EDIT.OR TIMES: Recently I spent the afternoon with a friend and among other things she said, In a mltigant tone while dextrously ply ing her needle to an elaborate piece of drawn work which when finished would adorn the bird's eye maple dressing table In her adorable daugh ter's bedroom: "Well, I have managed so far to keep Maudle from doing any house work to speak of. I wanted her girl hood days to be unfettered by the drudgery of housework. There will be plenty of time to learn to keep house In the years to come when she may have a home of her own to look after." This "penny wise and pound fool ish" mother does not begin to real ize what harm she is doing to her dauglrcr by keeping her ignorant of the tasks In a sphere intended for the gentler &ex by the Almighty since the beginning of time.

STORE AN OFFICE FIXTURES etoro or In any other part of the country, but I have the same Inter est In tho success of local mercantile enterprise, that I believe every con sistent citizen feels, and it can hard ly bo said to bo an evidence of good citizenship, to attempt to raise one's self to preeminence in tho commun " Ity, through disparagement of. one's neighbors, nor is it the key to public confidence, to apply such epithets as "unscrupulous Individual" to one's competitors In trade, nor necessary to Insult tho buying public, by parad ing him as a "victim" because Ho does not trade In some certain store. Tho tale of the Jew (recounted in tho "Answer") is in no sense apropos. The store is the creature of the pro ducer, the farmer tho original pro ducer, henco most concerned at any disturbance of tho distributing faclll. ties for his products. And Inasmuch as, were It not for the producer, there would be no store, in that sense the storo is CONTROLLED ,if not actually OWNED, by the farmer. This In the broad economic sense, is tho universal condition. But tho ill llavor ; of this "Answer," does remind one of ' a certain fable of the Immortal Aesop, I concerning a Jealous nnd nrbitrn-y animal of iho genus Cams, ami a liun-1 gry horse. Tho future of our com munity is in tho hands of her citi zens no less than the present, for the work of to-day will produce the fruits of the morrow. Tho way to success In that future, will of course bo strewn with somo obstacles, but spurred on to achievement by an abiding faith in the latent resource, consummation will surely follow, if wo aro energetic In development, re- extravagance will rapidly diminish the funds set aside to replenish the larder. After at least a year of ag gravating, exasperations, during which time her husband's devotion will wane and his love almost depart, "catalogue house" tradingishe may finally become anvordinary ,Co". ?x matters to mutual advantage, as has been proved wherever'glven a trial. Wo want every orderly conducted mercantile establishment on the Bay to succeed, and I don't believe that there is any volume of outside buy ing or done by local farmers. As a produc er, looking to tho local trade patron Age, I dont believe that the farmer is as lacking in rudimentary intelli gence, as the "Answer" would have us believe. But the very best way to start such a movement among buy- Daily Heal Estate Reports FuniNIied Iy Title Cluai.uitee anil Abstract Co., Henry ScngstncUui. July 10th, 11)10. S. W. Harmon to M. L. Hunt.
