REDUCING SUMMER STOCK.
Problem Whether to Mark Down or
Garry Over to Another Year.

Every merchant confronts in late
July and early August the problem
whether he will mark down his stock
or take chances on carrying it over
another year. No store can get along
without buying more goods than it
can sell at regular prices. 1t must
expect to have special sales Or carry
things over.
A good sale has value apart from
the immediate proceeds of it. The
people who came for a specially ad-
vertised bargain, who bought and
saw the value they were getting, are
good asset to have. They will come
again the next time any article they
want is advertised, and will also
make visits at other times
The merchant can not well await
until late season before starting to
work off his summer stock A mod
crate reduction now will move a lot
OF goods that could only be carried
| out on Dig cut later on.
A special sale simply has to be ad-
vertised literally in order to draw
the crowd. A store can attract atten-
! ton by regular use of a small space,
and it will create its own regular
customers withoct big spiurge ii
the advertising is done regularly.
But TO get the crowd and move lot
OF goods, the merchant has got to
blow in a little. Otherwise it will
seem to the public as if the thing was
not genuine.
People have become used now
,adays to the big advertisements i'll
the large city papers of special sales.
They look to the home merchants to
do the same thing.
There is psychology of the
crowd A well filled store is condu-
Give to buying. If the aisles are
filled, people believe that the sale is
a real thing, and the bargains genu-
inc, their over-caution disappears,
and they buy what they want instead
OF waiting. No other way exists OF
starting the crowd but by a good bic
newspaper advertisement. it costs
some money, and it brings some re
turns. 1t starts business Oh a new
level of prosperity.

Mania For Raw Meat May Cause
Death.

Carson, July 31.-James Braden,
20 years of age, has a we'll develop
ed case of trichinosis and is In very
critical condition from the dread
disease. He was taken i'll three
weeks ago with what the physician
diagnosed as typhoid fever and be-
gan treatment for that ailment but
later when his patient grew worse a
blood test was made which revealed
the real cause Of the young mans ill
ness.
Young Braden has always been
very fond of rare meats and had in
dulged his appetite in raw pork sew
eral times during the summer, which
he regarded highly as deiicacy. To
this fact aud habit was traced the
source of the disease.
The patients joints and muscles
have grown stiff and his feet are bad
ly swollen with the presence of the
minute worms in the arms and legs.

Fell From Load Hay, Neck Broken


A fatal accident happened to Oslo
Severson last Saturday afternoon as
he was at his work at the d. B. Whit
aker farm east of Usage. He was at
the barn assisting in unloading a
load of hay, when he fell off the load,
striking the ground on the back of
his neck and breaking it.
He did not fall great distance,
as most of the hay was off the rack,
however he struck with considerable
force. He was setting the hay fork
and the trip rope broke, causing him
to lose his balance and fall over
backwards off the wagon. The SER
vices of a physician were secured as
soon as possible and he was brought
to the William Woods hospital in this
city. He was past the aid of human
skill and death resulted about 10
o'clock Sunday night. He was COM
pletely paralyzed from his shoulders
down, with the exception that he had
some little use of his hands.-Osage

The Habit of Taking Cold

With many people taking cold is a
habit, but fortunately one that is
easily broken. Take a cold sponge
bath every morning when you first
get out of bed-not ice cold, but a
temperature of about 90 degrees F.
Also sleep with your window up.
Do this and you will seldom take
cold. When you do take cold take
Chamberlain Cough remedy and get
rid of it as quickly as possible. OBJ
tainable everywhere.

Bad Habits.

Those who breakfast at eight
o'clock or later, lunch at twelve and
have dinner at six are almost certain
to be troubled with Indigestion. They
do not allow time for one meal to
digest before taking another. Not
less than five hours should elapse
between meals. If you are troubled
with indigestion correct your habits
and take Chamberlain's Tablets, and
you may reasonably hope for quick
recovery. These tablets strengthen
the stomach and enable it to perform
its functions naturally Obtainable
everywhere.
