Keached From Grave
to Deliver Rebukes
‘The following is an excerpt from the
will of a‘Wall street man, which was
Qrobated in the New York courts:
“To my wife, I leave her lover and
the knowledge that I wasn’t the foo!
she thought I was,
“To my son, I leave the pleasure of
earning a living. For thirty-five years
he has thought that the pleasure was
«ll mine. He was mistaken,
“To my daughter, I leave $100,000.
She will need it. The only good piece
of business her husband ever did wag
<0 marry her.
“Toe my valet, I leave the clothes
that he has been stealing from me reg-
ularly for the past ten years. Also my
fur coat that he wore last winter whep
¥ was in Palm Beach.
“To my chauffeur, I leave my cars.
He almost ruined them and I want him
to have the satisfaction of finishing
“he job.
“To my partner, I leave the sug-
gestion that he take some other clever
man in with him at once if he expects
to do any business.”—Wall Street
Journai,
The Cup of Paris
Paris, the great gay city, is con-
tained within a cup, says a writer in
the” Continental edition of the London
Daily Mail. You may discover it one
day perbaps from a pleasant roof gar-
«den and be suddenly surprised to find
the «city so definitely contained.
Wherever you will look there at last
appear the soft green hills peeping so
serenely down upon the welter of life
in the city below. You may even see
the trees on the hills, so near are they.
We used to think the city was so big
and spread so far, and the Place de
ia Concorde, what a mighty space it
was! There even now we see the
dome of the Pantheon, the towers of
Notre Dame, the sudden smoky shoot
of the Eiffel tower. Gigantic things
we used to think them. But now how
easily they are held in the cup of the
laughing hills!
Drowned Out Conscience
The preacher had told Uncle Ben
that in moments of temptation he must
listen to the still, small voice of con-
science. And Uncle Ben, in the con-
duct of his second-hand store, tried
hard to obey the injunction.
Sut when Mirarsly Jones in a mo
nent of unguarded enthusiasm, of-
fered him $5 for a calico dress for
which he hadn't expected to get more
than $1.44, he couldn't withstand it.
Al fell,” he confessed to the
preacher afterward. “Ah couldn't
help it.”
Didn't you listen to the voice ox
conscience?” asked the minister. g
‘Ah listened hard,” was the an
awer, “but honest. Ah couldn't hear
nuthin’ fo’ the sound of the cash reg-
ister.”
Words That Work Hard
fhere are words it is almost impos
sible’ to avoid using, however carefully
we may try to do so.
lt is said that a quarter of the task
of expressing oneself in the English
language is borne by nine words—
and, be, have, it, of, the, to, will and
you. It is also asserted that these
nine. with 34 other words, form half
the words the average talker uses -in
ordinary conversation,
I'he additional 34 words are as fol
ows: About, all, as, at, but, can, come,
day. dear, for, get, go, hear, if, in, me,
much, not, on, say, she, so, that, these,
they, this, though, time, we, with,
write, your, her, and one.
Were you truly thankful ?

MARKETS NEEDED
BY THE FARMERS
. Presence of Thriving Cities Near
By, Important to Residents
of Country.
MERCHANTS DO THEIR PART
Town and Rural Community Are De
pendent Upon Each Other—Co
operation Alone Brings Pros-
perity to Both.
(Copyright.)
Residents of towns and cities every-
where are beginning to realize more
acutely the fact that, except under
very unusual conditions, their commu-
nities will prosper and develop only
in proportion to the prosperity and de-
velopment that comes to the farming
sections which surround them. Real-
izing this fact, commercial clubs and
chambers of commerce have in recent
years been devoting as much of their
attention to developing the country
districts as they have to securing new
industries and attracting new resi-
dents. They know that as the coun-
try about the towns becomes more
thickly settled and as the farmers be-
come more prosperous the more money
will be spent in the towns and the
faster these towns will grow. It is
largely for this reason that the resi-
dents of the towns and cities have
- been doing more and more to aid the
farmers in growing bigger crops and
in improving marketing conditions.
The towns and cities have contributed
more and more liberally toward the
building of good roads in the country
| districts and have paid a large part
of the expense of maintaining agri-
cultural experts to assist the farmers
in growing bigger crops and getting
more money out of their crops when
they are placed on the market.
Not One-Sided Proposition.
But this is not a one-sided proposi-
don. If the city is dependent upon
the country, so is the country depend-
, ent upon the city. What the farmer
raises is worth absolutely nothing to
him unless he can sell it at a price that
will pay him a fair return on the
money and time invested in its pro-
duction. The farmer, without mar-
kets, would be in the same fix as a
storekeeper without customers. In al-
most every case the farmer is de-
vendent upon the near-by town or city
for a market for at least his perish-
able products.
In the langaage of the street, it is
a fifty-fifty proposition. The town
: needs the country and the country
' needs the town. The farmer needs the
| assistance of the storekeepers of the
town in securing a market for his
products. He needs the assistance of
the storekeepers of the town in getting
good roads over which he may haul his
products without losing more time
~ than the products are worth. He often
needs the assistance of the storekeep-
ers in helping him over a period of
financial stringency. .
Storekeeper Needs Farmer's Trade.
On the other hand the storekeeper
| seeds the business of the farmer. He
| does not ask the farmer to sell him his
| products on credit even though at the
time he may be hard pushed for cash
and may need more credit badly. He
does not ask the farmer to help him
build a sidewalk in front of his store.
He does not ask for the business of
the farmer provided that he can sell
the farmer the goods he needs at as
low a price as he can secure them for
elsewhere.
But does he always get the firmor's
vusiness? Ask the mail. order man
in the big city or ask the postmaster
or the express agent in any town or
city in the country. They could, if
they would, tell of thousands of dollars
sent away to the big cities to pay for
goods that could be purchased just as
cheaply and much more conveniently
in the nearest town or city. These
thousands of dollars, when sent to the
mail order houses in the big cities,
never come back. They do not help
to build good roads past the farmers’
houses. When the next crops are har-
vested, the mail order man won’t buy
any of the farmer’s products. The
potatoes, the tomatoes, the melons and
| other things that the farmer raises
may lie and rot upon the ground so
far as the mail order man is concerned.
No Credit From Mail Order Man.
The mail order man won't sell the
farmer 2 cents’ worth eof goods on
one’ day's credit no matter how badly
the farmer may need the goods or how
little ready cash he has to pay for
them. If the farmer's house burns
down, the mail order man is not go-
ing to sell him any lumber on credit
so that he may build another home.
He will take what cash he can get the
farmer to send him and there his in-
terest in the farmer ends. Jf the farm-
er has no money to pay for what he
needs, the mail order man will find
others to help swell the stream of dol-
lars which is building up his great for-
tune and helping build up the great
city in which he lives. Let the home
merchant help the farmer when he
needs it. And the local merchant does
help the farmer as long as he can, but
there comes a time when he cannot.
He cannot make money without cus-
tomers, Without the legitimate profit
that he makes from his sales he can-
not “carry” the farmer over the rough
spots, he ¢annot contribute to the good
roads funds, he cannot pay the farmer |.
