THE HOME MERCHANT.

The home merchant. Who Is
he? Here's the answer:
He is the chap who gives you
credit when you are financially
broke, and carries your account
until you are able to pay.
He is the chap who gives you
back your money or makes ex-
changes when you are not sat
isfied with what you have
bought.
W He is the chap who stands
behind his guarantee, and
makes restoration of all losses
that you may sustain on the
goods you buy.
He is the chap that adver-
tises in his home paper, or
ought to, ecause the home pa
per pleads with the people to
/. patronize home merchants in
stead of the mail order houses.
He is the chap-but why
continue the story. The four
paragraphs above cover the
case pretty thoroughly; how
ever, he is the chap you should
patronize and thus keep your
money In circulation here.

which will be impossible to get in
the future because of the rapid
spread of the white mans influ-
ence.
In telling of the discovery of the
lost race of pigmies. DR.. Vanden-
borgh asserted that in the course
of evolution those people have
been pushed back into the Congo
jungle by the larger and more
powerful tribes who have usurped
the more desirable positions on the
western shores of Lake Albert
Nyanza. Because Of their inability
to cope physically with their
reighbors, however, DR.. Vanden-
borgh says he notices a develop
ment of cunning which places the
pigmles in striking contrast with
their neighbors.
He declares they believe in the
existence of the spirit after death,
and have evolved a sort of religion
which might be termed spiritual
ism. They believe they can COM
municate with the spirits of de-
parted friends and relatives, and
that they have device not unlike
the ouija board, by means of which
they believe they can talk with the
dead.
Although the women are held
practically as slaves. DR.. Vanden-
borgh declares there has recently
been a feministic movement, and
that women are becoming dissat-
isfied with life IN the darkest parts
of the jungle and are agitating a
migration out of the jungle into
the sunshine. Possibly because of
this independence of women, said
DR.. Vandenbourgh, the pigmies, un-
like all other African natives, are
monogamus. They also have
code of morals which forbids mari
tai infidelity and theft.

Six Men in Auto Accident

Mystery surrounds an accident which
occurred shortly before o'clock Mon
day morning on the state road at Draw
yers Creek, about one mile above
Odessa, in which touring car, appar-
emily driven at high speed, was over
turned in the creek when the driver
failed to make the sharp turn at this
point.
In the car were six colored men and a
baby, which was claimed to be but one
wear and ten months of age. One of
the men, who gave his name and ad-
dress as Stanley Maxville, Chester, Pa,
had deep cash cut in his head by the
broken windshield and nearly bled to
death before the wound could be dress
ed by doctor in Odessa.
The other five men, who said they
were from Philadelphia, were not in
iured seriously and the baby was un-
hurt. The men said they were on their
way from Viola, Del, a short distance
below Dover, to Philadelphia. After
the accident tn. baby was kept in a
colored tenant house near the creek and
the idenity of the child could not be
learned. The mystery lies in the fact
that,a baby of that age should be along
with six men at tnat hour of the night
on so long a trip. without any women
companions.

Dairymen Apply For Tests

Approximately 500 applications for
the tnberculin test to be made on dairy
herds throughout the State have been
filed with the State Live Stock Sanitary
Board, in accordance with the recent
ruling of the State Board of Health.
This ruling requires that after August
/ of this year, no milk or cream can be
sold in this State unless it is pasteurized
or obtained from cows which have sue
cessfully passed the tuberculin test for
one year. 1t is believed that this num-
ber, together with the $50 herds which
have already become accredited" and
are reckoned as ''clean' herds, repre-
sents the major portion of the milk and
cream producing and selling agencies in
the State.

Dumped Potatoes in River

Fearing glut in the white potato
market and a consequent lowering of
prices, about eighty car loads of po-
tatoes were dumped in the Delaware
River north of Wilmington during the
past week, according to statements
made by a railroad man. Most of these
potatoes came from the Delaware
peninsula, it is said, but owing to an
overstocked market the buyers decided
they could save money by throwing
away the surplus rather than dump
them on the market and cause slump
in prices. -Erening Journal.
