The Merchant And His Credits

A travelling salesman was remarking
the other day that he had sold the
usual quantity of goods the past few
months, in spite OF the war and other
depressing causes. But he had found
many of his customers hard up because
OF the unusual number of requests for
credit. 1t was his opinion that In both
good aud bad times the American
people are getting in too easy going
habits about payment of bills.
1t q not always the hard-pressed
working man on short time who lodges
the bili-collector the most actively.
Many of the well-to-do are habituaIly
slow to pay. They make requisite for
further accommodation with the air of
comforting a lordly favor.
When the victim of ill-health or other
misfortune asks for q bill of goods on
trust, 1t is often practically q request
for charity. The merchant fails to see
why he should carry the whole burden
of the c~ommunity's misfortunes; so he
charges UP to his whole trade the ex-
peuse Of bad debts. Thus the frugal
aud thrifty, who may live even parsi-
m~oniously, are compelled to pay for
Injuries for the extravagant.
There are Of course some applications
for credit that are legitimate. People
have to take risks. start outon new ven
lures with small capital, seek better po-
sltions, or industry would stagnate. II
fortune goes wrong, creditors must wait
q reasonable time. But when people on
wages or salary bank on their dreams,
they commonly go broke.
Many people, finding a ten-doIlar bill
IN their pockets, feel sanguine, step
high, and send the Trademarks wagons
hustiing with deliveries to their homes.
The fact that old accounts are due is for
gotten.
1.-The beat New years resolution is to
pay every debt you possibly can even IL
you have to wear your old clothes to
church." Thus concluded the salesman
whose remarks suggested these refiec-
tons, and he was right.
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1915-01-15

In spite Of the demands for charity
and the number of people out Of work.
there are people who have O o
to spend, and more people who have
money to spend, than ever before. One
of the big dry goods stores announces
that it did a larger business last year
than eyer before In its history. That
statement owe the period just follow
ing the outbreak of the war, when bust
ness was SO thoroughly demoralized.
REIMBURSEMENT has already begun, SO
that the outlook for the year to come is
indicative of greater prosperity than
was apparent in the year just closed.
IF 1914 was good for trade, 1915 will
be better, as the returns from our in
creasing exports become distributed
more widely through the channels of
trade. We have turned the corner and
we shall be out of the woods of finan-
cial depression long before Europe is
out of its nightmare Of war.-Brooklyn
Eagle.

In Memory OF Mrs. Edna B. Cobb
By a Friend

Wen ali be Together Again
When dear ones have left us to journey
afar
Der mountain or prairie or sea,
Our thoughts travel oft where the low
ing ones are,
And lonely we often must be,
But sweet is the thought of the home
coming time
To women and children and men;
1t rings like the bells, with a musical
chime;
Well I'll be together again.
When sickness and trouble break into
our lives
When cares throng in manifold ways
When many a wearlsome burden con-
trges
To mar the sweet peace of our days,
lis blessed to hope there'n be happi-
ness yet;
That shining will follow the rain;
That those who now hate will forgive
and forget
And we'll all be together again.
When lives have been sundered by
deaths cruel hand
When dear IN NO more have u
care,
All happy and safe in the beautiful
land
So safe they no more need prayer,
Oh, blessed the thought OF the meeting
once more
Beyond all the sorrow and pain;
Where nothing is wrong on the heaven
ly shore,
And we'll all be together again.

Tor five hours and thirty minutes
skillfully resisted the insidious on

Cook
AT times tho combat was thrilling.
Ihaw seemed now and then to be on
the verge OF breaking down-hls eyes
opened wide, his fac. twitched AMI
lie was apparently at loss for the
words with which to meet Cooks
thrust. He then gripped himself,
paused. smiled and rounded out his
answer with perfect sense and reason.
He evaded half dozen traps which
were carefully laid for hiu. He shot
replies at Cook with suddenness
which sent murmurs of approval
through the crowded and absorbed
courtroom He matched wits with his
cross-examiner. showed temper. sound
ed me note OF defiance, and ir at least
one instance-when he narrated the
story told him by Evelyn Nesbit OF
her treatment by Stanford white. upon
which his outburst of insanity IL based
he attained real eloquence.
INSISTED on PROCEEDING
TO END OF EXAMINATION
When the end OF the afternoon ses-
sion came he was plainly tired. There
were deep lines in his face. and he
laborodly from the exertion OF his
efforts: but he insisted on proceeding
to the end of his examination at the
night session, and only the interven-
ton of counsel and the refusal Of the
court to permit the attempt prevented
him from battling into the night.
When he stepped from the witness
ward in congratulations. He smiled his
acknowledgements lighted cigar and
strolled off with his counsel.
1t was agreed on all sides that Thaw
had made the most effective plea for
liberty that has been uttered for him
since his commitment to. Matteawan.
At the end Of the day. his whole life
had been covered exhaustively by Cook
down to the shooting OF Stanford
White Tomorrow morning, Cook
will attack Thaw upon that line. and
here Will come the supreme test.
Fortified by the success which at
tended his efforts to-day, Thaw said
tonight that he was supremely con-
fident that he would come through the
ordeal with flying colors.
He wen. on tho stand at 1920 o'clock
this morning, and with the exception
OF fve-minute recess midway in the
session, was in action constantly until
o'clock. Resuming tho stand again
at 2 o'clock, he was again constantly
under the examination with the ex-
ception OF five-minute recess, until
court adjourned at o'clock until 10
o'clock tomorrow morning.
He Will probably continue on the
stand most of tomorrow. Information
from Chateaugay Lake tonight made
it extremely improbable that Mrs
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, because OF illness
will be able to appear at the trial.
The case will probably go to the
jury on Tuesday night.
