1.5AIL-ORDER EVILS
AN OCTOPUS THAT CONTINUES
TO GROW IN SIZE.
IS RUINING COUNTRY TOWNS
Systems That Sap the Vitality of Agri
cultural Districts and Concen
trate Wealth in the Larger
Cities.
To accomplish anything of a public
nature there must be organization.
Every villa;.e should have an associa
tion dew ■■(! to 'poii< • of home pro
tection and village be : tnent—an as
sociation for the molding of a public
sentiment that will carry into practice
the theory that "Business, like charity,
begins at lion: "
it is a recognized fact that the re
tail business of the country villages
and the large towns, for that matter,
is being destroyed. Year by year the
once prosperous merchants are being
forced to the wall—driven out by the
mail order business. And this is ta
king place in face of the fact that the
population and purchasing power of
the country districts is ever on the
increase.
Tin* mail order houses are drawing
the cash retail trade from its natural
chann Is to the cities. The growth
of this octopus has been phenomenal.
From a : lly-’.i • hie i without form
-—an experiment 15 years, ago, it has
grown to proportions that threaten
■the extermination of the retail coun
try merchant. An idt a of the way
lie money of the people is being
drawn into this mail order trade can
r» had from the reports of some of
these houses.
A certain mail order house which
began with a few thousand dollars 15
years ago now does a monthly busi
ness of $5,000,000, with a yearly net
profit of more than $3,000,000.
This is the record of but one In
stitution. There are dozens of them
in various cities of the United Stales.
They are springing up like mush
rooms every night. All that is neces
sary to start a mail order business is
a place to receive mail and money
enough to get out the first hatch of
printing and for the first advertising
campaign.
Like the patent medicine business,
the mail order business depends on
the gullibility of the general public.
Thousands of people every week send
their hard-earned cash to some mail
order house in payment for goods
that could have tv n bought cheaper
at their home store.
Why do they do it? It is owing par
ttally to the desire of the average per
son to be humbugged and partially
to the effect of persistent advertising.
The mail order house sends out its at
tractive liiera'ure to every family in
the country. In this literature, com
pos'd of well-illustrated catalogues
and ch *a:> magazines known as mail
order papers, the goods are set out
in the most attractive manner. It is
tempting bait, and the fish bite.
All ol these millions of dollars come
out of the legitimate trade of the coun
try merchant, the man who has in
vest! | his capital, built himself a
homo, and been active in building up
the f wn with tlie expectation that ho
would be allowed to do a legitimate
business in a legitimate way. He is
entitled to the trade of his town and
the country adjacent. He pays his
taxes and contributes to the support
of the community. That community
owes him a reciprocal duty—the duty
to g.re him the preference of trade,
everything else being equal.
A WORD TO PHYSICIANS.
Alcohol as a Medical Problem Should
Be Studied.
Dr. Thorold Williams, a London phy
sician of wide experience in dealing
with alcoholism and the physical evils
which are associated with it, has re
cently issued a statement in which he
recommends that physicians every
where devote themselves to the study
of the alcohol question and claims that
it is a subject of paramount impor
tance to the whole medical jrofession.
“Physicians,” he states, “do not yet
know alcohol. It is only one drug
among thousands, and unless they de
vote themselves specially to it they
can never expect to be conve rsant with
the extraordinary effects this drug has
upon various constitutions. Besides,
many of them are themselves in the
habit of using it in moderate quanti
ties and they make out the best case ,
they can for it. Alcohol, if only the ,
general public knew it, is not a stimu- !
lant. it is a narcotic, with some of j
the properties of a stimulant. Thus it
comes about that in the early stages
of drink the subject is elated, happy
talkative—in a word, stimulated into
unnatural vivacity. The same thing
happens with chloroform, which is the
true counterpart of alcohol as a drug.
Following this stage is one of depres
sion, when the subject takes a gloomy
view of life, and is disinclined for con
versation.
“I have devoted the last 16 years of
my life to the study of alcohol and al
coholism. I was brought face to face
with the problem in a curious way.
When a young man I spent many
years in London and was familiar, as
are most townsmen, with the sight of
drunkenness. 1 do not think it mad ■
any special impression on me beyond
the usual aversion. Subsequently, I
went away into Wales, and lived there
’ten years among the country people,
where there was no drink and no
drunkenness. When 1 came hack to j
London to live I was struck by the
appalling ravages of alcohol, which so j
many people suppose to be a food, j
and which is nothing of the sort. I i
picked up at a second-hand book stall
one day a little book entitled ‘Total
Abstinence.’ 1 read that book through
from cover to cover many times that
day. and 1 b -gan then and there to
make a special study of alcohol as a
drug, and I have continued it to the
present day."
HE KNEW SOMETHING.

Customer—Where Is your master

Assistant—Oh, he’s gone to get a

Church and State.
A young curate, who was showing
an American n il through an old Eng- 1
lh-h cathedral, enjoyed her apprecia- !
tion of a ha cue lectern. The i
Bible rested on the outspread wings!
of a powerful wrought bronze eagle, j
At the base of the lecturn, another !
symbol of the Gospel was prest :ted in :
the form of a great lion.
The clergyn :n yielded to the'
temptation to i.-inter the fair visitor
a bit.
“Wo have ;i lion to watch the eagle,”
he remarked.
“Yes, flashed the answer, “but the
eagle stays on top.”—Harper s Mag-I
