In business. They are bride and trroom

The bride is the daughter of Mr.

If you want to visit a man in bis

ence in your reception whether you
walk in or sit down with him bv his in

open cellar window and Intrude upon
him when he doesn't want to see vou
A few business men still cling to tbe
cellar window method, Bays the Phila
delphia Record. They try to get into
tbe homes through circulars and .Imi
tation newspapers surreptitiously slip
ped under tbe door, or through form
letters In plain envelopes, designed to
resemb'e personal letters thrust In by
the postman.
The better way is to enter the homes
through a reliable and readable news
paper.. , A favorable welcome to a bus

work of selling. The Star's standing

Inquiry, has advised the superintendent
of Montgomery county, that he finds no
authority in the law for the payment of

schools during Institute week, and if
auditors should object to such payment
directors would be personally responsi
ble for the amount thug paid without
due order of law. Heretofore it has
been held that visiting sohools was
equivalent to attending the institute.

Ask For Better
V Trolley Service
Citizens of Sykesville Want
More For. Their Money ..
Than they Get.
No Issue of Importance to the com'
munlty contiguous to Sykesville In re'
cent years has awakened such universal
comment and commendation as the
Post-Dispatch's demand for a trolley
service commensurate with the trafllo
and rates of fare charged.
Since our last Issue we have been
asked by dozens to keep up the agita
tion for better service and the subject
has been one of general discussion.
It Is Bn undenlaole fact that the
people along the trolley lines want bet-
tr service, deserve It and are going to
get It before long If possible. In this
case the people are asking nothing un
reasonable of the companies but are
simply asking a service In keeping with
the high rate of fare charged and with
the companies' franchises as purveyors
of transportation suitable and conven
lent to the demands of tbe publlo.
We do not know of a trolley company
anywhere which charges more for fares
for tbe distance covered than the local
companies, nor of any Which give such
limited service. Besides this tbe local
lines are very largely patronized and
are unquestionable large money makers.
Therefore there seems to be no reason
whatever for denying the people's de
mands for a service which will meet
their desires'and needs.
And this demand should not be con
fined to those living out along tbe lines,
but the people of DuBois and Reynolds'
vllle,, especially the business people and
newspapers, should join in Insisting
that the proper transportation facilities
be afforded tbe many from the outlying
districts who trade and visit in those
towns.
With proper co-operation all along
tbe line we think that the desired and
needed change can be effected. Sykes-
yllle Post-Dispatch.
The Helpless Girl.
Tbe poorest girls In the world are
those not taught to work. There are
thousands of them. Parents have
petted them, and tbey have been
taught to despise labor and depend
upon others for a living, and are
perfectly helpless. The most forlorn
women belong to this class. It is the
duty of parents to protect their daugh
ten from this deplorable oondltion.
Tbey do them a great wrong if they
neglect to do It. Every daughter
should be taught to earn her own
living. The rich as well as the poor
require this training. The wheel of
fortune rolls swiftly around; the rich
are likely to become poor, and the poor
rich. 3kill ; added to labor Is no
disadvantage to the rich, and Is in
dispensable to the poor. Well-to-do
parents must educate their daughters
to work. No reform is more impera
tive than this. ''

ettes. Why not enforce It? A person
who gives a cigarette or cigarette paper
to a person under twenty-one years is
breaking the law and is liable for a
heavy fine.' Here Is the law:'
-"Be it enacted, &o., that if any per
son or persons shall furnish cigarettes
or cigarette paper, by gift, tak or otlier-
wise, to any person or persons under
the age of twenty-one years, he or she.
so offending, shall be guilty of a mis
demernor, and,, upon conviction there
of, shall be sentenced to pay a fine of
not more than three hundred dollars.
and not less than one hundred dollars."
The law is certainly strict enough if
it Is put in operation.

The Gullible Public. ,
The average man -or woman has , a
wonderful appetite for the marvelous
when it comes to believing Impossible
things concerning the ability of physi
cians to cure disease. The best physi
cians and the greatest'-specialists', be
cause they do not resort to the methods
of the charlatan and make extravagant
assertions concerning their knowledge
and skill, and are honest with their
patients, are passed by unheeded by the
hordes who flock to see the humbugs
and pretenders. A physician who could
really cure one of the many diseases
that tbe quack pretends to cure, might
locate in a cavern on a lonely mountain
and have all the business he could at
tend to. People would flock to him
from far and near. He would not be
obliged to travel about In search of
patients. As a rule the itinerant phy
sician has a smooth way of imposing
Upon the credulity of the people. He
tells them their "symptoms", with a
gllbness of tongue, that fills them with
admiration and awe. He is a skilled
"hot air" artist, but beyond that his
knowledge of physics is extremely lim
ited. Occasionally these Cagllostros of the
medical profession have the luck to
give medicine to a person who only Im
agines he is sick, or who is on tbe verge
of recovery through former treatment,
and be gets a reputation on that. It
would be easy to secure a bushel ol tes
timonials (from people who actually be
lieve themselves to have been greatly
benefitted), testifying to toe wonderful
medicinal virtues of bread pills!
Your home physician is a graduate of
a first-class medical college and has had
experience In one of the great hospitals
of the country. He reads all the new
treatises on the various diseases and
keeps up with medical discoveries of
the time by a careful perusal of the
medical journals. But because he does
not proclaim himself from the house
tops as a greit physician, you pin your
faith on the well advertised patent
medicine, or pass by his door on your
way to visit the traveling quack.
