The PILL fAKER
REGRETS OLDDAYS
THEY USED TO BITE THEN, is
THE REASON HE Is MOURN
NOW-CAN'T GATHER A CROWD
IN A MONTH NOW TO BUY PAT
EMIT NOSTRUMS.

Wall Street Journal: The modern
department store was uncomfortable a
hundred years ago. The operation of
cigar stores and drug stores by the
hundred under one management is a
recent novelty. Transformation of
the chemists shop to the so-caIled
drug store, doing business in knick-
hacks, novelties, soda and tobacco,
with the chemistry department al
most out of sight in the rear, is an
other modernism, and a great change
a also taken place in the sale of
cure all quack medicines. One of the
oldest travelling pill takers of this
country thus narrates:
Il was the oldest travelling man
pushing the sale of DR.. --'s pills
from Maine to the capital of Mexico.
L wore my tall hat or my Mexican
sombrerO with a wealth of false hair
falling over my shoulders, had al
vance agents bill posting the towns
and shipped my horse and buggy, or
sold them to buy in another place, ac-
cord1ng to distance. 1 had liberal al
loWance for expenses and 25 per cent
OF all gross sales, and ave another
20 per cent to the distributors left
beh1nd-the drug store of the corner
grocery.
Those Were the Days.
Those were great times and I salt
ed away thousands. 1t was easy to
gather a crowd and to get them going,
even though 1 had to employ a half
dozen cappers to make the first pur-
chases with my own money.
Now o could not gather a, crowd
In a months time to buy patent nos
trums. You could not even enagage
men today to act as cappers. Lii
censes in the various towns and cit
les are prOhibitive. From a nominal
Zee of a dollar or two the rate was
steadily raised until it reached $50 a
day, with no allowance for weather.
This local taxatRE4 hurt the bust
ness, The habits of people have al
Lsa changed. But what put me@1ut of
fEa!fness was the United States gov
eminent cutting my boss out Of the
mails. He was doing an enormous
hbusiness then, accumulated 3d. 900, 900
Fof profits, had $50 travelling men on
the road and $50 stenographers in
the main office. I have seen him
take owe $780, 900 out Of one mornings
mail. When the United States gov
eminent shut down on him the post
office. returned between 5000, 900 and
$500, 900 that was on the way in the
mails.
my boss went to Washington with
a protest and three trunkloads of
testimonials, but Uncle Sam told him
frankly, we have been after you for
nearly two years under the pure
5~sfooxIaw. You. have not got any
NsSMy that will cure everything in
mani hogs, COWS and hens, and you
know it, and we know it, and we are
going to protect the farmers of this
Country and even of Mexico. Quit,
ofNUncle Sam will pay your board
blllffsr the next few years. Yes,
times have changed"

undo? What has he left undone that
they would do? What has he done
that they would be likely to do bet
ter?
Tt is always easier for a minority to
criticise than for a majority to act,
and it is a matter of record that no
other administration since the civil
war has accomplished so much in an
equal period of time as the Wilson ad-
m~inistration. ~
All the fundamental differences in
principle that existed between the re-
publicans and the progressives in 1912
exist now. These differences can be
forgotten, but they cannot be recon
ciled. The only basis for a compro-
mise lies in the fact that Mr.. Roose-
Welt is personally stronger than any
candidate the republicans can name,

datory poverty? Worse still, would it
enter upon a war of conquest?
Both complain of the Wilson eco
nomic policies; but would a repub-
lican-progressive party halt the in
vestigation into New Haven corrup-
ton, would it refuse to enact laws
giving the interstate commerce COM
mission power owe railroad capitali-
cation, would it ever repeal the pro-
posed amendments to the Sherman
antitrust act, in case they become
law? Would it give the government
back to Wall street?
Most of the progressives and many
republicans OPPOSE the repeal of the
Panama coastwise exemption clause;
but will either faction promise to tear
up the Hay-Pauncefote treaty and give
the coastwise monopoly $1,000, 900 or so
year at the expense of all the Amer
lean people?

Diagnoses Mexican characteristics.
Dickinson, N. D., June 12.-The
Mexicans have least respect for Amer
leans of any nationality, according to
F. w. Kunz, a former resident of the
Midway district, near here. He was
imprisoned in Mexico soon after Vera
Cruz was taken by the Americans and
released only after the English consul
had taken IN his case.
Kunz is interested in investments at
Vista Hermosa, about seventy miles
south of Vera Cruz. He and three
others were arrested and taken about
eighty miles to Cordoba, where they
were Jailed.
A change of presidents will not be
of any material benefit, he says.
