Clever and Witty.

Edward Salisbury Field, whose
work for the big magazines has made
his name known in every land where
may be found a magazine, has recent,
ly published a book, In Pursuit of
Priscilla" which is as interesting as
one could wish for. The characters
are two men, a girl, dog and an au.
tomobile, and not only has the au.
thor evolved a plot which holds the
interest from the first episode through
all those that, like sudden flashlights,
dazzlingly follow, but he has also en-.
livened his narrative by cleverness
and wit of the conversations between
his hero and heroine whose make.
and-break courtship keeps the read
er's attention in a condition as nimble
as the brains of the chief characters.

ENDED THE BIBLE READING.
Beginner Resented Wifc's Enjoyment
of His Mlstake.


A Kansas City man, who had fol-
lowed stock quotations, football scores
and rae form sheets more closely
than he had religious and literary mat
ters, recently was persuaded by his
wife to read aloud each evening from
the Old Testament to improve the
knowledge of both on Biblical matters.
The man became interested in the
story of the scriptures and read aloud
several evenings with great gusto and
pleasure. One night as he was swing
ing along he read: And they horse
whipped the BEASTS"
Hold on" exclaimed his wife.
what was that?"
"They horsewhipped the beasts" he
repeated, and continued reading. His
wife got up from her sewing, crossed
the room, looked over his shoulder and
read:
They worshiped the beasts
There" she said, Il knew the word
horsewhipped was not in the Bible.
He! He!"
The man closed the Bible with a
snap, clasped the snap, and that con.
cluded the readings for all time.

Home Patronage Lesson.

The west is the section that pro-
duces the wheat that supplies the ma
ton with bread. In almost every
wheat-growing section there are -four
ing mills. Yet how often do we find
that people of these districts demand
-four made in a foreign place. This
principle is wrong. There is a loss
to the district. When wheat is shipped
from one state into another or from
the district where it is grown to some
other district and then made into
-four which is returned to the people
for their use, there is a considerable
loss to the community. There is the
commission to the grain dealers, the
freight paid on the wheat, and the
freight paid on the flour back to the
place, and not least is the employment
of labor in the manufacture. There is
much to be gained through the pat
ronage of every home institution,
whether 1t be a manufacturing enter
prise or a mercantile ICE The
community is made Weather by
keeping in it all the dollars that are
the result of the labor of the people.

Right Kind Of Advertising.

Not long since in a western town
of some 1000 population the mer-
chants had an illustration of what can
be done by judicious advertising. The
proprietor of a clothing and dry goods
store decided that he would add a
grocery department. This was met
with the disapproVal of other mer-
chants in the town, particularly the
grocers. They combined and COM
menced an advertising campaign di-
prected. chiefly against him. Small
space was used. They were greatly
surprised one morning to find that the
object of their attention had in tie
daily paper a four-page advertisement.
They were further surprised when the
weeklies of the surrounding towns
came out with n and two-page adj
v-ertisements, Offering wonderful bar
gains and to pay the railroad fare of
those who would purchase a certain
amount of goods. For miles around
the town large posters announced the
great sale. Other merchants OF the
town looked upon the venture as fool
ish, and predicted that there was
something wrong, a failure or a fire in
sight. Neither happened, but in two
weeks time the enterprising store
keeper, who advertised to sell Is
pounds Of ~granulated sugar for a dol
lar, when the jobbing price was more
than five dollars a hundred, provided
the purchaser ordered other goods, did
a business amounting to more than
$4,000. or as much business as the
average small storekeeper does in q
year. Not alone that, but he is still
doing the biggest business in the town.
He advertised rightly.

MAIL ORDER HOUSE EVIL.
System Keeps Many Agricultural
Towns from Advancing.

There is no use in claiming that
mail order houses are illegitimate
concerns. They are entitled to exist
as well as the small merchant. There
can be no doubt as to the p%erfectness
of the system that they are conducted
upon. No use in denying that now
and then they fail to give satisfaction
to their customers. So do the NOR
chants in all lines of trade. He who
believes that these great concerns are
not injurious to the merchants in the
smaller cities and towns knows little
about their operations. Then how is
it. that the mail order houses are in
furious to the people of the land?
Great economists agree that it is the
concentration of capital and power in
the large cities wherein rests the dan
gers that threaten the people. The
mail order houses are great factors in
this concentration. They are suckers
of the blood of the country, the
mediums that take from communities
where it is earned the money that
should be retained by the people for
the development and enrichment of
their own communities. Herein is the
mail order house evil. On these
grounds all wise people will do what
eve lies in their power to head off
the greater growth of the system. Any
| system should be retained within it's
limits for the greater development of
its and general enrichment,
is a bad system and should be decried.
1t is not sufficient that the consumers
retain the profits that should go to the
tradesmen of the place. BY this there
is little development of industry. The
towns and cities lose the business that
is necessary to employ the people,
while the wealth to an extent may be
| retained.

New Public Utilities Managed IN 4
Way That Retards Progress.

It should be borne In mind that tho
investment of outside capital, the
ownership Of public and semi-public
utilities by others than residents OF a
community, is a serious thing for the
people residing In the place. In west
ern cities there are hundreds of illus.
trations of the working out OF this
plan Of securing public utilities. There
is need Of a water-works. Outsiders
come into the field with a proposition.
The city or town council is approached
and the final result is that a franchise
covering rs to so years is granted.
The works are built. People are then
compelled to pay highest rates to
NEE. interest on bonds and watered
stocks. The company perhaps pays
taxes less proportionately than the
residents of the town are compelled
to pay, and the only money left III
the community that is earned by the
operation of the plant are the taxes
paid, the wages of the few laborers
employed, and the salaries that a few
straw" officers draw. All the profits
are drawn to the owners of the plant
in some other city, generally Wall
street. New York. Thus is built up
in the community to some other place.
It is the same with street-car sys-
TENS, electric and gas lighting plants
and all other semi-public and public
utilities under private ownership, and
in which outside capital is chiefly IN
vested.
Should these utilities be owned by
home capital, all the earnings would
be retained in the community, to seek
investment in other improvements and
the people would receive a general
benefit. There is no argument that
can prove that foreign ownership Of
any enterprise is good for a commu-
nifty. Any system, it matters not
whether in a commercial line, financial
or other branch, that takes from a
community the earnings of the people
and uses them for the enrichment OF
other sections, is a wrong system.
Let business men of every town get
these facts fixed indelibly in their
heads. Let commercial club enthusi-
asts settle down to the fact that when
through their work any enterprise is
built up that mean continual drain
ON the u of the place, it is
better there be no commercial club.
If there are any enterprising citizens
enough in a place to invest in their own
town in this way, the town should
have no difficulty in stimulating a
municipal ownership sentiment and
have the good work carried on. Com
mercial clubs are all right, but it is
often that they are operated all wrong
than all right.

FOUND A WAY
To Be Clear of the Coffee Troubles.


Husband and myself both had the

there was an organ in his body that
was not affected.
Il told him | felt sure his sickness
was due to coffee and after some dis
cussion he decided to give it up.
1T was a struggle because of the
powerful habit. One day we heard
about Postum and concluded to try it.
and then it was easy to leave off
coffee.
His fearful headaches grew less
frequent, his complexion began to
clear, kidneys grew better until at
last he was a new man altogether, as
a result of leaving off coffee and TAX

as my husband, l was always very
nervous and never at any time very
strong, only weighing 95 lbs. before
/ began to use Postum. Now I weigh
