The word "milliner" is a

The Other Cheek

On the stools in the crowded lunch
room the customers were eating al
most cheek to cheek. One stool was
occupied by an old and decrept man,
the expression in whose eyes sug-
gested poor vision. Poising his fork
vaguely in the air he managed to ram
it into his neighbors cheek
The injured one broke into fluent
profanity, stopping only on receiving
a violent nudge from his companion.
"Shut up" the latter urged. "Can't
you see he's blind?"
Gosh, l didn't notice." whispered
the wounded man after an inspection.
Then turning around on the stool, he
offered, Here you are, old timer.
Try the other ear, and take good
bite

Not An Effort

A welfare worker at an interior

in paroxyms of grief
Whats the matter buddy?" he in
quired.
ITS this way" replied the soldier,
raising a tear-stained face. when
the draft came they found me right
away, and bingo! comes my number
right out of the hat. But now that
I'm here where they can put their
fingers on me any minute they wont,
seems like they don't make the slight

HOME CONCERNS.
GAN SUPPLY ALL
TRADE DEMANDS
Excuse That Mail Order De-
voice Offers Has No Found
alton In Past; Prosperity
Means Home Patronage.
TRADE AT HOME
(Copyright)

One of the stock excuses of the man
who orders goods from mail order
house is that there are many things
that he wants that the local mer-
chants do not carry in stock, and that
it is necessary for him to send away
from town to get them.
This explanation may be all right
on the theory that a poor excuse is
better than none, but it fails to pass
muster when it is subjected to a lit
tie scrutiny.
Ask the man who offers this as an
excuse, for his dealings with the mail
order man why he does not 60 to the
local merchantand ask him to order
the articles desired if they are not to
be found in the merchants stock. The
merchant will very gladly do this, and
the merchant and customer will both
profit. The merchant can sell you
whatever you desire at as low price
as the mail order house can make YOU
on goods the same quality and he can
make small profit.
The customer will profit from the
transaction, because he will be deal
ing with merchant who stands back
of the goods that he sells, and who
is easily assessible in case the arti-
cles purchased do not prove to be
all that the customer had expected.
Gave Tome Merchant Preference
Why not try this plan the next time
you need something which you can
not find in any of your home stores !
The merchant in the average sized
town cannot carry in stock everything
that all the people in his town may
want at all times larger than the
average merchant can command to do
this, but he does the best he can. He
ordinarily does carry in stock at all
times many things for which there
is no general demand, in order that he
may meet the needs of his customers
to the greatset possible degree, but
there is limit to his purchasing abil-
ity. He is always ready and willing,
however, to make every effort to meet
the demands Of the community. Why
