ferent from what It wns when I was n
young man. At that time wo were
cutting each other's profits down to n
ii 1 - 1 ... neta
But there were virgin fields In those
days that had not been worked. One
tulglit go Into n western town with a
now kind of goods to sell, nud If they
were salable ho would make a good
profit on thorn. I served an appren
ticeship with a lnrgo'soap manufactur
ing concern and after having thorough
ly learned the business concluded to go
to some western stuto and build up n
trade In the goods with which I was
familiar. I settled in a town called
Farnsworth. the center of a country
that was rapidly growing In popula
tion. I had been furnished with sonic
means for advertising aud concluded
to attract nttcntlon by unique notices.
I remember the first one I Issued I
considered very clever. It was, "Every
patriot uses Gunter's soap, especially
on Blrthington's wash day." I was
disappointed to find that the plain, un
educated people of that region did not
see the humor of my ad., for those who
mentioned it to mo asked who Blrth
lngton was. After explaining to most
of the citizens of the town that Blrth
ington's wash day was a transposition
of Washington's birthday I concluded
to try something else.
One morning I noticed that I had n
rival in the soap business in the neigh
boring town of Mlllvllle. Not only had
I a rival in the business, but in clever
advertising. In a Mlllvllle newspaper
I saw that R 15. Ketcham was selling
SouthwicU's soap, advertising it to
"wash out freckles, leaving the skin
n beautiful pink and white." 1 con
sidered this ridiculous till a number
of the freckled boys and girls of the
town came into my store and asked if
I had any of that soap that would "get
away with freckles."
I made my next effort more prac
tical. I advertised Gunter's soap as
the "whitest wash" a housewife could
use. This produced an immediate ef
fect, for several women came Into the
store and bought my soap to use in
whitewashing their cellars.
The next advertisement of Ketch
am's that I noticed was after a storm
and a consequent carrying away of a
portion of the turnpike between Rirns
worth and Mlllvllle by the giving way
of a culvert. Ketcham announced
that the washout had been effected by
a cako of Southwlck's soap having fall
en out of the wagon of a farmer who
had just bought it aud was carrying
It to Farnsworth to wash away the
spots loft by an application of the Gun
ter article.
The public didn't exactly understand
how a culvert could bo washed out
with a cako of soap weighing only a
few ounces, but the reference to spots
loft by my goods was a stroke of
genius on the part of Ketcham. It was
not at that time oven the proper thing
to attack In an advertisement or other
Wise any individual goods. Indeed, 1
had cause for legal action against
Ketcham for damages. So I concluded
to drive over to Mlllvllle and Inform
him that if he did. it again I would
hale him into court I found his of
fice in charge of a young woman, of
whom I inquired when Mr. Ketcham
would bo In. She asked mo what I
wished to sco him for, and I told her
that I was the agent for Gunter's soap
at Farnsworth and would like to have
a conference with him with a view to
settling upon a method by which he
and I could do business without injur
ing eacli other.
Tho young woman said that Mr.
Ketcham was out most of tho tlmo so
liciting orders for his soap and if In
stead of waiting for him, which I
might have to do for some time, I
would say to her anything I had to
communlcato she would transmit it to
Mr. Ketcham.
"Very well." I said; "please call his
attention to tho fact that when ho ad
vertises that Gunter's soap leaves
spots, thus injuring its salo, ho lays
himself Hablo to a suit for damages.
There Is no law against his advertis
ing that Southwlck's soap has pro
duced a washout or that it is a white
wash on tho best soap In tho market
so long as ho doesn't cry down any
other article. Do you understand?"
"I'll tell Mr. Ketcham."
"And say to him that If ho will corao
over to seo mo I shall be happy to lis
with him a scalo of prices by which
wo shall bo governed, so that wo won't
bo cutting each other's throats."
"W-h-a-t?"
"I mean that wo shall not bo under
selling each other, Thcro's plenty of
room for both, but if wo fight oach
other we'll both fall."
"I'll try to inako him understand."
Tho girl, though sho appeared to bo
stupid, was rather pretty. As I waa
about todeavo I concluded to pay her
a compliment, being a llttlo facetious
as well, so I said:
"I wouldn't uso Southwlck's soap on
my faco if I wero you."

"Good morning! Tell Mr. Ketcham'
to como over and sea me." j
But Mr. Ketcham did not como to'
see me. On the contrary, ho continued
tho contest, wlUt u quarter. Uln next
announcement wns that at a trial be
tween Gunter's and Southwlck's soaps
a cako of oath was thrown Into a tub
of water and Southwlck's washed Gun
ter's clean out of the tub. Many peo
ple understood enough of this to sec
VuVi. u.b' turned against mc
Not only did ray sales fall off. but I !
found that a good many cakes of tho
Southwlck nrtlcle were finding their
way Into Farnsworth. It scorned to
mo that I must do something to get the
upper hand In tho struggle or go out
of business. So, after racking my
brain for awhile, 1 got a notice Insert
ed in the newspapers of my town that
there was no uso for our citizens to
seek the seashore during tho summer.
All they need do was to throw a cake
of Gunter's soap Into Green's pond nnd
the latter, breaking on tho shoro, would
bo quite equal to any sea foam.
What was my surprise, after my
caution, to see a few days after this In
sertion a notice in a Mlllvllle paper
that tho agent of Guntcr's soap at
Farnsworth had by mistake got hold of
a cako of Southwlck's soap nnd wash
ed himself out of business.
This was too much, it was n false,
malicious announcement. At any rate,
many matter of fact people would
so construe It I drove over to Mlll
vllle resolved to put a stop to this libel
ous way of competing for trade and
straight to Ketcham's office. I found
tho same girl there as before.
"Where's Ketcham?" I Inquired im
patiently. "What can I do for you? I'm In
charge."
"You can say to him that one more
notice In n newspaper reflecting on mo
or tho article I sell nud I shall nt ouce
begin suit for damages."
"How much will they bo?"
"How much? Why, I shall sue for
for perhaps as much as $20,000."
"That would bo awful. I doubt if
Mr. Ketcham could pay all that"
"I didn't say I would be allowed that
sum by tho court I said I would suo
for that amount."
"Oh! Well, I'll toll him."
I stood looking at tho girl. As I
have said before, sho was stupid look
ing, but pretty. I should have a girl
llko that In ray place of business; It
would enable mo to get out more to
drum up business.
"Do you know," I asked, "of any
young woman who would llko n posi
tion with me at Farnsworth such as
you have here with Mr. Ketcham?"
"What would 'bo tho salary?"
"I could make it $12 a week."
She sat thinking awhile, then asked:
"How would you llko to take over Mr.
Ketcham's stock and run your and his
business together? I think he'd like
to soil."
"For how much?"
"He might turn over tho stock that
he holds as agent and sell tho good
will of the business for. say, $2,000."
Two thousand dollars was a good
deal, but he had worked up quite a
trade, and if I should buy him out I
would have the field to myself. I said
I would think It over. I went back to
Farnsworth and considered tho matter
exhaustively. Somehow I had taken a
fancy to Ketcham's clerk and believed
that she would bo a great advantnge
to me. Whenever I had gone to Mlll
vlllo I had found Ketcham out work
ing up trade, while I spent most of my
tlmo in my shop. Finally I wrote
Ketcham that I would give him $2,000
for tho good will of his business nnd
tako his clerk nt a salary of $12 a
week. By return mall I got papers
assigning mo his business and n tele
gram from his principals appointing
me their agent in his place. I sent a
check to his order for tho purchase
money and asked him to ship hl3 stock
nnd send his clerk to me.
The stock arrived in duo time, then
the girl.
"Well, Miss" I began and waited
for her to fill in her name.
"Ketcham."
"Aro you a sister of Mr. Ketcham's?"
"No."
"Any relation?"
"No."
"What are your initials?"
"F. B."
"The dickens!"
Her hitherto sober faco broke Into n
smile.
"I suppose I may as well confess
now ns at any tlmo. I've been running
tho business over thero and at a loss.
There's room for only one, and that one
can't stay indoors and keep shop. Ho
or she must bo out canvassing all thu
while. Since your first visit I have
been ulmlug to sell to you. You can
now be .out all tho while, and I will
run tho business inside. I would rath
or have $12 a week than bo running
behind."
"And you'vo been smart enough to
get $2,000 out of mo for a losing busi
ness?" "Oh, you mustn't look at it in that
way. I've sold you tho field."
"And your ability as an advertise
ment writer."
"I'll do what I can for yon in that
line."
And sho did. I decided to concen
trate on Gunter's soap, and so ingen
ious wero Miss Ketcham's ads. that by
constant canvassing I did remarkably
welL My assistant kept on developing
in her ability to vrrito original adver
tisements, and they camo to bo looked
for as funny matter. This didn't do
tho sales of soap any harm. Indoed, it
quadrupled tho valuo of tho ads. Fi
nally, discovering that to part with
my ad. writer -would bo to giro up tho
greater part of my business, I married
her. At tho tlmo of tho -wedding some

TAFT WOULD
AID FARMERS.
Wants United States to Adopt
Co-opeiativo Credit System.
RESULT OF INVESTIGATION.
State Department, at the President's
Direction, Has Looked Into the Sys
tem In Vogue In Europe It Would
Moan Low Rates and Easy Term
For Repayment.
The state department's investiga
tion of Kuropean systems of co-operative
credit has now reached tho second
stage In which n study Is made of tho
mortgage bond societies and the mort
gage banks. It is expected that this
Is the form of co-operative credit
which, under one plan or another, will
be proposed for adoption In the United
States In connection with President
Tuft's efforts to extend this assistance
to the American farmer.
As compared to tho present Ameri
can system of farm lnnd loans this
form of co-operative credit would ac
complish two things for tho farmer:
First It would penult him to repay
his loan through an easy system of
amortization extending over a long pe
riod of years and would removo effec
tively tho menace of foreclosure or
renewal which hnngs llko the sword
of Damocles over the head of any bor
rower from a private individual undet
a short time mortgage.
Second. It would unlock tho door
of tho great money centers to thu
farmer of tho remotest regions and
give a security to the Investor in New
York, so that ho would need have no
concern with knowing anything of tha
sort of security offered by tho farm lu
Texas or Oregon on which tho money
ho lends Is to be spent.
This menus to the farmer low rates
of Interest and easy terms for repay
ment What It would mean In more
specific terms to tho American farm
er can bo easily seen In a comparison
of conditions in Germany or France
and in tho United States, nerc Is tho
statement of a dealer In land mort
gages in our southwest, made at a
mooting in New York city. Tho
speaker was describing the business
of a company financed by British cap
ital which makes mortgage loans on
farms In tho southwestern states:
"Wo have been loaning money at S,
0 and 10 per cent. I loaned money In
tho Pnnhandlo twenty-seven years ago
and for tho first threo or four years
never got loss than 3 per cent a month.
That is incident to a now country.
Now our bank rate Is 10 per cent. Our
land loans that wo havo been making
tho first year or so through that sec
tion of the country have been made
on an 8 or 0 per cent basis. However,
1 am very frank to say that I think
tho rates ought to como down and
that wo ought to be ablo to get money
from that section of tho country nt
0 or 7 per cent"
In comparison with this statement the
Credit Fonder of Franco Is able to
loan money on farm lands at -1.3 per
cent and tho German societies and
banks at about -i or 4.5 per cent. As
tho speaker quoted abovo says, the
high rato of Interest In this country is
probably to n largo extent duo to tho
fact that It Is a now country nnd that
money here Is more actively employed.
It Is doubtful whether, even with the
adoption of tho European machinery,
tho interest rates on mortgages could
bo brought down as low In tho United
States as they are In either France or
Germany. It Is the opinion of no loss
nn authority than Charles A. Conant,
however, that they could be brought
down to 5 per cent A mortgage at
5 per cent with tho advnntago to tho
farmer of repaying his loan llttlo by
llttlo through an unburdensomo plan
of amortization might bo accepted as
tho sum total of benefit to bo expected
by the American farmer from tho
ndoptlon of some such system ns. for
instance, the German mortgage bank
plan.
Another African Theodore.
An African Theodore came to grief
just forty-five years ago because ho
thought ho was tho wholo show. The
rest of mankind thought they were
somo show, too, and Theodoro of Abys
sinia learned too lato that ho had made
a very serious mistake in not taking
that very nntural attitudo into account.
Nature has not given to any individual
a monopoly of tho abilities requisite in
tho rule of a people.

Mow to Grow Tall.
A man's organs nnd thoo of his bones
which nro not subjected to pressure
grow continuously until he li forty
years old that Is to say, tho heart
should become stronger, the capacity
of the lungs Increase nnd the brain
should develop steadily until the fourth
decade of life. Also one should wear a
larger hat at tho age of forty than at
thirty. A man ceases to grow tall, how
over, at the beginning of the third dec
ade, because after that time the down
ward pressure exerted by the weight of
tho body while in the erect position
.empresses tho vertebrae or smnll
lioncs In the spine, the disks of carti
lage between them, the pelvis nnd tho
thigh bones, and this pressure over
comes the nntural elasticity of tho
disks and tho growth of these bones.
However, a British scientist contends;
that were man a quadruped nnd there
fore freed from the downward pres
sure produced by his weight upon his
spinal column he would continue to
grow in height for ten years longer
than ho does at present, since It has
been found that bones not subjected to
compression Increase up to the fourth
decade. Chicago Tribune.

ous titles of old English books:

"The Spiritual Mustard Pot to Make
the Soul Sneeze With Devotion."
Most of these wero published in tho
time of Cromwell.
The Wearing of Hats.
More or less of a modern habit is the
constant wearing of hats. Even as Into
as 1759 Horace Walpolo mentions ns a
matter of course that he never wears a
hat "Uemeniber," he says, writing to
a friend notoriously careless about his
dress, who was expected home from
Holland, "everybody that comes from
abroad is supposed to come from
France, nnd whatever they wear at
their first reappearance Immediately
grows the fashion. Now If, as Is very
likely, you should through inadver
tence change hats with tho master of a
Dutch smack in a week's time we shall
all bo equipped like Dutch skippers.
Y'ou seo, I speak very disinterestedly,
for, as I never wear n hat myself, It Is
indifferent to me what sort of a hat I
don't wear."
A Grand Scheme.
Mr. Biggins had a scheme for pro
tecting his house against burglars dur
ing his absence from homo, but in
spite of that his friend Mr. HIggins
met him recently looking very down
cast. "What's wrong?" queried Mr. HIg
gins. "Oh, everything!" groaned Mr. Big
gins. "You remember my scheme for
keeping off burglars? Well, the secret
of It was to leave n gas jet turned on,
so that any burglar who entered would ,
bo asphyxiated by Uie fumes." i
"Didn't it work, then?"
"Oh, yes, It worked well enough too
well. The burglar camo In with a '
lighted match, and we haven't been
nblo to find him or tho house slnco."
The Privilege of Peers.
Thero is a curious case in Fortes
cue's "reports" relating to tho privilege
of peers, in which tho bailiff who ninny
years ago arrested a lord was forced
by Uio court to kneel down nnd ask
his pardon, though ho alleged that he
had acted by mistake, for that his
lordship had a dirty shirt, a wornout
suit of clothes nud only sixpence In
his pocket, so that ho could not be
lieve that he was a peer and arrested
him through Inadvertence. Green. Bag.
He Changed.
"Greymalr's wife brought him homo
a suit of clothes, but I understand ho
mustered up tho courage to tell her
that ho had made up his mind to
change it."
"Did ho change it?"
"Oh, yes; he changed his mind."
Hit It.
"You can't guess what sister said
about you Just boforo you camo In, Mr.

"I haven't an Idea lu the world, John

TAFT GOOD TIMES.
A Good Deal More Substantial Than
Vilson Promise.
There was an old song, n fnvorlto in
tho days gone by, with the refrain,
"Hard times como ngaln no morel"
Wero It not for the dnrk cloud of
Democratic free trade hovering nbovo
tho horizon and tho possibility of Wil
son for presldont with n cabinet of
mossbneks from Uio south, with their
heels on tho cabinet table and telling
each other how much better tilings
were "before tho wall," Americans
might be singing that refrain with
zest nnd gleo today, for from all
parts of the Union comes assurance
of better times than for years past,
of pressing demands for goods of all
kinds, abundant employment nnd ac
tive nnd profitable trade. The large
cities are thronged with buyers, and
thero Is plenty of evidence that store

How different four years ago! The
country was still lu the doldrums not
yet emerged from the Itoosevelt panic
of 10O7. Tho nation was looking for
ward with hope and faith to tho elec
tion of President Tnft then already
recognized ns one of tho world's great
est statesmen, safe. sane, broad minded,
with nn Intellectual grasp equal to tho
mighty task !oforo him nnd nn unsel
fish devotion to tho welfare of all his
fellow citizens.
Tho nation's faith nnd hopo In
President Taft were not misplaced.
Gradually and surely the country has
come out of distrust nnd despair into
tho realization nnd enjoyment of over
growing prosperity. Business has re
covered confidence, labor finds profit
able employment, nnd In somo parts
tho demand for labor nt good wages Is
greater than tho supply.
President Taft has made good. Hard
times have gone, never to return pro
vided Taft is re-elected and allowed
to give tho country four years more of
sanity, safety and security. The
frantic efforts of his predecessor to
get n chanco to givo tho country
another taste of 1007 excite no alarm
tho American memory is not short
enough for that But another gener
ation has grown to manhood and tho
ballot slnco tho last calamitous ex
perience of Democratic low tariff in
1S91-7, and specious and Illusive free
trade arguments are appealing to ears
that never heard them before.
There is every reason to believe,
however, that tho sunshine of Taft's
prosperity will clear tho beclouded sky,
dissipate tho mist of Wilson free trade,
and enablo tho younger voters to per
ceive, as their elders know by ex
perience, the folly of exchanging good
times for conditions that In the past
have brought ouly business collapse
and general hardship and depression
for everybody nnd loss of opportunity.
