BrandeiS for Cabinet

The Boston Post says that it is
a certainty that Louis Brandeis
will be Secretary of Commerce
& Labor in Wilson'S cabinet.
Finest selection possible. Bran
deis knows more real facts about
these subjects, based on study,
coupled with unusual faculty for
investigation, than any other
man in the United States. When
it came to say something to the
point, something that meant
something, Brandeis could al
ways be depended upon to say
it. For, he knew. The more
rumors heard about Wilson's
cabinet selections, the stronger
figure he becomes.

A Business Change

The store which has been oc-
cupied by the Peters Dry Goods
Co. and which was owned by
Mr.. and Mrs. Cook has been sold
to DR.. Zillman. The deal was
made Saturday according to the
current reports, when the build
ing was bought for $500. Peters
had an option on the structure
and it was through him that the
property came to DR.. Zillman.
1t is understood that the place
will be given an overhauling and
that the White Drug Co. will
occupy it the first of the month.
DR.. Zillman will fit himself
modern offices at the rear of the
store and the place will be one
of the most comfortable business
rooms in tn e city. The
location undoubtedly is as good as
any in town and probably better
than any other single room. The
White Drug Co. will secure a
fine location in the new place.

Narrow EScape-NOt

Two young men of this city
had a narrow escape from death
near Dalton Saturday evening.
They were about to cross the
railway track when the baleful
electric eye of second No. g
struck them full in the face.
There was no question in their
minds as the light shone upon
them that the train was close.
They whipped up the horses and
with rapidly beating hearts and
minds full of terror crossed the
tracks. Just then, the train
struck a curve and the head
light was pointed in another
direction. The train was more
than a mile away.

Dry Goods Firm Retires

Peters Dry Goods Co. store
Kleed Saturday night after a
;cial sale of several weeks dur
MY which much of the goods
IS disposed of. Mr.. Peters
yepself was here to superintend
die sale and to help pack the re-
OEnder Of the goods to be taken
leaWaverly. The packing con-
tinued through Sunday and sew
eral days, the first of the week.
By the middle of the week the
place was closed and the goods
shipped to Waverly, where the
head store of the Peters enter
prise is located. With Mr..
Peters went Mr.. Herbert Weber
q young man who has managed
the store since its purchase from
Mrs. Cook. The store advertis-
ed and did a big business when
il hrst opened its doors but later
drew down on advertising and
the business was not quite so
good. Mr.. Weber had some
good ideas about conducting the
business and pushing the sales
to the front but the absence of
the owner, who was not here to
keep in touch with the trade
proved a slight handicap on the
development of the business.
Mr.. Weber was a quiet, un-
ostentatious gentleman and had
some good friends here who will
miss his presence.

Another Revival Needed

Someone has mentioned the
fact that there are as many, if
not more idle girls traipsing
around the streets of this town
than any town of its size on the
map. There are young women
who spend, apparently most Of
their working hours walking the
streets, without any noticeable
ambition beyond the desire to be
seen, to attenda dance or see a
picture show. If some of them
have time to cultivate the more
useful and homely virtues Of pre-
pairing to better fit themselves
for their future lives, no signs
are to be described. Their par
ents must be held to blame for
much of it. Street walking,
even if done without purpose is
one of the best cultivators of
idleness and shiftlessness and is
Satan's right handmade when it
comes to finding something for
idle hands to do" There is
much to be learned in this world
and the future depends on the
character building of the present.
Aimless walking of the streets,
and in some cases, a purpose not
quite so aimless, is not conduc-
i've to building Of characters and
making strong men and women.
Keytesville need a revival in this
line.

Sherman's walk to the sea,

Sunday was a beautiful day.
It was a day when even stone
images felt like coming off their
pedestals and promenading a
little. Therefore it is not won
derful that the wanderlust should
strike some of Keytesville's per-
ipatetic people.
The lure Of the day proved too
much for some Of Keytesville's
young women and they had to
walk. 1t was to be great fun to
walk to Dalton and return via
the cushions, SO they did. They
walked the entire distance, so
they report, about four and a
half miles, in an hour and a half.
Pretty good time, say the girls,
who are not accustomed to walk
so fast as this, as a general rule.
They left here shortly after
noon and got back about $50

Getting the Money

Congressman w. w. Rueker is

an appropriation of $13O,0OO for
a combined postoffice and Feder-

enough appropriation. They

would be and it is expected that
the Congressman will see that
Chillicothe gets the $3.50, 600.
The original appropriation was
for $65. 900 for a postoffice but
the designation of Chillicothe
as a point where the Federal

Quite a few of the papers of
of this part of the country are
adopting the plan of the Courier
in refusing to entertain adver-
tising matter on the front page.
This is something that every ed
itor in the country who admires
anything like goodlooking news
papers, ought to do. Most of
them refuse to take the move
that they would like, for fear of
antagonizing old customers. It
wouldn't last long. A news
paper man would have as much
right to go TO a dry goods man
and insist on buying space on his
display windows for sticking up
samples of his paper as the dry
goods man would have to insist
on advertising on the front page
of the paper. No newspaper
ought to carry a line Of adyertis-
ing on its front or display page.
