PRESS CLUB INVESTIGATES.

The Press Club which met in
Boise Monday and Tuesday, discussed
the matter Of having a state printery
owned and operated BY the state, and
differed 50 widely they appointed a
commission to gather data on the
subject to see how they have worked
in other states where they have been
tried.
The matter OF a state franchise
commission to devise means Of edu-
eating people more fully in the princi-
Piles Of popular government, was also
discussed, 1t being urged that poll
tical affiliations are more a matter
OF heredity than of study and judy
ment, and In giving the franchise to
woman it is more necessary to teach
these things than where only half of
the citizens and pupils have any rea-
son for taking an active part in the
study Of civil government.

HOW TO LIVE
TO CELEBRATE YOUR ONE-HUN-
DREDTH BfRTHDAY

Keep your body clean inside and out.
Live three hours outdoors daily. Use
no stimulants. Avoid extremes in all
things. Avoid dying at the top
your brains should be the last part Of
you to die, if you USE them. Don't
eat or drink things yourself you know
your dog wouldn't.
| In this day and generation your
eyes play large part in regards to
the health Of your body they re-
lquire one-third Of your brain to func-
ton them If working under normal
conditions, and more than that if de-
lfective. II they use more than one
third they are using strength that
belongs to some other part of your
body and therefore weakening you at
some point. Hence to live to one
hundred you must see that your eyes
Iare in a normal condition by having
them scientifically examined by
specialist at least once in three years.

In a Presidential Year.

This Is presidential year, and the
alarmist. the dry-goods box philoso-
pher and the calamity howlers of diff
ferent breeds and opinions are abroad
in the land. Presidential years are
'off' years. so they say. and the most
leyel-headed old-timer shakes his head
with doubt when he speaks of the con-
ditions throughout the land. There is
little cause for a tightening up in
the affairs. more cautiousness in finan-
cial and commercial centers in gem
eral. This year there are no such pre-
sentiments" Of evil as generally mark
presidential years. Business goes on
just the same as 1t has during the
past half dozen years or more, only
there is evidence that men are not
losing their heads and are carefully
considering possibilities. The agri-
cultural sections are particularly for
tunate in the fact that their pros
perity depends little upon the fuctua-
tons of stocks or securities. 'Tis
the wealth Of land and live stock that
counts, and while any depression may
to a certain extent influence price, it
will require greater calamity than
a change in administration to par
alyze agricultural industries.

6AlL-oRDER TRICKS.
Prices Manipulated to Give Erroneous
Impressions of Cheapness.

The catalogue houses make such In
roads into the business of the dealers
who chiefly rely upon country trade.
that in some localities merchants can't
be blamed for the complaints they
make. Much can be done by the mer-
chant to prevent his customers send
ing to such concerns for goods, II he
will but make the effort. Sometimes
little solid reasoning Will have the
right effect. Any man of common
sense knows that the basis of all
prices is the cost of production.
There must be a paying profit in the
business OF manufacturing, and al
lowance made for cost of placing On
the market. The purchaser should be
satisfied that the manufacturer and
the dealer made a fair, honest profit.
The farmer estimates his profit on
the cost of growing his products. On
many crops and on his cattle and
hogs his percentage of gain Is much
more than the storekeeper makes
upon the goods he sells. A little rea-
soning along these lines with explana-
tions that II low prices are made
there must be inferior goods supplied,
will perhaps help to keep many peo-
pie from sending away for goods.
One trick of the catalogue houses is
to classify goods by sizes as to make
a very low price on goods little in de-
mand. and large profits on goods
mostly called for. The one who looks
at the list to see prices finds his eye
-
naturally concludes that the whole
line Is lower. If a careful examination
of the list be made the trick would be
found, and an average of the list
would show that the articles most
called for are higher than would be
asked by the home merchant

COUNTRY STORE EXPENSE LIGHT
Local Merchants Should Be Able to
Meet City Store Competition.

In the matter of expense of conduct
ing business. the country merchant
has far the edge over the storekeep-
er of the large city. He has lower
taxes, his insurance is not SO high
neither has he to pay his help such
high wages as the city merchant. In
fact, the country merchant can sell
goods lower than the big city store.
and make money-that is If he is
good buyer and gets his goods at the
price he ought to buy them at. 1t is
all tommy-rot to say that the depart
ment store sells goods for quality any
lower than does the average country
merchant. The reason is plain-de-
partment storekeeper or the mail-or-
der. house can't do it, because ex-
penses are SO much higher. Walk
into department store, ask TO see
a line of hats, mems hats, or a line of
shoes. Note the prices marked and
then drop into country store. pick
out the same quality, let 1t be the
same make of goods. What will you
find? That the country store asks
fully 10 to 20 per cent. less than the
same goods are sold for in the big
city store.

Live Business Men tho Ones Who
Make the Greatest Success.

Tho man in business is out to win
or he wouldn't be in business. There
are many little details that must be
looked after. must be studied and
which are essential to success. Many
merchants. particularly In small
towns, are kept SO busy wrapping up
bits OF ginghams. weighing out sugar
and doing the hundred and three 9TH
er things, that they think they have
no time to give all these little essen
tiais attention. These days the mer-
chant is really up against hard
game. unless he keeps right in line

Browns method is pretty good.
Brown has captured a good trade,
and on some lines gets sitter prices.

rangement OF his goods. He has
place for everything, and everything
properly in Its place, and displayed to
the greatest advantage. He hasn't

himself is no slouch. his attire is plain

and system that such an establishment
demands. The extent of its transac-

large quantities of manufacturers and
producers at prices often very much
below the retail rates. Among Its ad-
juncts are large meat room. where
meat in vast quantities is constantly

to work without confusion.
