MAKING THE HOME PAY.

Marketing home products advantage
ously is OF paramount importance" says
Kate v Saint-Maur in Woman's Homo
Companion for January, land seems to
be the point on which many beginners
fall. Commission men and wholesale
markets should not be resorted to, be-
cause homegrown products Of all dee
criptions excel in quality and not in
quantity; therefore, appeal to hgh-class
private custom, who desire tho very best
regardless Of price.
81 have never sold through any OF the
ordinary market channels, yet have al
ways had more orders than could fill
and received a little more than tho or
binary prices. Naturally tho location of
the home and the quality OF tho wares
must influence tho returns TO some sx-
tent, but not half so much AS the method
of packing and shipping Nicely in these
respects captures the favor OF customers
and they take pride In exhibiting things
to their friends--whioh is tho very best
sort OF advertising IL home business can
have

SUCH Is LIFE.

Life is what enables the baby to kick
his feet about in infancy, and what he
kicks most about during his adult days
Generally life begins with squat,
and it often continue squany to the
end
There are four modes Of life: bachelor,
a fast life; a spnstcrhood, slow life;
matrimonial life, which is suspended an
imation; and the Reno electric life, a
spicy variety composed of alternating
currents of the married and single kinds
The butterfly life is the gay one, but II
is too short; the tortoise life is longer
but is too slow; and if you try to strike
safe and sane gait in the middle OF
rider going the pace that kills-such as
you.
High life Is dangerous, as ones aero
plane may have a "brainstorm" at any
minute or altitude, and there is no long
er much enjoyment in low life on account
of the settlement worker and Summing
parties, Apparently the only escape from
bourgeois dullnoss IS to marry as often
as possible; and there IS always danger
of falling in loyo with your wife and
settling down to a duckpond pluoldity.
If you are lacking IN life you are
| termed q dead one" if endowed with
real life and ginger, you arc dubbed too
| fresh"

there are always too many pieces ar not

THE LATEST PENSION GRAB.

by a vote of PIP to 81, the Sulloway
Pension bill which, ii Is estimated, Will
entail an additional expenditure of Si6,-
600 600 within couple of years. There
we're the usual scenes. The speaker left
his chair and delivered, so the dispatch

ing fire and force" "Whirling around
and around on his feet" like a dancing
deryish and waving his arms, he uttered
the familiar sentimentalitles and drove
his sheep ahead of him, Fully forty
democrats joined in the scramble. Why
not? Was the bill not certain to pass
anyway? And 30 Hef-interest and cow
