THE STORE BUYER.
His Task of Selecting Good Sellers"
Is a Hard One.

His Task of Selecting "eood Sellers"
is Hard One.
Whoever has had difficulty in decid-
ing which of two or more articles on
a counter he will purchase may be
able to appreciate the task which con-
fronts the buyer of n stock Of mer-
chandise, says a writer in Golfers.
The numbers of varieties offered for
selection are almost beyond belief. In
the toy department Of a large whole
sale house the following figures were
obtained in regard to the goods actual
ly being shown at one time in the sam
pie rooms;
Magic lanterns. 25O varieties; boats,
300 varieties horns. 1000 varieties;
Christmas tree ornaments. 1900 vari-
cites: dolls. 1900 varieties.
In gathering this assortment Of
Christmas tree ornaments il was nee
essary to deal with $50 manufactur-
ers throughout Europe. and the selec-
ton Of 1000 samples represents only
a fraction Of the samples submitted
by manufacturers.
When IT is considered that almost
every person uses dishes at three meals
a day and that the prices Of plates
may range from a few cents each to
$1,000 OF more n set. It IS not surpris-
ing to learn that the same wholesaler
would display In his sample rooms
over 10000 varieties of articles In
china.
The Duycr has within such ranges Of
variety opportunity to make or break
the patronage OF a store by the wis
dom he uses IN making his selections.

The potato bug is probably the great
est obstacle to the raising Of potatoes.
but Notwithstanding the deadly work
Of this pest it is easily controlled If
resort is made to arseuical poisOns. A
good method is to hand pick these
bugs. but it is tedious task. The
most popular course is to use paris
green either as dust or as part Of
LIQUID solution II the bugs are taken
as soon as they appear it will seldom
be necessary to treat the; entire field.
The bugs, being killed on the part Of
the field where they appear. viii have
no opportunity to extend their labOrs
to other parts. \ recommended treat
ment is one pound Of pure paris green
to $50 gallons Of water. When dust is
used one pound Of the paris green may
be mixed with fifty pounds Of air
slaked Iue and the resulting powder
applied by being sifted over the plants
with some kind of box in which are
small holes. \ good sized pepper bcx
is found sprviceable. In such a case 1t
IS better TO apply the dust while the
cew IS on the vines.

Rheumatic

Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her"
MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Royccheld, N. J.
The pains of rheumatism are
almost invariably relieved with
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tation which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence Of
pain, which so frequently pros
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why
not you? They do not derauge
the stomach nor create a habit.
Why not try them? Get T2cll-
age from your druggist. T ,;e It

GOV. Davidson has vetoed the
teachers pension bill which came
into his hands in the closing hours of
the session, largely upon the grounds
that is too expensive a luxury and
would derive its funds from the
wrong source. In his veto message
he points out that a board of eight
members, as provided for in the bill,
is too large and that its Office and
travelling expenses would be too
great; that no provision is made for
the transfer of money from town, city
and village treasurers to county
treasUrers, and that the $50, 600
nucleus should come from the school
fund, not the general fund. As to
the cUnstitutionality the governor says
the retroactive clause alone condemns
the bill. and that should teachers be-
gin in September If the present year
to contribute to the retirement fund
it might be years before the constitu-
tionality of the measure would be
tested, and in the mean time the
teachers would have to pay in money
which might cause trouble in redis-
tributing il the law was later thrown
out.

The success which has attended the
sale of led cross stamps for the pro-
motion of the anti tuberculosis cause,
has endowed the leaders in that move
ment with new courage, and it is now
suggested by a prominent worker that
congress shall give the postofice
department authority to install an ad-
ditional stamp seller at all postofices
of importance during the month of
December of this year, and that his
duty shall be to offer for sale special
tuberculosis stamps of value rang
ing from one-tenth of cent to one
cent each to the purchasers of the re.
gular stamps, in addition thereto. Al
the end of the month the STAMP
seller will turn in all the money
collected for the sale of the special
stamps, and all unsold stamps, to the
government, which, after deductine
the expense incurred in the making
and sale of of the stamps, will turf
over the balance to the national
society or for distribution among it
branches, as may be decided. 1t il
argued in favor of this plan that the
government would lose nothing there
by and that large fund could thus b
accumulated for carrying on the good
work of stamping out the grea

THE SPECIAL MESSAGE.

In his special message President
Taft makes it clear that he has mis-
givings about the suficiency of the
revenue producing power of the new
tariff
To supplement the duties, several
special amendments had been propos-
ed, and the president now formally
publishes a preference he was already
known to entertain, namely, for a
2 per cent tax on the net incomes of
corporations.
To the trained legal and judicial
mind of President Taft the present
improperly under the circumstances
of a general income tax enactment
is plain.
Fifteen years ago the Supreme court
declared an income tax unconstitu-
tlonaI. The assumption that the
court would reverse itself under
pressure Of clamor and make new en-
actment is mere surmise, and not
altogether complimentary to the court.
The president sees plainly what every
intelligent. conservative, conservative
peron should see. that the proper
procedure for advocates of the income
tax is to bend their efforts to getting
the bar of unconstitutionality re-
moved, not to swerving or browbeat-
ing the court.
He therefore recommends provision
for constitutional amendment giving
congress power to levy an income tax.
Should a two-thirds vote of both
houses pass the proposal, ratification
by three fourths of the states would
be necessary, and we should then see
how the income tax idea would fare
when thoroughly thrashed out in dis
cussion before the people.
All question of the merits Of an
income tax aside, we thoroughly
believe with the president that the
present attempted enactment of such
tax in the face to its declared uncon-
stitutionality would be foolish, IL
logical, and probably abortive. The
constitution itself points the way to
removing the con ;titutional obstacle.
Advocates OF the income tax declaim
loudly about its popularity Are
they afraid to put its popularity to
the test IN the regular way proposed
by the president
We have said before that taxing
corporation incomes would cause wry
faces among the host of small stock
holders and dividend drawers. They
might not unrsasonably ask why their
incomes were singled out for taxation.
Corporations are already pretty
heavily levied on by the states. It
appears to us that these special taxes
by the national government are
warranted only by special revenue
emergency. Does any such emergency
exists Who knows whether or not
the new tariff will produce revenue
enough? Nobody. Senator Aldrich
guesses it will, easily; President Taft
guesses it will not. So why not try
out its revenue producing powers first.
and if necessary, consider the special
taxes later on. Perhaps the right
time to croas bridges is when we
come to them. Milwaukee Seminal.

The final adjournment of the legis-
lature took place at IL :O2 O'Clock last
Friday, having made record that is
generally unsatisfactory. 1t is the
intention to have a special session
next winter that will drag along for
several months, for onsideration of
the work which :was not taken up at
the past session. Less politics and
move business would have rendered
a special session, with the enormous
expense which it will entail, upneces-
sary.
