—I have nothing against any
brand of climate except ours.
An insurance man got me all het
up recently by offering some sick
insurance that is noncancelable.
Whadayamean, I naturally wanted
to know. Well, it turned out that
the sick insurance I carried might
be canceled at the end of the year
if the company should decide to

leave me in the lurch. So I had
to summon Henry and hear his de-
fense. Sure, Henry told me, we can
decline to renew your policy when-
ever we decide that you are a bad
risk; but well sell you one con-
taining a clause which makes it
non-cancelable, if you wish to pay
an additional premium to cover that
additional risk. Then being a friend

to have a non-cancelable sick in-
surance policy, for all you need is
a doctor who will certify that you're
badly run down and simply must
go fishing down there for several
weeks in the winter time, ete.
Pretty soft, if you are fond of
wintering in the South and have the
right kind of doctor to indorse your
claim.
This changing climate is largely
that sort of thing. The patient, not
the doctor, proposes the change, if
indeed a doctor is consulted at all.

Twenty-five years ago a medical
teacher in the wards of a hospital
asked one of the students: “Why do
we advise change of climate in a
case of asthma?” The student an-
swered: ‘Because you can't do any-
thing for him and hate to have him
hanging around.” A very good an-
swer for 25 years ago. Today a
better answer would be that we ship

doctor finds that out, then the pa-

escape further ‘attacks; or the pa-

substance if it is impossible to avoid
contact with it.

{ It has been said that three-fourths
| or nine-tenths, or some such big pro-
| portion—the exact figures do not mat-
| ter—of the business of the world is
i done on credit. If this was not true
| there wouldn't be much business done
i for no currency system could be de-
vised that would furnish enough money
| to meet the needs of commerce if ev-
| ery article sold had to be paid for in
. actual cash. The amount of money in
circulation in the United States is only
$47 per capita and this would not go
. very far if everyone had to keep
! enough cash on hand to pay for all
that he might buy. :
| The greatest of financiers need crea-
it. They keep their resources employ-
| ed and at times are in need of ready
; cash. The same thing is true at times
i of men of smaller means. The credit
system, as it is used sometimes, espe-
cially in the smaller communities, is
abused and works a serious hardship
upon the business men of the town.
Some merchants, to avoid the loss that
results from such abuse of the system
, or possibly to enable them to sell
goods at a lower price than their com-
| petitors, operate strictly on a cash -ba-
isis, but the great majority of mer-
| chants in every communtty give those
' customers who are responsible ‘and
honest the privilege of a charge ac-
count and the chances are that some
sort of a credit system, properly safe-
guarded, will always continue to be a
feature of legitimate trade. 5
Ask Catalogue House for Credit.
You who have a reputation in your
community for being at least fairly re-
sponsible and upright know that when
you desire it or need it you can obtain
credit from at least some of the mer-
chants in your town. But some time
when you are in need of some article
of merchandise and are a little short
of ready money, order what you want
from a mail order house in Chicago or
some other city and ask them to please
charge it till the first of the month.
MAIL ORDER HOUSE
The Key to Better Business
LIFE IS A GIVE AND TAKE PROPOSITION
The experiment will be Interesting, at
least, and the answer that you receive
may cause you to give a little thought
to the difference between trading with
the ‘mail order house in some far-off
city and buying from the merchants in
your own home town.
Some mail order concerns are now
operating a so-called credit system, but
it is not a credit system such as is
maintained by most retail merchants.
These mail order houses will sell cer-
tain merchandise on the installment
plan, but they not only demand an
initial cash payment, but require the
purchaser to sign a contract which
operates as a mortgage not only on the
merchandise purchased, but upon any
other property that the customer may
possess. There is nothing in this
system that bears any similarity to the
open credit system that is used by
the majority of retail merchants.
There are some other requests youn
might make of the mail order man
when the occasion arises and the re-
sponses might be equally interesting.
For instance, you, Mrs. Farmer, who
bought that box of groceries from the
catalogue house last month, might
write the manager and ask him to buy
your butter and eggs. Of course, it
would be considerable more trouble to
pack them for shipment to the city
than it is to take them in to your lo-
cal grocer, who is always ready to
pay you the market price for thom, but
then maybe the mail order man would
pay you enough more than the markef
price to pay you for the extra trouble.
And then again, maybe he wouldn't.
And, then, there is that mowing
machine that you, Mr. Farmer, have
been figuring on trading in for a new
machine. Suppose you write to the
mail order man from whom you bought
that wire fencing and ask him what
he will allow you for your old machine
on a trade for a new one. Of course,
the local hardware dealer in the town
where you find a market for your farm
products will allow you a fair price
for your old machine, but what's the
use of asking him to do it. The mail
‘order man surely will be glad to do
that much for you, will he not? Yes,
he will not.
. List Is Endless,
There are a good many things the
mail order man will not do for you.
The list would be too long to crowd
into one issue of a newspaper. He
will not give you credit, however
much you may need it. He will not
buy the farmer's produce. He will not
pay a dollar of taxes to help support
your schools or build your roads. He
will not contribute a cent to the sup-
port of your churches or your charita-
ble institutions. He will not lend you
a helping hand in time of trouble.
The local merchants in a community
will do everything for the people in
that community that the mail order
man will not do for them. This fact
should make it easy for the people of
the community to decide which it is
to their interest to do business with.

An abundance of water is re-:
quired to wash away the dirt and
germs which accumulate in the’
day’s work, |
A general bath should be taken:
at least twice a week. But in’
these days most people could not
think of letting a day ‘pass with_
out a bath. A brisk rub will stim- |
ulate the circulation of the blood,
and a bad’ complexion will show
amazing improvements with outside
cleanliness. |
That is not all, for cleanliness |
within is also essential. You cannot
have a beautiful complexion if your
system is clogged with waste ma-
terials from undigested fdod, or
poisoned by the evil effects of con-
stipation. You should drink plenty
of water, not too much at mealtime
but before or after eating. This
will help to cleanse the system.
There are germs in the air and
germs in the dirt with which we
are in constant contact. Of course,
it is the skin that suffers first.
The skin is one of the most im-
portant organs of elimination of the

ly cast off, carrying with them the
waste substances of the: body, as well
as the dirt’ and germ accumulation, *
