The science of merchandising has
risen rapidly in the past half decade.
but there are still merchants who sell
only trash aud who care more for TO,
days Profits than for future patron
age. Such merchants are no longer
important. They are has beens. They
are too weak. mentally and financially,
to Withstand the rising standard Of
modern business, They are gradually
finding their way TO the side streets.

what is really best for him. or merely

LIVE WITHIN YOUR MEANS

Andrew Carnegie recently said that
the chief reason for poverty and crime
in the United States vas failure of
people to live within their means.
To a great extent this theory is true.
People desire too much ostentation.
A majority of the American people
desire to live--not as they are but
for what others think they are.
The young clerk. who gets s12 a
week, spends SIS for pleasure and his
own decoration. The young business
woman spends a great part of her sal
airy for clothing. The struggling bust
ness man denies himself personal
wants that his family may appear
what they are not, in society.
There will be reckoning sometime
The dying man will grasp at a straw
Those who are in positions of trust,
will some day resort to criminal
means to keep up appearances. When
this time comes their false position
will be revealed. Regardless of this
fact, many travel the glittering way,
needless of the pitfall.
To live within your means is one of
the greatest lessons you can learn.
1t, is true that fine feathers make a
fine. bird but is also true that bor-
rowed plumage is responsible for
many fools. Live within your income.
Be yourself. The world may not rea-
lize your worth quickly. but some day
you may be able to believe as Mr.
Carnegie does.

The pres sure against Union Pacific. United States Steel. Lehigh Valley and other standar tissues was most marked. Imports of dry goods and general mer- chandise for the week were $1.S00. 900 in excess of the previous week and the total since the beginning of the year was S17.OOO.OOO greater.

cANADA'S NAVY.

Naval officers are discussing in an interested way the statements of Admiral Charles E. Kingsmill of the British navy, who has been intrusted by King George with complete super vision of matters connected with the new Canadian navy. ''The defense of the Canadian coasts is," he says, "a very large order. Great Britain can not be looked to for that protection. The fleets of the mother country were in earlier years scattered over the world. This is no longer the case. Britain will to any extent protect the British and Canadian trade route, but she cannot protect the colonies The work of protecting Canada must be done by Canadia. Many citizens of the dominion do not appear to realize what this might mean. but it might be brought home to them when hostile sailors landed, for instance, on the shores of the St. Lawrence and seized supplies. as they certainly would do in the event of war. rThe navy of the Canadian people may not be large but if hostile men of war knew that they might encounter cruisers of the Cana dians in Canadian waters, they would be more chary of venturing in"

 In the residence districts a forty foot oiled macadam roadway can be laid for SO cents a square yard. The cost will only be $S0 a fifty-foot lot. Mir Heard predicted that within a year Phoenix would have great many blocks Of perfectly good paving
 There should not only be a system of paved streets in the city, but ! system of good roads throughout the valley to connect with those streets, declared MT. Heard This is highly important that new corners may see the valley at its best. And there should also be trans continental automobile road passing through Phoenix. MT. Heard had a great many interesting suggestions to make along this line, both on the value such a road would be to the valley and the proper way to go about secur- ing it.
 Mir Heard stated that Phoenix should begin making efforts to induce manufacturing enterprises to establish here. for payrolls are what the city needs. Another question of vital inn portance is that of sewers. for the city stands in danger of an epidemic if this question is not settled soon. The paw ing committee will have something to say in its report along this line.
 The necessity of a modern school system was touched upon by MT Heard. The ch dren of the city should be educated in sanitary rooms. not over-crowded. A good start in this direction has been made, and when the schools which the district is now build ing or intends to build are complete, there will be nothing to be desired in this line. .----
