a man whom he had invited to dinner. Throughout theie
the man was gloomy, carping; upon tne wnoie
wnrlrl in irpnprnl. After his departure Mr. .Kaufman
caught up' a pen that scratched, dipped it in vitriol, stuck
his tongue in his cheek and under the caption, "To the Pes
simist " wrote;
You are the most utterly useless of all humans. The
snace which vou occupv upon the surface of the earth
is a wasted spot. Without the ability to create, you aim
to kill the spirit of creation; without the skill to produce,
you seek to check the advance of progress.
You are a poison oak in the forest a creeper without
the strength to climb on your own stem. You not only are
fruitless, but one degree worse than sterile you absorb
"vitality to no purpose and hurt everything with which you 1
come in contact.
Despite the evidence of all the ages, you still refuse
to recognize that nothing can be achieved without trial .
that nothing can be accomplished unless it ds attempted
with courage and enthusiasm and still you make of your- J
self a check-rein wherever there is call for a spur you per- f
sist in kicking with discouragement every striver who !
needs the helping hand of confidence.

Just as Natural for Us to Lead
In Variety and Value as it is
For Others to Follow
Right now we are showing the swellest line of odd
pieces in fancy china ever shown in Medford, includ
ing nearly 100 styles and patterns in cups and saucers.
Many of them no two alike. Don't buy something
everybody has. Get something different. You can
find it here, when nowhere else.
The more the hygienic value of pure foods is
understood the greater one's grocery business
grows. People realize that there is one store in
town where a small cut in prices does not mean a
larger one in quality, and they naturally flock to
that store.
THIS STORE
For always the bargain list is particularly bril
liant. There is money to bo saved, as you will
easily see, when you call and get our prices.
