David Starr Jordan, president of
Leland-Stanford university, comes
out with the idea that modern ma
vies are what make us paupers; that
they are responsible for the high
cost of living and most everything
else that isn't just right in the
world. He did not explain just how
he happened to arrive at such a
conclusion, and of course no one
can assert that he may not be
right 1t seems. however, that
Uncle Sam would be taking rather a
rough chance IL he should take the
advice of David Starr Jordan and
others of similar ideas, and stop
building batleships. as long as other
nations insist that 1t Is just the
thing. Somehow we like to see
him keep abreast of the times and
we refuse to be pessimistic enough
to blame the high cost of living
on that cause. Whenever a dread
naught is built some six millions or
more of dollars are put into circu-
lation; some several thousand men
given employment, (though the pes
simists say that only the armament
and subsidiary trusts are bene-
fitted) and our navy continues to
be mistress of the seas.

A vast amount of i'll health is due
to impaired digestion. When the
stomach fails to perform its functions
properly the whole system becomes
d%eranged. A few doses of Chamber
lain's Tablets is all you need. They
will strengthen your digestion, In
vigorate your liver, and regulate your
bowels, entirely doing away with that
miserable feeling due to faulty diges-
ton. Try it. Many others have been

Stock Market

Kansas City Stock Yards, July 10,
1912.-Slim cattle supplies boosted
prices rs to 40 cents last week, and the
advance was pretty we'll held except on
wintered grass cattle, which lost good
part of the advance by the close The
crack Greenwood County cattle lacked
finish last week, and showed up bad
on the killing sheets. hence the cold
ness of buyers toward them at the end
OF the week. Stockers and feeders also
lost about all the bloom acquired the
first days of the week. The run to-day
is II, 900 head, and the market is uneven
stronger on prime cattle, with a new
high top at 1886, butcher grades and
cows also firm, likewise stockere and
feeders, but plain killers, including
quarantine cattle, are steady to Is
lower. Missouri again set the new high
figure, the cattle coming from a good
sized school of that class located in
in Clinton County. Butler County,
Kansas, topped the winter variety of
grass steers at $845, with some 1850 lbs.
Greenwood County steers at $3.50, and
others with less class, 100 lbs, at $775
to 1915 therefor. Quarantines to the
number of a 16O car loads arrived, the
good ones steady, medium and common
kinds shaded somewhat from the ad-
vance scored last week, but still bring
ing highest prices eTer known at this
season. Quarantine steers range from
$4 30 to $665 to-day, top last weeb $715.
cows $500 to 1886. A car of panhandle
calves, 175 pounds, brought $500 tc-
day, Is head out at So 90. Top stock
steers dring Sc 40, but plenty of plain
steers sell under $3.50, feeders at 1925
to $3.50. Hogs are steady to day, top
$7.55, bulk $3.50 to 81 so. Runs contln-
ue light, 4. 500 here to-day. Middle and
light weights now lead the heavies by
ito 10 cent margin. Average weight
here last week 204 pounds, same week
lastiyear 1872 pounds. Floods of spring
lambs at Louisville, Jersey City, ct al
have put q % to 50 cent crimp in the
lamb market to-day, following moder-
ate declines last week, Runs here are
moderate, $500 to-day. Top lambs here
to-day brought $40, bulk of the lambs
$7.2O and upwards. Sheep are holding
steady, range wethers up to $500, ma

MENT SUCCESS

Business Education a Door
way to Success" is a little
pamphlet young man should
read. It is issued to further the
cause of business education and
to inspire the youth with ambi-
ton and determination to sue
ceed.
1t is a fact vouched for by
every business man that a busi-
ness training is an absolute ne
Ecessity to every young person
contemplating Il business career.
And it is highly useful acquisi-
ton to every man or woman,
whatever his occupation.
Ask the men who have succeed
ed to what they attribute their
success and they will tell you it
was due to a thorough business
training. Allen Foote, president
of the Ohio state board of com
merce, says "that more failures
in business are due to lack of
proper business training than to
all other causes combined" and
and he continues, II may also
add that most successes are di.
rectly due to such training"
I Now, young man and young
woman, is the time to make that
education yours. The Albuquer-

Community Counsel

A town is like plant: 1t may grow
anyway; but it will grow faster if it is
cultivated.
We would be quick to defend this
community in time of war. It is equal
urgent that we be pro mpt to promote
its welfare in time of peace.
The easiest money man acquires
comes from the increasing value of his
home. Therefore, the most important
work he does is helping the community
to grow.
The value Of each mans property is
enhanced by the value of the property
around 1t. 1t is not enough to build a
good house; we must help to make a
good town.
The seed from which springs this
commupity's prosperity is the money
that is invested here at home. It will
never bear fruit for us if it is planted
somewhere else.
This town is our residence to-day is
our children's recollection for a life
time. What shall they remember
Good stores, clean streets, comfortable
homes? or something else.
The development of this community
is not a matter of sentiment; it is a
matter of common sense. 1t returns
not only a reward in contentment but
a profit in property valuation.
Human happiness depends on the
things thae are nearest to us--the home
first of all, and then the town in which
we live Whatever we do to make the
home pleasanter or the town better,
makes life more worth the living.
