A CANNIBAL DOMAIN

more battling than the Papuan interiorl
1t is one of the very few regions yet total
ly unchartered. There are, doubtlessl
good reasons why more explorers have|
not been attracted by the Papuan task.
One reason may be a fear that the Pap-|
uans, in an hour of need, might showj
themselves lacking in discrimination and
partake of the explorers.
There is to be no going forth against
the cannibals this year. There is to be|
a period of peace and plenty for the shag1
gy tribes. For two of the three nal
lions of Europe which have made theo-I
retical annexation of Papua are going to|
fight each other right in Papua. 1t will
be an amazing spectacle for the humans
in gorilla form who are the native own-|
ers of the land. Master will fight against
master. And, at the end of the fight
ing, there will be no proper Papuan COLI
lation. Papuans fight only for food, and III
will be difficult for them to understand
the meaning of fighting which has no SUCH
motive
Your Papuan going out to kill an enemy
for breakfast is abhorrent but compre-I
hensble. Your European going out to kill|
few enemies for nothing in particular
is abhorrent, but not comprehensive. CIV
iization. diligently applying both logic and
ethics, is as puzzled as the Papuan whol

presented with an almost here that pre-

that the very spirit of the Bible is en-
bodied in such manner as to inspire
reverence and deep religicus conviction.
I understand that the pictures were made
at the suggestion of a number of prom
inent ministers and educators. who felt
that the pictures should be used to teach
the gospel and to pictorially impreg-

President Wilson as a Speaker

II read recently an interview in The
Age-Herald with someone who recalled
President Harrison as a ready speaker,
and / remember myself to have heard
him several times when / thought he
was exceptionally felicitous; but Pres
ident Woodrow Wilson is. perhaps, the
best equipped President for making adj
dresses that We have ever had, long or
short" said an ex-politician, who lived
for many years In Washington.
President Wilson's Indianapolis speech
was full of fresh ideas pithily expressed
1t was delivered offhand and taken stem
geographically. When he makes his IS OF
40 addresses in the west next month
they will, I imagine. reach the highest
record in sustained effort. President Har.
rison was a fine speaker. but Wilson
is even better, judging from the way
his addresses read. have never hat
the pleasure of seeing him."

Death of Mrs. S. A. Porter.

Jonesville, Feb. 15.-Mrs. S. A..
Porter died at her home here Friday
evening about three o'clock. Mrs.
Porter had been suffering for many
years with that distressing disease,
asthma and for the fact that she was
woman of much energy and great
will power, she would have sue
eumbed to the disease long ago, but
grippe set in upon her only three days
before her death and she soon gave
way and the end came peacefully and
quietly. Mrs. Porter was about To
years of age and had been left a
widow for many years, her husband,
Marion S. Porter, having been killed
by the machinery of his stone mill,
leaving Mrs. Porter with six children
most of them quite small, but she
had great nerve and energy and she
brought them all up with good chris
tian training. Her troubles did not
end with the loss of her husband. but
later on son, FAINT died and then
still later the tragic death of her
Youngest child and daughter, Mrs.
w. T. Jones, but she bore all this
as only a sweet christian spirit
trusting in God can do, and she
looked forward to time when she
would be reunited to her sweet baby
girl in a better land, consequently
death had no terror for her. She had

He Is the chap who gives you credit

He is the chap who gives you back
your money or makes exchanges
when you are not satisfied with what
you have bought.
He is the chap who stands behind
MS guaranty, and makes restoration
OF all losses that you may sustainI
on the goods you buy.
He is the chap who meets you att
the door with handshake, and lets
you out with message to the "kids'
and real come again goodbye.
tie is the chap who meets and
greets you on the street every day|
in the year, and takes a neighborly|
interest in your family and your
affairs.
He is the chap whose clerks and
bookkeepers and other employees live
in Union and spend their money with
you and with other Union people.
He Is the chap who pays heavy|
taxes to help support Union schools!
and build Union streets, and maintain
Union fire department and police de-
partments, and parks, and lighting
and water service.
He is the chap who helps support
Union churches and hospitals and
charity organizations, and Union
lodges and commercial clubs, and
talks for Union every day in the year.
He is the chap who visits you
when you are sick, sends flowers I'd
your family when you die, and fell
lows youc body out among the .rees
and tombs, AS far as human feet may
travel with the dead.
He is your home merchant. ..your
neighbor-your friend-your helper
in times of need.
Don't you think that you ought to
trade with him, and be his friend and
his helper in the time of his need?
Don't you know that every dollar
that you send out of Union for mer-
chandise, is sent to strangers men
who never spend a dollar in Union, to
men who would not trust you for a
box of matches, to men who would
turn you over to the police if YOU
should enter their offices?
You don't save much, frequently
nothing, when you send your money
out of Union and you take all the risk
yourself of short weight or measure
and of getting damaged or inferior
goods. And don't you know that the
growth and prosperity of Union de-
pends very largely upon the success
and prosperity of the home mer-
chan? Out-of-town people Judge our
city by the appearance OF our stores
and the degree of enterprise shown
by our merchants. And our home
merchants can not succeed unless
home folks give them loyal support.
