Park rox

rib, cutting from the sternum outward
to the nipple line, thence down to the
lower border of the fifth rib, thence
inward to the sternum again, along
the lower border of that rib.
This cut was deepened to the ribs,
and then the third and fifth ribs were
severed at the nipple line, the fourth
having been cut through by the
weapon that caused the wound. The
operation to this point had resulted in
the cutting of sort of trap door,
which was easily raised, and turned
back over the sternum with the costal
cartilage as hinge.
When the trap door was lifted and
the pleura exposed, the left lung COL
lapsed, and pint of blood was found
in the pleural cavity. 1t was found
that the lung itself was not injured,
but small wound was discovered in
the pericardium, or shell which in
cases the heart, from which the blood
was running. The pericardium was
then opened, and the heart itself ex-
posed. This exposure of the heart
showed the exact nature of the wound.
In the right ventricle, close to the
anterior coronary artery, there was a
wound in the heart about one-half an
inch In length, from which, at every
contraction or beat of the heart, a lit.
tie stream Of blood spurted to a
height of four inches. Examination
showed that the wound extended to
the central cavity of the heart.
The heart was grasped in the hand
to steady it, just as one would clasp a
fluttering bird in order to examine a
wound. Four stitches with silk thread
were then taken in the heart, it being
necessary to sew entirely through the
wall of the heart for that purpose The
wound was then drawn together and
the flow of blood entirely checked.
Since that time, over a week ago,
there has been no further bleeding
from the wound in the heart, which is
apparently entirely healed. Nor has
there been any sign of blood poison.

Traces of this pneumonia still per-

DR.. Schmolke rushed to the door

BURIED ALIVE FOR SIX DAYS,
Wife Finally Rescued from Living
Tomb and Lives Short Time,

London.-An extraordinary case of
intentional live burial is reported in a
medical publication. It occurred in
the Betul district, c. P.
A man named Dana was tried for
the murder of 1ndro, his wife. She
had been suffering from chronic dysen-
terry. and the husband took her and
the family to another village. Here
he appeared to have abandoned his
wife and returned with the children
to his own village. He said that he
had left the woman with an exorcist
for treatment.
The village authorities sent for the
man, however. and the wife was made
over to him. But he came back the
yame day, saying that the woman had
died on the way and that he has buried
her
Six days later a villager saw some
thing move in the jungle, and his cat
tie SHE'D when they went near the
place. A search was made by the
authorities, and they found a grave
with the leg Of 4 woman clearly WIS.,
ible. They heard her say: II am not
dead" and she also said that her hus-
band had buried her.,
After being lifted out Of the grave
and given food, the woman was sent
to the Badnur hospital and lived IL
days longer. The accused man was
sentenced to transportation for life.
The extraordinary part of the story,
apart from the callousness of the hus-
band, adds the medical paper, is the
fact that the woman must have lain
in the shallow grave, covered with
leaves and branches, for six or seven
days without food or water, and then
survived IL days longer. -. e. ;

Chance for the Youth.

Young men who are residents of
country districts should be impressed
with the fact that there are chances
for every one to get along in the
world if endowed with a good quality:
of brain matter and the desire and
the ability to work, and work rightly
and industriously.
For the young man starting out in
life there are many pitfalls; not the
ones in the category of bad habits
and dissipation, but in the business
world. The catchy advertisement in
the want columns of the daily press or
in the farm journal, $40 to $40 q day."
attracts the attention of many of the
young men who know little about the
devious methods of the sharks to catch
dollars from the pockets of the pro
ducers." Many of these concerns aim
to sell to the agent lot of goods that
are almost wholly worthless, and let
him fight it out the best way possible.
Then again, there are legitimate con-
Germs that employ men to sell to the
trade, but they never hold out prom.
ises of such great profits.
It is we'll to steer clear OF gratis
that are intended to take dollars from
your pocket under the pretense of CIV
ing you employment. II you fell that
you could make success as a sales.
man, there are legitimate houses in
your nearest city that may afford you
an opportunity. But don't think that
you can demand the salary of bank
president from the start. You will ret
what you are worth, and no more.
The more you can make your services
OF value to your employers, the more
pay you will receive. Good men are
always in demand. Chances for ad-
vancement were never better, but the
field is narrowing year by year, owing
to change in commercial methods, and
concentration in almost every line.
II you would succeed in commercial
life, get the idea out of your head
that getting to the front is q snap,
and the path a fowery one. Work ii
necessary If you find an honored place
among the winners. - -
