[Copyrighted. 1014, by Thomas J. Sullivan.]
It is not victory that makes the Joy
of noble beans, but the combat The
I greater the obstacle the more glory In
overcoming It, and difficulties are but
the maids of honor to set off the virtue,
j The effects of competition are won
derful. There tire men who rise re
i freshed on hearing of a threat—men to
: whom a crisis which Intimidates and
paralyzes the majority comes graceful
and beloved as a bride. Competition
inflames the enthusiast and drives him
on to action
The Making of Men.
It is not ease, but effort; not facility,
but difficulty, that makes men. - There
is perhaps no station In life In which
difficulties have not been encountered
and overcome before nny decided
measure of success was achieved.
Recognizing the ' retail catalogue
house as a worthy foe, a competitor,
the local retail uiercbunt. In preparing
for battle must take an Inventory of
his ninny advantages over the mall or
der house.
First and foremost, lie Is always
working among friends and acquaint
ances The uiail order bouse must al
ways work as a stranger.
Dla ->•!« e^ur suggest to him be
fore that perhaps he neglected &- nvpr
looked many things Important to busi
ness success?
An Iowa Cure For Bad Habit.
I am not an adept at suggestions, so
yyiiI refrain from making any, but will
tell of a plan that worked out success
fully in an Iowa town.
The merchants of that town were be
ing Imposed upon by mail order buyers
and organized for their own protection
and determined to cancel nil favors
and credit heretofore extended to those
offending citizens.
I It developed that the first applicant
was a lady who had recently purchased
a sewing machine from a catalogue
house. Her daughter was about to be
married, and she wished to present her
with a parlor set as a present and, find
ing her husband short of ready money,
asked credit from the local dealer.
The Dealer Politely Declined.
The dealer politely declined, advising
that no doubt the mail order house of
Chicago from which she purchased her
sewing machine would be most happy
to extend to her the desired credit
The good lady, somewhat perturbed,
hurried over to the other furniture
dealer. Here she met with the same
suggestion. "1 am sure the mall order
house will grant you all the time you
ask." said the merchant
The lady knew different though, for
she had read the catalogue and remem
bered it said "Cash in advance."
Mail Order House Doesn't Buy Eggs.
When Mrs Farmer, who had offend
ed. came to town with butter and eggs
the grocer said: "Really, Mrs. Farmer,
the butter Is tine, and the eggs are
fresh, but 1 am not needing any today.
I would suggest, though, that you send
them to a Chicago mail order house.
It will doubtless be delighted to receive
them in exchange for another box of
groceries such as you purchased from
it last week."
Mrs. Farmer straightened herself up,
gave the merchant a look which meant
that there were more groceries in town
and started out to find them.
She did. and they gave her the same
advice she received at the first place.
The i urn adoui u<nmo.
i Farmer Independent drove a load
of corn to town and was offered about
5 cents less than the market price, tie
protested. The grain man suggested
that may tie the mall order house of
Chicago would be glad to have the
corn at the market price.
The Implement man referred the man
with the secondhand machine to a
Chicago catalogue bouse, remarking
sarcastically tbat It made a specialty
of taking old goods in trade.
The dry goods and clothing men
quoted their stiffest prices and refused
credit, and the hardware man sent
home empty handed the small son of a
catalogue house patron who bad asked
for some tools and nails.
An Outcome Pleasing to AM.
The merchants all stood firm. Credit
nnd favors were withheld from all mall
. order house patrons.
, The victims first became Indignant
but In the course of time came to se€
the injustice they were doing theli
home merchants and home town, and
soon they began to apologize and ac
knowledge their error and promised In
the future to confine their purchases
. j to their home Institution?.
"Competition Was Helpful."
Today the catalogue bonses have nc
} following In that community.
Tbat Is a modern esample when
"competition was helpful."

forwarding agents that the Interrup

Holluud of the hundreds of thous
ands of bulbs for the exposition
gardens. -Orders for the bulbs in
great quantities were placed with
Dutch nurserymen by the lanscape

the tulips, iris, and other flowers
included in the order will form an
essential part of the landscape de
coration considerable apprehen

that Holland growers would be un
able to export the bulbs. The ship
ment will be the largest of the kind
ever received in this country.
The traffic department of the ex

that a groat quantity of English

FAIR EXCHANGE
A New Back for an Old One. How
it Call i<: in .Alaska,
The back aches at times with a
dull, iudescribahlo feeling-, making
you weary and restless; piercing
pains shoot acrCss the region of the ,
kidneys, and again tho loins are so |
lame that to Btoop is agony. No use
to rub or apply a plaster to the
back if the kidneys are weak. You
cannot reach tho cause. Alasican
residents would do well to profit
by tho following example.
John I. Conger, prop, printing
shop, S45 N. Seventeenth St., Salem,
Oregon, says: "My back got weak
and sore and my kidneys did not
act as they should. At times I
could hardly straighten. Doan's
Kidney Pills gave mo relief and it
took them only a short time to
ri«* me of kidney trouble. I public
ly cudor^ed them several years ago
a- d am glad to do so again."
Priec 50 c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—go

Mr. Conger had. Foster-Milburn Co.,
