A Busy Man.

A customer of large downtowh
tailoring establishment was getting
service out of a suit Of clothes he had
not paid for. Statement after state
ment was sent to the customer and
finally a letter informing the man that
unless he paid his bill the matter
would be put in the hands of the COM
rany's attorney. That awakened the
customer. He fastened to the store
and demanded to see the head Of
the company. He asserted the only
reason for not paying the bill wos that
he had been SO busy with other af-
fairs that he had overlooked his debt
to the tailoring company.

told the president of the company.

Donoitian Swatted Flies.

The original "swat the fly" man was
Domitian, Roman emperor from 81 to
B6 A. d. History records little good Ut
Donitian, but it does say that he an
ticipated the anti-hy movement by more
than 1900 years. Maltrea ring the
huzzing pests was his favortte amuse-
ment. it is recorded. but ne was not
animated by desire to save babies
lives or avert epidemics.
One biographer says of the Old Roman
that lone of his favorite pastimes was
hunting and killing flies" and Sueto-
MUS. the famous historian. wrote thus
Of Domitian: I'm the beginning Of his
reign he used to spend daily an hour
by himself in private. during which
time he did nothing else but catch flies
and stick them through the body with
a sharp pin."-New York Tribune.

GLOVE APPLES.
Spicy Odored Ornaments That Were
Once Quite Common.


Once Quite Common.
The manufacture of Glove apples.
common in the days of our grandmoth.
erS. is very simple. You can take an
apple. the rounder and sounder and
bigger the better. and into it stick
cloves as thickly as possible, with only
the, heads showing and forming close
continuous surface all over. Put it In
drawer or on q mantelpiece or
whatnot. and time will do the rest.
The Glove apple becomes dry and Gu
riously hard. maintains it's form per,
fectly and acquires an approximation
of immortality-if carefully protected
IF course from accidents and children.
The latter. If memory serves. were
wont to annoy the grandmothers of
Glove apple days by decapitating the
cloves or, If especially miscellaneous. by
working at one of them till it came out
whole. Either achievement. when dis
covered. as Halwaps was soon. caused
indignant oratory always and wrong
stories'' not infrequently.
The exact purpose Of the Glove ap
pie, whether 1t was valued as a curio
or as the source of Il pleasant. spicy
odor. the present commentator does
not remember. if he ever knew. In
value. however, it ranked we'll up with
the shells brought from foreign strands
by seafaring husbands and sons. and
both were about equally durable.--New
York Times.

To take great pains and spend large

WHY 1T sU CEEDS

and High Point People Appreciate
This.
Nothing can be good for every

Doing one thing well brings sue

Doan's Kidney Pills are for one

For weak or disordered kidneys.
Here is High Point evidence to
prove their worth.
Mrs. S. o. PEBBLES, 214 Willow

Kidney Pills have been used in our
family on several occasions. When
any of US are bothered by backache
or kidney disorders, we get benefit

CAN'T AFFORD 1T

The other day merchant said he
couldn't afford to advertise in his home
newspaper. If the man view were not
distorted, he would See that he couldn't
afford not to advertise Refusing to adver-'
tiSe is his most expensive extravaganza.
!. That Stme merchant will spend hours
telling of the 'unfair'' competition of the
mail-order houses who are his mOet ag-
gressive and dangerous competitors, yet
the methods employed by the mail-order
houses which succeed are the ones which
the merchant refuse Ito use. The mail-order
house first of all is an ADVERTISER.
Advertising is the life of it's business.
Every magazine that enters the small
town and rural home carries the ad of the
mail-order house. Expensive catalOgS
are printed showing the illustrations of
the actual articles. Occasionally sheets
are scattered broadcast over the country
as special 'scome-on' for the bargain
hunter. instead of doing these things in
a smaller way through the columns of his
local paper, the merchant who can't at
ford to advertise sits down and "cuSSeS"
his tough luck and wonders why he can't
get the business. He never thinks he
has a better opportunity to reach the
people in his neighborhood than the mail
order house has. 1t doesn't cost him as
much as it does the outsider; he can draw
the people to his store and show them the
actual article he is advertising, and when
they buy, they can take their purchase
home with them instead of having to wait
for several weeks for it. Advertising is
an investment. 1t should be charged to
your selling cost. Figure what percen-e
tage you have have to pay to advertise,
then base a fifty two weeks campaign on
the computation. You can't lose. You
can't afford NOT to advertise.

heard reports circulated in regard
to finding foreign substance in the
city reservoir but paid no attention
to them and thought itbest not even
to refer to the matter in the columns
of the paper. It is well nigh impos-
sible for any one to throw or place
anything Objectionable into the res

embankment surrounding it as a

Good COWS are quoted at %. so and

HOGS Not withstanding the fact
that Portland prices nave been the
highest in the United States for some
time past marketing has not been as
liberal as expected. Top hogs opened
Monday at s7.25 and are selling at

short of supplies and are willing taxi
