We In America pride ourselves on
he great progress we have made as a
nation; and with some reason. for,
among all the records of world hfs-
tory, hardly parallel can be found
TO the advances made by the United
States In mechanical invention, indus
rial development. and commercial
progress In the comparatively short
period since this nation had its birth,
There is one respect, however. we
must frankly admit, in which this
marvellous record of advance has not
Deen sustained; and that is in regard
to the development of original work
lone little more than mark time !.
N spite of the remarkable progress
we have made IN other lines of en-
deavor, 1t cannot be said that the
ancient architectural conventions
passed on old world traditions have up
TO the present time adapted them
selves thoroughly to the new condi-
tons Of our national life and environ

FALSE HUNGER
A Symptom of Stomach Trouble Cor
rected by Good Food.

There is, with some forms of stom-
ach trouble, an abnormal craving for
food which is frequently mistaken for
a good appetite. A lady teacher

plain how with good food she dealt

years, and up to nine years ago had

however, my health began to fail.
and continued to grow worse steadily,
in spite Of doctors prescriptions, and
everything could do. During all this
time my appetite continued good only
the more ate the more wanted to
eat-I was always hungry.
The first symptoms OF my break
down were distressing nervousness
and loss of flesh. The nervousness
grew so bad that finally it amounted to
actual prostration. Then came stom-
ach troubles, which were very painful,
constipation which brought on piles,
dyspepsia and severe nervous head
aches.

Butchers, too, have changed to suit
the demand of the consumer. Al
though meat is generally considered
luxury in the diet of the poor mans
family, it still remains an absolute
necessity in the diet Of the better
classes. But, where people formerly
ordered large roasts and steaks, they
are ordering steaks and roasts now
that are from so to rs per cent. small
er. on account of the advanced prices.
They find that If they get small
roast from large animal that 1t is
long on bone. The butcher then to
suit the demands for smaller bone de-
mands smaller animals, and during
the last few months they have been
willing to offer, not premium on
smaller steers SO far as dollars per
100 is concerned. but they have
brought the price Of small steers up
so close tothat of the large ones that
there is really premium on little
steers when we consider the cost Of
production.
We do not think that the 1900
pound steer will ever be entirely
eliminated from the market, but we
do think (ff a conjecture is a1lowabieJ
that the baby beef animal will con-

seventy-one Years in shoe shop.

eeventy-one Years in a Shoe Shop.
Charles H, Wilson of Troy. Ny,
occupies the unique position Of having
been In business in one building for II
years: at least he will have completed
II years in the shoe business at 242-
244 River street August IL next. This
record, 1t is believed, can be equaled
by few If any shoe retailers in this
country. Mr.. Wilson has also been in
business for himself for more than SO
years., Mr. Wilson is today just as
much In active business as he was al
most three-quarters of century ago.
when as thirteen-y lad he en-
tered the. employ of John Leonard
Williams of Troy. To be exact, that
was August IL, 1910. Mr.. Williams
kept shoe store at 242-244 River
street in building which had been
erected in 1903, and SO the building
now occupied by Mr.. Wilson for his
retail shoe business is one of the old
est buildings in Troy.

It is possible. however, that the
drift to suburban life now SO notice

this line. For in the country. man alb
serbs the sunshine, breathes Gods air

mirror OF the nations character and a
