The Unsalaried
DrurnrnerS
BY George Matthew Adams.

TF YOU are a Merchant or Manufac-
have are the unrecorded ones in the
form of Satisfied Customers-the Men
and Women and Children that come
into your store or other stores unan-
nounced, and leave as unfussedly, to
carry on and on the Message of the
value behind the Goods you sell.
1t is the Unsalaried Drummer who
makes it possible for you to win in
Business.
Into every Town, City-Country, do
The Unsalaried Drummers go-every-
where your Goods go, they go. And
what your Merchandise is, they are
as Drummers. The people who read
your Books, ride in your Cars, the
Stenographers who run your Typewrit-
ers, those who wear the Clothes you
make and the Food you prepare
each is an tnsalaried Drummer for
you. Ever think of it this way?
Each time you lower the highest
Standard of what you make or sell,
you take away that much, maybe a
million times, from the efficiency of
your Unsalaried Drummers.
Every Man and Woman with sufii-
cient Brails to Think, is a possible
Drummer for you to sell-and each
is your Drummer at NO COST to you.
SO that your greatest concern remains
not for those merely under the range
Of your Eye, but those you never see

Oh, Business Mani In your mad

salaried Drummers that are able to

LastNight's Screams
What They Mean
DID YOU DREAM OF LACK OF
CLOTHING?

! WHEAT is called one of the stand
w ard" dreams, one which is most
annoying and one which everybody al
most, has experienced at least once in
his life, some people many times, is
the dream of finding oneself in a
| rhronged street or in a room filled
with people and suddenly realizing
that one is only partially clothed or
not clothed at all. IL these dreams
the people with whom we find ourself
40 not appear to take any notice of
our unconventional condition, but the
| dreamer is much disturbed and en-
deavors to escape. This dream has
received particular attention from
those scientists who for more than
half century have been investigating
the phenomena of dreams re-
garded as purely mental Tor more ac-
curately psychic), or as physical mani
festations. The dream in question is
said to be the basis of Hans Chris
tian Andersen's story, "The Emper
or's New Clothes" and has been done
into poetry by the German author,
Fulda, in 1.-THE Talisman." 1t is
called by the scientists a STANDARD"
or typical" dream because it is one
which is experienced by all persons
in an identical or almost identical
manner; whereas most of our dreams
are peculiar to ourselves.
The empires, those who interpret
dreams in the old. superstitious. tradi-
tional mystic and unseientific manner
declare the dream under considera-
tion to be bad omen, though they do
not all agree just how bad. They
say it signifies that people are con-
spring against you; that you are soon
to receive an insult; you will be dis
appointed in your friends and rela-
tiyes and it is a warning to you to
mend your ways.
Those scientists who strive to ac-
count for dreams by referring them to
a physical source say that this dream
is simply the result of sensations
by the bedclothes slipping off.
But that does not hold for we fire.
quently have the dream when covered !
up warm.
Professor Freud, the latest and the
most celebrated of investigators of |
dream sources, says in his book, 1.-THE
of Dreams" that the
dream is based upon a recollection of
our earliest childhood. When we were
babies we were seen with Indifference
0y relatives, strangers and servants
dressed and were not
ashamed. These recollections of baby
hood, imprisoned dormant and unre-
callable in our waking hours, are
liberated to us in the dream state.
Dur feeling of uneasiness and desire
o escape though no one notices
,ur nudity, is a reflex from the
of our later lives during
which the habit of being properly
'lothed in public has become part Of
Dur normal existence.

PHILOSOPHY.
By EDGAR A. GUEST

It's all worth while, he used to say
When difficulties lined his way.
| I've never known a trouble yet
| wasn't glad that l had met
The minute had seen it through,
Because it proved what | could do.
I've feared it, looking straight ahead,
I've had my share of doubt anC
dread
And yet, when it was over,
Looked backwards with a laughing
eye
And to myself I'd always say:
You'll boast about that task some day.
I've never known a man so great
That didn't hunger to relate
The hardships and the cares he'G
known
Before success was his to own.
The hunger that had made him whine
Had also helped to make him fine.
The failures that had tried his soul
And seemed barrier to his goal
Had changed their bitterness fo
sweet
And now are memories to repeat.
Mans greatest joy beneath the sun
Is to recall what he has done.
Today / laugh at yesterday
And all the cares that came my way
The past is only grim to those
Who left their courage with its woes.
Who plods along new joys to win
Looks back at trouble with a grin,
And boastfully at times repeats
The misery Of his defeats.
He tells his hardships with a smile
And holds that they were all wortk
while.
For all the secret joys that last
Spring from the hardships of the past |
So into every round of care
And every battle with despair
[ plunge, remembering the fun
That it will mean when / am done.
What hurts me now will some day be
A very pleasant memory.
And laughingly | may recall
In future years the present fall.
What seems today fearful test
uay be tomorrow's source of Jest,
Ind all that calls for courage sioux
30me day I'll proudly boast about.

Charles Klenke training fleas in his
animal shop in New York city. Flea
training is a sideline with Mr.. Klenke,
who hires out squads of the trained
insects to circus performers. Fleas
are easily trained, according to Mr..
Klenke. He takes a good-sized, frisky
flea from one of his animals and puts
1t in small glass bowl which is COW
cred at the top. 1t is naturally anx-
iOus to escape from the bowl, and in
attempting to do so is bumped quite
frequently. After a time it stops
jumping Mr.. Klenke then takes it
from the bowl and harnesses it to a
small cardboard chariot which it haus
about, urged on by straw in Klenkes
hands After a time in harness the
flea forgets he ever could jump.

her soft-roll shirt waist into a home
from which sleep has been banished by
an able-bodied husband who has the gal
Looping toothache and wants everybody
in the block to know it. This enables
a wearied wife to drop at full length
into leather chair and sleep until
she has a crick in the neck which
follows her around for several days.
The trained nurse is obliged to
obey the doctors orders and feed the
patent medicine and run a spirit
thermometer down his throat at reg
ular intervals. AS the average pa
tent, particularly of the male sex,
soon develops a temper that would
raise blisters on a tin roof, she is
obliged to mix tact with the medicine
and sometimes a little brute force.
1t must be admitted that the trained
nurse earns her money and gets it.

Simple Coed Things.
A simple dessert which is easy to
prepare and wholesome for the chill
dren is:
Rice With Prunes and Bananas.
Take well-cooked rice, mold in small
cups or molds and around each place
alternate pieces of cooked prunes and
sliced bananas. Sprinkle lightly with
sugar and cover with whipped cream.
The addition of bit of lemon juice
with bit of the grated rind of the
fruit itself is rather flavorless. Orange
juice with bit of the grated rind of
the fruit may be used also.
Rice is also very nice served with
fig sauce. Take one cupful of figs,
stew in two cupfuls of water and
tablespoonful of sugar until they are
very tender, add teaspoonful Of
lemon juice and serve a tablespoonful
of the sauce with each helping of the
rice.

cahhane Salad De Luxe.

Shred tender crisp cabbage very
fine; add shredded coconut and shred
ded blanched almonds. Add a mayon-
naise to which has been added plenty
of whipped cream. Garnish the salad
with slivers of fresh green pepper.
Take the tender tops of sprouted
turnips, dress with French dressing
and serve as a salad. This will be
something new and very good. One
may spread the turnips out near the
light, bushel or so, and the tops
may be cut from time to time, keeping
a fresh green salad at hand. These
green's are also pretty used as gar
nish.

A balance OF S3U5.o4 cash on nanc.
Our responsibility as citizens, pre-
vents right minded people from
passing by, heedlessly, that which
needs improvement and realizing
that the mayor and council cannot get
the results desired without coopera
ton from every citizen in clean up
work in the city, we have in view the
plan to assist in the work with the
block system.
The street and alley fund has no
cash on hand for this, SO it is yet
not impossible to get results shall we
say, because one person may be
thoughtless in keeping cutters clean,
that we should think it hopeless
task. Since filth breeds disease and
disease makes expense, better far
talk care of the filth.
Rubbish from the hills washes down
to main street cutters, clogging and
filling up the sewers. We pay for
this in taNation, however, so lets try a
plan to prevent part of this.
In riding through city last week
we saw where cutters were in some
places a growth of weeds-just dirt
left from one year to the next made
good seed bed.
We do not like to hear that the
streets Of our city are dirty, but they
are-any one who cares to observe
can realize it.
1t requires one half hour per week
to do the needed work to keep cutters
in order.
Our City Park was a discredit to
our city, with rubbish and papers
inarring the beauty of it needlessly.
Why not containers placed thru the
park in which rubbish can be taken
care of?
We teach a child good manners at
the table, why not some regard for
streets and parks? However, if we
might be mayor and council for a
time, we would learn that suggestion
to laws and obedience to them are
widely apart.
The council committee will help us
in any plan advisable and we hope
for hearty cooperation from every one
pleasure and comfort, to travellers es-
