A Quiet Place.

A thin, sickly little man entered
one of the stores in one of our small
towns recently and quietly seated him
self on a convenient chair. One of
the clerks approached and asked if he
wished to purchase anything. ooh,
no. said the man, 81 just dropped in
for few minutes. - After half an
hour had passed. the manager of the
store, becoming curious, approached
him and asked what could be done for
him. "Why nothing that L know of, -
said the man. ''You see 1 have
nervous prostration and the doctor told
me to stay in quiet place. Noticing
that you do not advertise I thought
this would be about the qsietest place
1 could find.' Let me tell you it was
anything but quiet there for five min
utes. The poor little man found him
self in the street wishing that he had
landed on a feather bed. But the next
week the store surprised itself with a
big display "ad" in the home paper.

Experiences of others in bringing

Although for years l had tried to
instill good manners as well as NOR
ais, there came time when one OF
the boys seemed to forget everything
! had been at such pains to teach. He
positively ignored the rights OF others.
and developed little tricks OF manner
which, while not serious, were exceed
ingly annoying.
1t is a delicate matter to keep call

strained.
A simple plan suggested ITSELF

day Of the month. On that day we
had a good talk and got over 1t.
This cleared the atmosphere, sui
lenness disappeared. l did not feel
neglected, yet could stop what had
become nagging, and the one serious
talk proved far more effectual than
constant protests.

The change removes the united sup

There have been practically no
changes in local market prices in any
line worthy of special mention, except
coffee, which advanced a few cents.
Cottolene declined considerable during
the week. The new crop of beans com

FACING THE CRISIS

Gentlemen, we must retrench." The
president OF the, great railroad faced
the board of directors. Every face
there blanched at the thought.
Eyes" he continued, something must
be done to maintain OUT reputation
for integrity and for that sound and
conservative business policy which
has been one of our distinguishing
traits. For, I regret to say the In
terstate Commerce Commission does
not understand or appreciate our con-
dition. The cost Of living has increas-
ed SO much that, alas! I fear disas-
ter in view Of the fact that we are
not permitted to raise our rates. Gen.
tlemen, something must be DONE"
All eyes were turned to the speaker.

pered hoarsely.
"I fear the worst. We must cut
our dividend"
deathly silence ensued. It was
felt that the fate Of several steam
Yachts was in the balance Every man
there instantly realized what 1t would
mean.
"Can nothing else be done?'
Nothing"
Another director leaned forward.
Gentlemen" he whispered. "let us
defer this until, say, day after to-mor-
row. This will give us time to sell
out our holdings at the present prices
and buy them back very much lower
after this dreadful news has passed
out"
