TRADE PARASITES DESERVE
 SC0RN, NOT PATRONAGE
 OF COMMUNITY THEY INFES7

The itinerant merchant and ven dor is one of the problems that vex the business element of most all tht smaller Alaska towns. This evanes- cent gentry appears from most any where in the States in varying num- bers each year, cleans up a stake by putting in on the business of the es tablished business houses, and de- parts again for parts unknown Aside from a small Territorial li- cense, they pay no taxes, and leave nothing behind them that benefit: either the Territory or the individ- ual who is so disloyal to his own as to patronize them On the contrary, every sale the! make takes money out of the pock- ct of the local merchants and away from the Territory. This is dis, tinct injury to the country and to the business men who invest theii money here, pay taxes and spend most of what they make in the place in which it is made, thus helping to build up the community and de- velop the country. The individua. who patronizes the itinerants is working against the community in- terest and to the detriment of tn, local business men who stay hero and spend their money here. Int local merchants handle everything Or practically everything carried by the itinerants; therefore it is no ex. cuse to say that in buying from them you are getting something you could not secure from the loca
 dealer. It is equally futile to sug- gest that the itinerant sells at a lower price and that you save money
 by patronizing him. You may save a dollar or two at the time but in
 the long run you will find that you have saved nothing. Every dollar you spend outside of the community is loss to the community and in
 the end to yourself. By spending your money outside of the commu, nifty you compel the local merchant to charge more for the things you do buy from him than would be the case if everyone spent his money a; home. Thus in the long run yo, save nothing at all Therefore, dc not let yourself be deceived by the low price bait of the transient ven dor When the local merchant sells you something his personal guaran. tee is behind it. If it does not prov, as represented, good business man. agement demands that he make if good. And he usually will, for he cannot afford to have dissatisfied customers. What the itinerant sells you, you take at your own risk. If it fails to measure up to his repre-. sentations, the loss is yours alone
 Where then is your gain? Re loyal to your community. Give your trade to your local dealer, the man on whose goods and promises you can rely. Give the itineran' vendor a wide berth for he is a det- riment to your town and to your self. If every citizen refuses to patronize these trade parasites they would soon disappear and the Terri. tory and it's people would reap 1; generous profit by their absence Hyder Herald.

Kissing Termed Crime
IN Puritan Neu ENGLAND

Kissing is considered an unhealthfu
practice by some people. A few year.
ago the physicians of Milwaukee, nre
pared a bill for the absolute suppres
sion of kissing, on the ground that the
practice was hygienically dangerous.
The bill did not become a law. or II
would have made Milwaukee more IA
nous, but somewhat similar laws ex-
listed in Puritan New England.
In 1856 Capt. Kemble Of Boston was
set for two hours in the public STOCKS
for his lewd and unseemly behaviour
which consisted in kissing his wife
puoliquely on the Sabbath day mon
the doorstep of his house. when he had
just returned from an absence of three
years" Twelve years later Jonathan
ana Susannah Smith were each fined <
shillings and costs for smiling on tba
Lords day." The smile, it would ap-
pear, was only less heinous than the
Kiss itself.-Detroit News.
