THURSDAY, JAN. IS, 1912.

"Some people seem at times disln-
clined to patronize the home merchant
They will ask a grocer to deliver a
Yeast cake to their back door, but
when it comes to ordering winters
supply of canned goods, they write to
some distant mail order house. 1t
should be needless to say, that if every
one did thus, We should have stores to
rent, fewer opportunities for people to
earn living at home.
On the contrary, if we all bought
everything possible at home, our stores
could keep even better stocks. 1t is
crest convenience to be able TO make
selections from a good line of goods at
home. This becomes possible where
everyone Loyalty supports the home
merchants.
Under such circumstances existing
stores could do larger business, EN-
ploy more people, carry larger stocks.
As business doomed there would be
more property to tax, hence more pub
lie improvements. Money kept at
home benefits the home; benefits mu-
tually all the people OF the commu-
nifty.
But the bottom fact is, the home
merchant is entitled TO home trade.
He pays taxes, aids in the support CT
schools, streets, churches of the place,
contributes to the fraternites and
clubs, gives to charity. The foreign
dealer does none Of this-has not the
remotest interest in the affairs of the
neighborhood except to extract money
from it for expenditure elsewhere.
Moreover, the local merchant is re-
sponsiblt, accountable. Ii goods are
not right he is here TO make good
without quibbling How about your
mail-order friend? Nor will the latter
ever trust you-'cash with ORDER is
his motto. How different the home
dealer He carries" patrons who
chance at times not to have ready
money and thus becomes most well
come convenience. In short, he is the
man from whom TO buy. His claim
upon his neighbors for their trade is
supreme. 1t simply cannot be ques-
toned.

A Hero in a Lighthouse.

For years j. S. Donahue, So. Haven,
Mich, civil war captain, as light
housekeeper, averted awful wrecks,
but a queer fact is, he might have
been a wreck, himself, if Electric

cured me of kidney trouble and chills,"
he writes, "after had taken other So
called cures for years, without benefit

New Section of the Brain

Henry Miller, the actor-manager, is
always in earnest when he Is rehears.
ing play, and he frequently makes
remarks that sink deep into sensitive
souls of the people in the cast with
him.
Not long ago he was greatly in
censed by the inability of an actor to
read line according to instructions.
and this is what he said to the delin-
quent:
My dear sir, you ought to go down
on your knees and scrub out the Gel
lar of your intellect" -Twice-a-Montb

been forgotten, and then my client

why Clearance Sales are Necessary

In very interesting article in the
January Woman's Home Companion,
entitled Behind the Scenes at the Bar
gain Sale" appears the following:
Clearance sales are calendar eV-
ents now-regular 'turnovers Oh
stocks that recur with the consistency
and regularity of clockwork-
The question OF turning over his
stock il paramount in the mind or ev-
cry department~head in each large de-
partment store in America; ne must
succeed in turning over his share OF
the load Of merchandise the house car
ries, just so often before inventory
time. His position depends upon his
success in doing this.
ITO accomplish this periodical pro-
cess according to the scientific pro-
cesses now in vogue, clearance sales,
take place at stated intervals; when,
to save carrying-Over of stocks from
one season to another, with the con-
sequent expense and loss, all goods are
treated with scant respect to actual
values.
We'll try it and see,' was the COM
ment and order.
1.-The same newspapers were employ
ed as mediums to publish the an
nouncement and the same space en-
ployed as was their custom whenever
advertising sale of this character.
The heading Of the advertisement
read:
1.-TWO Hundred and Fifty Women's
Handsome Lingerie Dresses, at $11.75.
These dresses are the pick Of our styl-
ish, seasonable stock, and embody all
the dainty touches demanded by the
woman of fashion and discrimination.
They are absolutely the best values in
town at the price, which is consider
ably below what would ordinarily be
asked in regular selling, ETC.
THE outcome of the sale was as the
'ad' man predicted The sale was a
failure, although the day was an ex-
ceptionally fine one, an April day,
clear and crisp, ideal for shopping
purposes.
THE test was repeated with a SINH
lar sale the ensuing week, with the
same amount of newspaper space, but
with this heading: 'Women's Hand
some SIS Lingerie Dresses at $1175,
about one-third underpriced; $3.50
Dainty Garments in a Rare Bargain
Sale; Saving of Almost 80 Per Cent;
A Garments for the price of 8, ETC.
THE stocks were cleared in day"

MELROSE.

lit il not often that correspondent
writes continually for the local press
for % years. In February, 1888, we
started writing Melrose news for the
local papers and have continued ever
since, making a quarter of century
until February, 1913. Perhaps some
of the readers will send post card
to celebrate the event between now
and that date.
We often have heard here in the
past three years the railroad would be
built through to Westminster or the
trolley from Reisterstown to Hanover.
Nothing definite has yet been done.
We need both. Last week we had
several strange men here in the neigh
borhood who seemed to have authority
to say that the ore mines will soon
again resume operations and the rail-
road will eventually be extended to
Westminster. We earnestly hope this
will come to pass.
Our three young men, Messrs. Erwin
Shaffer, Clarence Fridinger and Chas.
Shaffer have returned from the West,
where they had been working. They
received So per day for shocking corn
and had about three months of that
kind of work.
