AGENTS NEED LESSONS ON RE.
HAVIoUR az


A number 2of housewives in this CITY
have complained Of late about agents
and salesmen who have become very
intpudent in their attempts to sell
their wares to them.
Several stated that the agents came
to their homes and asked them to look
at their wares. The women refused to
have anythi- : to do with them, and in
several instances they attempted to
force their way into the houses to
show their goods. One agent, it is
said, followed woman into the house
after he had been told that she did
not wish to take up any of his time.
Another woman stated that an agent
came to her home and offered to give
her, absolutely free Of charge, large
assortment Of crockery. The only ex-
pense entailed, he said, would be the
freight on the ware. Upon being told
that his offer would not be considered.
he became very angry, out finally left
the house.
In cases Of this kind the lady of the
house should notify the police, who
would give the agent the proper care.

state entomologist. Many nurserymen
are aware Of the dangerous nature Of
this disease and are doing all they can

raspberries. Consequently, anyone re-

on roots or stems, from nursery
should refuse to accept them. In Feb

Winfield Scott Hammond is the next
governor of Minnesota. After one Of
the most remarkable campaigns in the
history of this state, he goes into Of
fee with a large plurality. This
achievement, in state republican by
from $4,000 to 10000, indicates that
the people have the fullest confidence
in the next governor, and shows their
belief in Governor Hammond as a man
unt,anmeled by any interest or fac
ton. 1t is a splendid tribute to the
character and personality of Mr.. Ham,
mond. Never were there so great re-
suits from so short a campaign. Never
before in so short a time has a man
impressed himself on great common
wealth. To come into executive lead
e,ship of state like Minnesota under
such circumstances means the most
golden Of opportunities for service.
And who can doubt that Winfield Scott
Hammond, realizing the opportunity,
will be dignifed, able, inspiring and
forceful leader Of the citizenship Of
the North Star state.

WHEN ALL YOUR CHILDREN ARE

q man who has been married twenty
five years writes "a Husband g
Story" in which he relates the ex-
periences he and his wife had in bring
ing up their children. As is the habit
with fathers and mothers they made all
sorts of plans for their children, most
of which were never realized because
the children, as is usual, took affairs
into their own hands and made and
executed their own plans. On the fu-
tility of trying to arrange things for
your children the autho{ says in con
clusioh:
$50 all our planning for the chill
dren merely served to prove that it is
futile to strive to arrange the lives
of others, and that the function of
the parent is chiefly advisory. Nor
were we much disappointed at the
failure of our plans. After all, what
we sought was their happiness and
welfare, and that they found them
in ways other than those we devised
makes little difference.
