One Editsr's Advice.

A western editor in recent number
OF his paper says: I'VE again desire
to call our readers attention to the
fact that they should buy everything
they use from home merchants, and
not aid in building up large establish
ments in a distant city. Did you ever
stop to think that every cent you buy
at home aids the city in which you
live, and all you send away drains the
city of that much Of the medium of ex-
change that should remain at home:
The stability of your home institutions
depends upon you and you alone. You
do not believe that, but remember
when you speak of other persons it is
said as you, and when thus explained
means you. Your trade at home will
make better mercantile establish
ments and better city. The next
time you are possessed with a Split
of getting something away from home,
gently call halt and 90 to your home
merchants and CALI for what you want
and in nine cases out of ten you will
find the desired article, but should you
fail, ask the merchant to get it for
you and see how rapidly he will &C.
commodate you, and when the price is
named and you compare it with the
catalogue you will be agreeably sur
prised. Discard the idea that you
must get something from a distance,
but instead buy at home and every
citizen become an advertising medium,
and you will be surprised at the result.
Don't say That article does not apply
to me, for what little get away from
home does not amount to anything
You are mistaken, for every little put
together make the larger things. Be
loyal and do all your trading at home. .

The Country Editor.

II conscientious effort and merit
mean anything, there is no good rea-
son why the country editor should
not expect to wear a golden crown
and diamond-studded harp in the
good world to come. His sphere is
surely one in which his usefulness Is
united only by his ability to work.
1t may be a debatable question wheth-
er the average editor of a small town
paper does more for the town than
the town does for the editor. 1t may
be true that one of the greatest sins
That can be laid at his door is that of
poverty-not poverty of brain but of
pocket. He may labor for the enlight-
eminent of an unappreciative people,
but is there not compensation in
knowing that duty is faithfully per-
formed? His efforts to boom the town
may not always meet with an encour-
aging response in the way of good
advertising patronage from the local
business interests. His work of
showing up his town as a live and
progressive place sometimes falls fiat
because OF lack or good snappy ad.

On the other hand, If there are only

Trade at Home.

Patronage of the big mail order
houses is founded largely on ignorance
and shortsightedness. In one way it
is akin to patronage of the get-rich.
quick schemes. The buyer believes he
is getting something for his money
that is really not given, and fails to
realize either where his money goes or
what he gets for it.
No one would think of telephonina
to a furniture store and asking the
dealer to send up a dozen diningroom
chairs without having seen the goods
or OF ordering dress or pair OF
shoes, or a stove, in this way. Yet
that is practically what the patron OF
the mail order house does. He orders
by mail without having seen the goods
or having any idea of their appear.
ance or character. He Is taking 4 long
chance. Two things on which he has
to base his conception of the articles
ordered Is a description in the cata,
logue and the cut given there. In 9th.
er words, the attractiveness of the
offer made depends on the promises OF
the firm and the engraver's art. It is
possible to make a very creditabla
cut from a f1imsy and worthless mod
ell. 1t is possible to descSibe an atroc.
ity in a way that makes it appear most
desirable. Incidentally it seems to be
always possible to find some one who
will accept the promise and cut at
their face value, without properly
discounting them, and on the credi-
btlity Of these people, the mali order

EvlL IN LITTLE JEAI0U8lG9.
snobbishness on Part Of Merchants
Wives Sometimes Injuries Trade

Since the time of Eve woman has
been accredited with being q jealous
creature, and in history are recorded
numerous cases where this element
has had its influence in building up
and tearing down nations. In the av-
erage rural town, among the little
evils noticed, is that often merchants
wives do not consider the wives OF the
farmers their equals socially or other
wise. One woman In q town can cast
the stigma Of snobbishness upon quite
a few others who are known as her
associates, and sometimes to the det-
riment OF the place. It may be that
wives of merchants dress better than
DO the wives and daughters of farm
ers. Possibly the children Of the town
traoesman may wear better clothes
Envy Is a knife that cuts deep, and
perhaps without apparent reason
some woman concludes that the wife
OF certain merchant thinks herself
better than the wives of the people
VINO give her husband a means of liv-
Ing. 1t is the women of the farm
household who have the greatest in.
nuence in the matter of buying. A
word from the wife will often turn
trade from the usual channel, and
this word may be caused by the atti-
tude of the merchants wife who.
through some neglect or discourtesy,
unfavorably impresses the wife of the
farmer. There is nothing like q
friendly feeling as trade stimulator.
II the wife Of the merchant would
only cultivate more closely the &C.
Quatntance and the friendship of the
women residing in the farming dis
tr1cts which give the town support,
1t would work wonders in the way of
bringing additional trade to the town.
Snobbishness never pays. The sturdy
women who reside on farms are quite
often the superiors Of those who reside
IN the towns and are perhaps the
wives OF the merchants. The boys
and girls reared on the farm average
well with those of the towns. These
facts should be realized. Petty jeal-
ous1es should be done away with
when they exist between the people
who reside in the towns and those
VINO reside in the country. 1t is best

William Ernest Mason. former senator from

mere farce and always will be until the people
insist upon electing the senators themselves. At
a recent meeting in Chicago he said:
you may think you have a representative
government, but you have not. One man in the
United States senate can block legislation that
100000 people want. There is too much wor.
ship of the almighty dollar We are too much
afraid of disturbing business. We should not for.
get that there is an eagle on the flag as well as on
the dollar and If violators of the law cannot be
punished without disturbing business then l say
