"Do you know" said caller at

come into the business or editorial
rooms here to ask question that

teously answered" That Is a COM
pliment which all the members of the
force appreciate and hope they Will
always merit. But we wonder II a
part of the compliment is not due to
the man himself who gave 1t. Did
not his manner and speech invite the
sort of reply he received? Do we not
all help to make the treatment thar
we get at the hands of others? Ger
tainly we do. The world about US Is
in large measure what we make IT.

FittInu Homes to Salaries.

"Buy your house according to your
salary"
Larger employers of labor in small
err communities where it can be done
successfully are quite generally urg-
ing their workmen to buy and not rent
homes. In one such plan no work
man is permitted to buy a house un-
der the company's plan which will cost
over one-fifth of his monthly wages.
The company builds a house for
$1,000. It sells this to an employe
upon payment of SIS for 100 consecu-
tive months, or an $1,000 house for
100 monthly payments of SIS. But the
employer will not sell $1,000 house
to a man whose wages are less than
SITS month, or five times the required
payment.

Uncle Eustace seemed to be as old
as the hills. He was about forty-five,
suppose, but to boy of twelve that
Is an immense age. He was very
ruddy, very gray and very .clean-look-
ing, and slow and deliberate in all his
movements. He used to come to spend
q week with US three or four times a
year. Uncle Eustace was papas
brother.
Poor old Eustace," papa used to
say, after he was gone, and there was
q sort of affectionate contempt in his
voice He'll never amount to any

mother. He's getting along very
nicely now as bookkecper for the

school since she was a girl, and she
had known Uncle Eustace and papa
since they were boys. Miss Penton
always encouraged ME to tell her about
my family, but somehow she never
came to visit us, though papa always
took off his hat to her when they met.
And then a very strange thing hap
pened. Grandfather Mortlock, papas
father, died in his big house in far
away New York. I had never seen
him. He had got sort Of crabby when
he grew old, and didn't care about peo-
pie. 1t was said that Uncle Eustace
had embittered his life when he was
boy by declining to so into his bust
ness, and therefore grandfather had
cut him off with a dollar. Uncle Eus-
tace had just drifted through life. AT
forty he was a broken man. Then
papa got him a position with the

A SAFE PLACE.

A noted citizen OF Topeka, Kans.,
took his small boy, who up to that
time had not been outside OF the sun
flower state, to an elegant hotel In
Washington. D. c. When they came
full upon the bar doing business, the
Kansas boy, with eyes wide with ex-
element and horror, pulled his father
into a corner and whispered: We've
caught them this time, father, caught
them selling 1t right out in sight. I'll
stay and watch and you hurry and
bring the officers"
When the father explained that
liquor selling was not violation Of
law at our nations capital, the aston
ished child turned sadly away from
the beauties Of Washington and said:
Lets go home to Kansas"

But, as papa would say, how can any,
one make good" at forty-fve?
Well, Grandfather Mortlock died.
about two weeks before Easter. You
know how such thing affects the
mind Of child. I cried all day, al
though I had never seen the old man.
Then, about five evenings later,
heard papa talking about the will.
Elizabeth" he said to mother.
what do you think? The old man
has left Eustace cool hundred thou
sand dollars, and only fifty thousand
apiece to the rest of u.s."
You don't envy him, my dear?"
asked mother, slipping her hand into
his.
Envy him? I'm heartily glad" said
father. Dear old Eustace! Nobody
thought the old man would leave him
a penny. I guess he'll be pleased.
That ought to mean five thousand a
year to him."
told Miss Penton about that, too,
and she was so pleased that I almost
thought she was crying instead OF
Laughing.
What does your Uncle Eustace
look like now?" she asked. Has he
the same black, curly hair that he had
when he was q boy?"
"Why-haven't you seen him since,
Miss Penton?" l asked her.
Miss Penton shook her head, and
something seemed to whisper to me to
leave her. So did.
At Easter Uncle Eustace came to
see us. He looked just the same as
ever, except that he was wearing a
new suit Of clothes and brand-new
overcoat. His hair was grayer than
it had been the last time, and he was
beginning to grow fat
Il tell you, Jim," he said to father,
tits mighty fine thing for me I'd
have that money. l was beginning I'd
get played out. I'm an old fellow now
its time took life easy"
What are you going to do with 1t.
Eustace?" asked father WHY don't
you invest it in a good mortgage or
two? I'll take care Of it, If iou like.
You know you never had murl bust
ness sense"
I've been thinking" said Uncle
Eustace, about a nice little farm,
such as I've always longed for-say
twenty-five thousand dollars worth OF
land, and the rest"
'Eustace, why don't you get mar
ried?" asked mother. looking at uncle
in a queer sort Of way.
'Why, who would have an old fel.
low like me?" he asked.
"You are not old, Eustace; you are
just in your prime" said mother an
grily. IF you think of yourself as an
old man you will really be old"
Tom" said Uncle Eustace to me
next morning, when does your school
open again."
I told him, and he seemed quite anx.
ious to go to school with me and find
out what they taught US nowadays. He
said there had been great change in

THE WAY THE TRADE SEES 1T.

Three men talked together in one OF
Chicago's big hotels a few days ago.
The eldest, about sixty-f1ve years OF
age, had been in the liquor business
since he was boy of eight; the other
two had spent the larger part Of their
lives in it. Their conclusion was that
its days are numbered. The older man,
a wholesale dealer Of some reputation.
at last gave it as his opinion that they
would all have to get out OF the bust
ness by 1920.

he will lose the German vote by be-

honest and courageous enough to let
the people know exactly what kind of

The issue is most vital. The peo-
pie are entitled to the largest meas

complete initiative and referendum,
the recall and direct primaries. In
spite Of the pledges of the republican
marty. the last legislature killed off
the above Ployhar-Blakemore bill and
the recall and thereby set the state
back four years as to those matters.
If Mr.. Kraabel or Mr.. frame is not
willing to give his iron clad pledge to
the above, then it becomes the duty Of
myself or someone who is for these
things to run. SO that the people can
have one candidate who stands for
these principles. The offer contained
in this open letter has been mailed to

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
WELI-kNOWN LOCAL DRUGGIST
SAYS EVERYBODY 10 USING
oLD.TlME RECIPE or SAGE TEA,
AND SULPHUR.

Hair that loses it's color and lustre.
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless, is caused by a lack Of sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmother made
up a mixture OF Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful,
and thousands of women and men who
value that ever color, that beautiful
dark shade Of hair which is so at
tractive, S only this old time recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture by asking at any drug store for
a so cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" which dark
ems the hair 10 naturally, so evenly.
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. Besides. it takes of
dandruff, stops scalp itching and
falling hair. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears; but what de-
lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Is that, besides beauti-
fully darkening the hair after q, few
applications, it also brings back the
gloss and lustre and gives 1t an ap-
p%earance OF abundance. --Advt.
