"Y sapposo yaaVi considerably reduced your sales foeee?"
"On the esntrary, we hare wast pot two more mm on, and are goin to

ta bcaaeh out if your business is poor."
we have to dig for busiueee, there's only one thing
to do—pat asere diggers on the pob. What Would you do—fire your sales-
ea and wait for the trade to bring orders to you? Nothing to it; we
have to go eat aad gat <ai"
If yai agree with that, you cannot logically dodge the proposition that

THE OLDEST INHABITANT
It might be Worth while if those persons who are always looking for
the "old** man or woman living" were to give a little thought as to what
it means when they find such an individual.
Merely aa an obpect of interest the oldest inhabitant desertes no more
comment than the tallest atan, the stingiest woman or the most mischevious
boy. Theee are traite or characteristics which bring little credit to the
prussesnr or to the hwibhiiiKp
It is fullnsss of life that is desirable; not mere length. Fortunate indeed
is he mlmee years cover a long span of Hfe; but more fortunate still is he
who can make those years count for something in service to his felkwmen.
We do not begrudge the oldest inhabitant the years he has accumulated.
Bat tha individuals who ssek to enlist our interest m him could more
easily gat it, if we could feel that they were not unmindful of the Words of {
the poet; We Uveindee ds, not years, in thoughts, not braths; In feelings,
not m figures on a dial"

SITTING ON THE VALVE
You hear very frequently that man is "just a machine," a sort of engine
that hasps going when the fuel, which is food, is given him. But a
man is more thnn an engine; he thinks for himself, which an engine does
not. And whereas more work may be had from an engine by forcing, by
sitting on the safety valve, it is not at all true in every instance that
ma respond to forcing, to compulsion. Often they break loose when there

USEFUL
Man and women who sow the seed of constant useful activity reap the
harvest of success from a soil fertilised by their cWn steady purpose. It
would ba as foolish to expect success without active exertion as to gather
a crop before you plant the seed. But in cultivating that character which
reaps true achievement you many sow in all seasons and gather the fruits
with the serene assurance that even wind and weather—Storm and stress—
' «ra n part of the process of nersoual growth.
Optindsm is an ally of «(fort aad auccess. It is the hsisml of the mat,
suit the shell. It is the fine trait of tha man, not the faults. It is
the fltfwar on the hillside, not the dead leaf under the snow. It is
the opportunity in any job, not the grind. It is up to the individual
whether his world will be golden or drab. Optimism, in a word, is
the eye of the soul. It is the color in the vision revealing the fine beyond
the coarse, the best beyond the Worst.

It takes all sorts of people to start a war, but especially jingoes.
"Go Slow" should be heeded by all except the pedestrian crossing the street.
After all, the happiest person in the world is anyone who thinks so.
Easter and Christanity
Easter is one of the milepoets in
the life of all Christian people.
It is a big event in the lives of
sll those Who profess to be follower
of Jesus Christ, rsgardlsaa of the
demonstration thru whieh their spiri-
tuality finds expression. ladsed, Whe-
ther affiliated with any denomina -
tion, all people ia America should

who celebrate the historical resurrec-
tion of ths Man of Nasarsth.
At times we hear vetoes in . this

tian religion by a certain class a /au-

Altho the people of India are with-

Inez S. Wilosn, home economics direc-
tor of the Notional Live Stock snd
Meat Board, the fualt lies with the
parent , not with the children.
The mother's task is to plan and
prepare proper meato for her off-
spring, the Board's food specialist
continuos. They should be ape tiling
and attractive and above all they
should have variety enough to make
them interesting. We should go on a
hunger strike, too, if the same cereal
greeted us every morning and if
maahed potatoes and grave? were
the piece de resistance for every din-
ner. It may take inugisttMs to
prepare the right kind of ||od in a
way that will appeal to the MiiM's sV
petite and it is every mother' job
to exercise her imsginstion to that
extent.
Then, whin she has placed the plate

should be foiyotton about. The elder
members of the group should devote
themselves to their food sad their

thst he is well, will do likewise. Even
the teaching of table manners, in
the case of the child who will not est,
should be put aside until the child
has learned to take his food for
granted.
The child why is well and who does
not e^| usually behaves in this fash-
ion because it is uch a splendid way
to hold the center of the stage. If
he sefs thst it is s matter of com-
plete indifference to his parents whe-
ther he eats or whether he leaves the
table hungry, he will soon realise that
mealtime ia the time to appease hia
hunger and he won't leave the table
hungry very many times.

You have a heart of steel, said Clemenceati
when he saw Mr. Wilson splitting up em-
pires with a lead pencil that had existed
ever since Xenephon wrote the Anabasis.
So have manufacturers who force widows
and orphans to make Shirts for retailers to
sell at .98 cents and Work shirts at .48 but
these manufacturers must have orders for
their products even at prices that hurt.
Only recently a hotel telegraphed a fac-
tory: "Your drummer found dead—wire
disposition of body," the reply came back
"First search his remains for orders."
It takes a keen judge of values and quick
action for a buyer to secure merchandise
that can be sold at bargain prices like
Ladies fine Dresses at 2.98. Now aint
that a shock These Dresses are truhr
every inch a bargain. The black Front
Store is full of bargains and you will rea-
lize how true it is if you come and look.
Why, just think of it—Ladies Belts at .15
cents. Rayons for .25 cents that are sell-
ing in big-cities for .50 cents. Shoes for
Ladies who work out of doors—as soft as
air 2.50. Men's Trousers at 3.50
See the Shoes for men, then for Ladies and
then for Children and also Babies.
