ers as soon as Governor Noel returns
to the city.
One of these buyers resides in
South Mississippi, while the man who
took the $4,000 of bonds is a resi-
dent of East Mississippi. These are
only the first of these who have bid
for bonds, as about $150,O0O have been
spoken for. Remittance was made in
each case by New Orleans exchange
and all remittances for bonds should
be either New Orleans or New York
exchange. Bids are still being re-
ceived for the bonds, and Governor
Noel will have to sign and send out
about 100000 of these bonds on his
return.
On the entire issue of 100000
bonds, Governor Noel will have to
sign his name 1900 times, as will
Secretary of State J. w. Powers, and
it will require some time to place the
signatures and seals on the entire
issue. 1t is figured that it will take
at least a quart of ink to write the
signatures.

first country to appoint commander

an appropriation of 100000 for the

SCIENCE OF sALEMEN.

Some Throw Rocks at Idea But It's
There All the Same.
Notwithstanding the jabs at the So
called science of craftsmanship, there
is nevertheless good deal to this prop
osition. The old timers on the road are
not willing to admit that there is much
of anything in trying to teach man
the art of selling goods. The boys
who have been up against it for years
and have learned how to handle men
and have learned all about their line
are inclined to believe that the only
thing that does the business is expert
ence and hard knocks. They don't
think much of this one, two, three, four
idea They think that the only way to
sell is to sell. They appreciate that it
is almost impossible to handle two men
in just the same way, that you must
become acquainted with your man be-
fore you can get his business. This is
true in some lines and with some men,
others buy of strangers IL they are APP
preached more readily than from old
acquaintances.

THE COUNTRY MERCHANT.

The country merchant is a man
Who works with all his might
from twelve to fourteen hours a day.
And several hours at night
AT counting out and cabling eggs
And weighing dabs of butter,
And keeping things around the stove
From getting in clutter.
The country merchant is a man
Who once received fair pay
For his everlasting hustle,
But those times have passed away,
It's safe to say no "send-off man.
Regards him as a dandy,
But when the "send-o man. is broke
He comes in mighty handy.
The country merchant is a man
With heart of mammoth size,
So all the money beggars
Regard him as their prize
And everlasting that happens
At just the proper time
To call upon the storekeeper
And ask him for a dime
The country merchant is a man
Whose soul when e'er he dies
Shall soar away to realms of bliss
To home beyond the skies.
Bright angels there await him,
Beside the pearly gate,
But when the send off man" appears
He will find he is too late.

ING ALSO.

That Fargo is after that 1911 con-
vention of the district United Com
mercial Travellers goes without saving
ana that every man in the local coun-
Gil Is plugging for that end is just as
certain as is the fact that the sun does
rise and SET. Recently notice was re-
celved here by Secretary Dunn and
other members of the council that Red
wing, one of the hustiing towns of
Minnesota, was after the big conven-
tion Tor that city. Now, b. F. Ashel-
man, one OF the enthusiastic members
OF the Fargo organization, was an old
tlne friend of the writer of the notice.
Mr.. Ashelman used to live at Red Wing
and SO he was given authority to an
sWer the notice, and he did. He told
now Fargo would be pleased TO visit
Red Wing; that Red Wing was a de-
nghtful place, but that Fargo was away
ahead of the Minnesota city and that
Fargo was out after that convention
nanos, feet and toe nails Mr.. Ashel-
man further suggested that now that
Red Wing was onto the fact that Fargo
was after this convention it might be
well for the writer and others of that
city to turn in and assist the biggest
tltIle city in the world to land the con-
Ventlon, at the same time assuring him
thaC Fargo would do all in her power
TO show all who comes the best time
they ever had at any convention of any
KIND 1t is to be hoped by the local
travellers that the Red Wing people will
DO as Mr. Ashelman has suggested.
