The above illustration shows one of the mammoth buildings occupied by the great Mail Order House of the John M. Smyth Company of Chicago. For one4Mrd of a century thia company haa bedn in business. Beginning in a small way, they supplied their neighbors Mf' the near-by towns, each year widening their field. They are now selling merchandise direct to the consumer at wholesale prices throughout the United Btatei. i:1 ’’ j Some years ago they began supplying their customers with an illustrated catalogue. ; ,As the business expanded they were obliged to increase the size of this catalogue, instil to-day it exceeds 1.000 Ohistrated pages, quoting the' lowest wholesale prices on everything to Bat, Wear and Use. , By a superior process of color photography they illustrate many as their goods in natural colors, bringing out the rich color aside of curtains, car* pets, draperies, and the latest designs in wall paper, etc., thus enabling the customer hundreds of miles distant to select goods at his own fireside, knowing by the description, illustration gad price the dass of goods he may,expeet. This feature of their business is becoming more: and more popular each year, for it not only eaves long and tiresome railroad journeys but is a great time saver. It leaves out the'profit of the jobbing house, the retailer, the expensive commerdsl traveler, the general agent, the sub-agent, and thus eliminates from one to four profits, saving thia amount for the consumer. In short, it is a great wholesale store brought to the home. The mammoth catalogue referred to is a 20th century dictionary of economy. The illustration below shows the recent building added to this great enterprise. The success of thia company seems incredible, considering the fact that they have advertised so little. Their spirit of quantity of require in wj from the are pressed Into service at a freight expense which is but little in advance of the iron ore rates. Their references are: Any bank or express company, or any nun, woman or child in Chicago.

Preparations for a Bath.

Billy Dracb, the traveling man, tells of a hotel experience In the Interior of •.Arkansas that is looked upon by his friends with suspicion. He had arrived at a small settlement, and at once repaired to the Eagle House, which was situated on the outskirts of the town an the bank of a small stream. After a dinner of side meat and corn bread Billy lighted a cigar, and the pro* prietor said: "Stranger, Is thar anything we *ttns ktndo foh you all?” < Thinking to confound his host, Drach answered: ‘•Well, yes; come to think of It, Td like to have a hath.", • u The proprietor let bis feet drop from the toiling upon which be had hoisted them, disappeared in the house, and returned in a moment with a huge tin cup full of soft soap, a rough towel and A pick and shovel, which he offered Dearth U .$..«/ \..i v/ “What’s the pick and shovel for?" asked Draeh. ~ ;> ' . “Wal, stranger,” answered the landlord, “th’ watch’s low, and yo’ all *ll hev to dam up th’ creek.”—Cincinnati Enquirer. ■ ■ ' *<t m ,• .y«.-

Economy.

There were only four neighbors In Tucker’s general store at the crossing Of the plank ridge and the State road when Silas Slosson entered. “How be ye, boys?” he said collectively. "How be ye, SI?” was the reply. “Hou’s th’ ol’ lady?' “'Baout th’ same; don’t see much change.” Silas crossed the store to the counter, behind which stood Tucker, his face wreathed in mercantile smiles, his fat hands pressed against the varnishless table. “Whattel It be, Mistrir Slosson?” he asked. "Haow much ye glttin’ fer C sugar?” replied the prospective customer. “Six cents.” “Phew—w—w,” whistled Silas, “gone np, ain’t It? Didn’t hev t’ pay no sieh figger fer t’ las’ I bo’t.” “Thet so?” inquired Tncker with surprise. “Haow much'd ye hev t’ giv’?” "Five cents an’ a half.” * "Thet so?

The Smallest Watbfrlii tiife tvorld tt at present 7 On exhibition in a'fihow vOittdow in Berlin, ft fc tliO latest triumph ; in the art of watchmaking—the art that has made such wonderful 1 progress within the last decade. ij ‘ . :* The liiiputiau timepiece was made in Geneva. Following are given seine o? the tiny dimlnslons of its works: The diameter of the little watch Is less than half an “Inch. The exact measurement 1s 10 1-2 millimeters, or ,4137 Inch.

SMALLPOX DISTRIBUTORS.

How the Germs Are Nurtured and the Disease la Spread. It would seem that people will never learn to be careful. The recent alarming spread of that dire epidemic, smallpox, throughout different sections of the country has been traced by physicians and sanitarians in many Instances directly to the moldy and rotting layers of paper and paste which cover the walls of many houses. The practice of laying layer after layer of paper on a wall, using common flour paste, is especially calculated to create homes for disease germs. Feople could not do more to effect such a result if they tried. The rotting vegetable matter affords caves from which are ready to dart forth the infection at every opportunity. There is no excuse for this practice, as walls and ceilings can be coated with a pure, cleanly and sanitary material like Alabastlne, for instance, at no greater expense. Alabastine is a rock-base cement, which Incorporates itself with the wall or celling. It is easily applied, comes ready to mix with cold water, requires no washing or scraping before renewing or retinting, is beautiful, long-lasting and safe. For walls that have been Infected, nothing is equal to Alabastine as a disinfectant to render them pure and clean and the rooms once more habitable.

•Circumlocutory Revenge*

“I don’t know what possessed you to ask that shrill-voiced Mr. Carraway to sing last night. Didn’t you hear those odious Bimberlings pounding oil the partition wall?” ic Tes, I heard them. That’s why I coaxed Carraway to sing again. Bimberllng called me a fool because I wouldn’t quarrel with him over the century question.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

What Do the Children Drink?

Don’t give them tea or coffee. Have you tried the. sew food drink called GRAIN-O? It is delicious and nourishing, and takea the place of coffee. The more Grain-O you give the children the more health you distribute through their systems. Grain-O ia made of pare grains, and when properly prepared tastes like the choice grades of coffee, but costs about % as much. All grocers sell it 15c and 25c.
