A FRIEND IN NEED
Retail Dealers Champion For
Fair Treatment.
Special To The Intelligencer.

Special To The Int%elligencer.
Mr.. ]. r. M%oorehead, Secretary
of National Federation of Retail
Merchants, Lexington, No, told
of the organization of the Nation
al Federation of Retail Merchants
last October in Chicago, by 233
representatives of Is different
lines of retail trade having a
membership of 212, 900. The pur-
pose was to safeguard the inter
est of all retail merchants. Of
the 1,75O,0O0 manufacturers.
wholesalers, and retailers, more
than one and a quarter million
are retail merchants. Half of
these are dependent upon their
business for the support Of their
families. Each employs an
average of three persons. A great
cry has been issued for the elm
nation of the middle man and
the retailer is pointed to as a
criminal. In the great prosper
ity the retailers have had less
than their share. Mail order
houses and city department stores
have generally made larger gains.
The journals supported by the
advertising of retail mail-order
houses say that the country
town has no excuse for existence.
Parcels Post is a device to en-
able distant concerns to grab the
business of local communities.
They may be willing to leave
the local retailer such business
as must come when credits are
necessary when crops fail or the
strike is on. Proximity to a
live town increases values of farm
property. If you congest trade
and population in a few great
centers, you increase the social
and political problems.
The late Senator Dolliver of
Iowa rejoiced at the number of
small towns in his state, afford
ing the farmers home markets
and social advantages, and the
absence of great cities within the
state. The interests of many
others are involved in the vel
fare of the retail merchants.

Some people believe that in

''the picture the thing'-that

and cheap the mounting may be.
Nothing could be more falla-
cious. The mounting is to the
picture what the setting is to the
jewel-if the mounting is cheap
or inharmonious the picture, how
ever fine, loses all its effect.
The Collins Calendars are no.

Lets look this over more carefully"
he said. 1T seems to me you've been

figure you intended paying for a dress
and then chosen q dress to match. That

The Hopeful Housewife needed no Sec
ond invitation. She, came and the Com
muter began to turn the pages for her and.
though she said nothing. he very soon
realised how the parlor magician is led
to the hidden object by unconscious sug-
gestion Of the hand he holds.
A sudden intake Of breath, a faint in
voluntary sigh apprised him of the gar
ments which pleased his wife's fancy
rather than her reason.
I'VE can't choose unless we cover up
the prices" he announced, laying his
hand over the telltale figures under the
models. Nov, there's a hat think
would be stunning on you! And look at

you wore when We used to go skating be-
fore we were married! I'm strong for

The Conmuter felt a sudden tightening
Of fingers on his arm. He watched a
sudden widening Of brown eyes-another
sharp intake Of breath.
"Oh!" she gasped. those things will
never do-never. never do! Why, the hats

We could never afford them!"

without anything you want!'
