How can congress pass an ordinary revenue bill without representative American business men of the Steel Trust to tell It how much to soak the rest of us for their benefit?

The next morning one of the hands came around to look for eggs ind finding, as he thought, a large one he seized on It at once. In his astonishment at finding it so heavy he dropped It. with the result that it exploded with direful effect The man was hurled several yards away, but strangely enough beyond lying stunned for a few minutes he was unhurt "Whew! boys" he murmured, when he recovered his speech "that egg was the stalest I ever ran across!" A Word to Dealers "To procure the kind of mer chandise people want the store keeper must know what people want." Such is an axiom of one of our great merchants, who prac tices what he preaches. One thing that the storekeeper does know is that there will be an initial demand for goods which the manufacturer advertises in the newspapers. He knows that people will want to see these goods and that if they have merit they will find favor more quickly than un advertised wares. The dealer not only stocks with them, but he pushes them at the time the news paper advertising is running. TIIK EXCUSE.
