One of them had a line oi drapery and diess goods, it was explained to her. thai, the housewue made it a rule never to buy from anyone not connected with local stoics because her husband was in business in La Grande and it wasn't fair to the community to buy any ouier way. The peddler was peeved immediately.' &he said she pat ronized the husband's business and therefore deseived to be patronized in return, etc., etc. Uhe second peddler had a line of dresses. She tiu uen the same giccung and told that it would be a Wuo,e of time to show her goods, bhe was quick to understand the housewife s aUnuuu. due said she appreciated that position and wouid do the sumu under similar circumstances, adding that. she usually found that peopie ccmitetwtf '.nrtMnis fcurW-viaMetjr Wiwafta9 refused to buy outside ol local stoics.

Is 102 miles per hour the limit?" Will you permit me through your valuable paper to answer the Journal's question? There is no limit. The speed of an airplane U the result of ap plied knowledge. And because there Is no limit to the acquisition of knowledge there can be no limit to the speed of an airplane. Five mile a minute is a long way from 1200 miles a minute, and our earth is not the fastest thing; in the uni verse. Just now we are proud of the ability to fly from New York to &n Francisco in daylight..
