DON'T EXPECT TOO MUCH

the evils they have complained Of in
the past are not cured by the latest
republican victory. 1t may not be out
OF place Just now to relate an incident
connected with the election of McKin-
ley in 1896. At that time the country
was in a deplorable condition. Corn
was selling at about Is cents and hogs
$1.s0 to 500. Some six weeks after
election an old farmer living near Jol-
ley wrote to Dolliyer to remind him of
his promises during the campaign that
the election Of Mckinley would bring
about a better condition. Dolliver,
with his usual ready wit, wrote back
as follows: Dear Friend: Your letter
at hand. Now as to getting out of the;
condition which the democratic party
has gotten US, it is like attempting to-
drive through Hell slough near your
place; you know you can get farther
into that slough in five minutes than
you can get out In six weeks. We have
been four years getting into this con-
diton and It is going to take some tipe.
to get out.

IMPOSING on THE FARMER

Remsen BellEnterprise: Besides pay.
ing excellent prices to corn pickers,
and furnishing them lodging and board
such as most Of the transients would
not enjoy in their accustomed haunts
iii the cities, many farmers are being
Imposed upon by strangers who are too
lazy to work and who want nothing
more than q square meal and a little
money to carry them further on their
ralnblings. Many reports have been
made of strangers who apply for work
as corn pickers, get job and then stay
long enough to fill their empty stom-
aohs at the farmers expense and then
move on. Others have. been accepting
jobs during rainy weather feeding them
selves for several days at the farmers
we'll provided table and then moving on.
The easiest time, it is said, to get a
strange corn picker to the farm is to.
ward the end Of the week and it later
develops that he came merely to spend
Sunday with good room and good
board. Nevertheless many Of them are
good. honest fellows, but the only ones
that, can be depended upon for steady
work are the men WHO have formed an
acquaintance in the neighborhood and
are known to be reliable.

THE ALERT STORE

7 Some stores are satisfied to use just
the same lines Of merchandise year at.
ter year.
/ Other stores are alert every minute
to where they can get the last dollar of
value. They are constantly looking
over different lines searching for spe-
cial opportunities. testing out new Of
fering, trying to get the very best
thing offered in the competitive strug-
gle. III ..
Such a policy involves more work.
But thorough investigation Of all sour
ces Of supply yields chances to buy to
better advantage. Dealers realize they
must make a special effort to please
such a house. r
I Having made all this effort such a
store is not usually satisfied to sit still
and let the public come in if it cares
to. Its effort will be useless unless it
tells the public in detail what offerings
of special value 1t has been able to
find. Hence such concern is usually
