Summer Stops the Swing.

If you exert a pound of pressure
against a man in a swing you'll start
him moving slowly ito and fro" II
you continue to exert a pound OF
pressure against him every time the
swing makes a trip you'll soon have
him going SO high that he almost
turns the whole circle. If you stop
pushing the momentum will die out
and the swing comes to rest at dead
center"
Winning trade follows the same
natural laws.
Advertisements are the force be-
hind the swing Of public favor. Each
new advertisement increases the mo
lmentum. Finally the accumulated
force OF these impulses
swings indifference to the buying
point. /.
If you stop advertising you lose
momentum.
The moral of which Is: Don't stop
the business swing in summer. Keep
adding the pounds Of advertising
pressure.

PLEASURE IN SUBURBAN LIFE
Many Ways In Which II Can 30 Made
Superior to Either tho Rural
or Urban.

We should sharply distinguish be-
tween suburban life and rural. life. for
a vast gap separates them, especially
for the gentler sex Too often In
strictly rural life woman's time is
wholly occupied in drudgery, to the
exclusion of all social life, a consid-
cradle distance from nearest neigh
bors and their equally manifold duties
conspiring to prevent a supposed
waste of time in visiting"
While all this is changing for the
better, such conditions were
true of ordinary suburban life. Even
the farmers wife may now chat with
her friends and neighbors over the
telephone, and rural delivery places
her closely in touch with the worlds
movements and brings small articles
OF merchandise right to her door
nearly as quickly as it is delivered to
her city sisters. Suburban life con-
sists of living in rather thickly settled
communities, generally without the
confines of municipalities, yet having.
usually, all the city's advantages OF
transportation, water service, tele-
phones, gas, electricity, daily papers
delivered a few hours after publica-
tion, together with many valuable up
to-date conveniences.
Every such community should have
a live improvement association, and
perhaps, In addition, an equally live
woman's club. Such clubs may pur-
chase magazines for either individual
or collective use at greatly reduced
rates, and would they but sufficiently
cooperate, all household commodities
at equally advantageous prices. Co
operation, z%ealously and honestly car
ried out, spells success for any organj
cation or business enterprise.

A Few Facts About
LIVER TROUBLE

A dull. sluggish liver always brings
a dull, sluggish feeling to the entire
body. When the liver works properly
the blood courses through the body in
a bright red stream. When the liver
is inactive the blood becomes dull and
muddy, and it is full OF poisonous
matter. A great many people Try to
get a fine. clear. pink and white COM
p~le1ion by rubbing things on their
faces. They might rub a lifetime and
the same yellow complexion would re-
main-for the liver causes it. Only
bright, red blood brings fine complex
ions. Blood loaded with impurities
from the liver sends the impurities
out through the pores of the skin and
turns the skin a brownish yellow.
To get rid of the dull, heavy feeling
and muddy. yellow complexion get the
liver to working again. Two SOC bot
ties of BLOODlNE will do it nine times
out of ten. If you are troubled with

QUALITIES OF STREET TREES
Some Important Points to Be Con
sldered Before the Road ls
Laid Out.

It must be apparent to all that the
chief point of value in a street lies
In It's general appearance. for If 1t
be not attractive the street were bet
ter bare, though there be but a few
trees having no ornamentive value
for street planting. Nevertheless, we
desire the most ornate, and this must
first be considered.
The next most important point Is
it's drought resistance. We may be
able to care for a tree much or all
of the time, but We would be relieved
of the possible danger arising from
long periods of neglect. Those trees
which look best with least care and
water will prove the only ones gen.
orally useful, for while n will give
ample care, his neighbor will give
none.
The next point must be cleanliness,
for if a tree be too dirty it's litter
will detract from the beauty and tidi-
ness of the street sufficiently to Offset
any attractive appearance of the tree
itself.
Fourth on the list must come
amount of care, a consideration close
ly allied to the last.
Next comes rapidity of growth. Not
until we are many centuries older will
we settle down to the philosophic
state of mind enjoyed by Europeans,
We wish a tree to make "a fair show
ing in a year, not knowing that the
most rapid-growing trees are generally
the shortest-lived. We should learn to
plant for posterity-for generations to
come-as they do in all countries bW
ours.
Sixth, and last, a tree should lave
a good root system.

TAX COMMISSION
 ANNOUNCES RAISES
Figures Show $S25,OOO h. crease for MOuntgOm-
 cry County

Montgomery, December 12.-(Speeal.) )- Tax raises made by the state tax com mission in Montgomery county amounted to $s25,0oo, according to figures given out today at the office of the tax commits sion. The commission has practically fin- ished it's work in Montgomery county, having adjusted nearly all matters reat- ing to assessments here.
 When the commission first began send ing out citations to property owners of the county relative to tax raises 1t was believed that the raises would amount in round numbers to about s6,0OO,0oo or sS,- O000oo.
 As result of this current belief a mass meeting was held at the courthouse here to protest against the action of the tax commission, and the governor and the ad- ministration were rather severely critl- esed for their attitude in supporting the raises in the county.
 The majority of the property owners however, did not make any serious pro- test in reference to their taxes, and many of those who did finally accepted the ruling of the commission. Other assess ments were fixed and settled in various ways, and the storm which was precipi- tated as a result of the mass meeting at length subsided.
 The figures setting forth the amount of the entire raises were given out today, having been just compiled by the members >f the commission. While the sum of $S25 GOO may be inaccurate to some extent, as- surance was given that those figures will about approximate the total in raises.
