HIS FOOT ON THE TREADMILL.

Mr. Joacker Tells of One Sentenced to Hard Labor for Life.

8UILUING UP BUSINESS

Said Mr T.a ker. wtv was reaiiag the paper: " Another poor wretch has been given a life sentence at hard labor." Said Mrs. Joacker. who was embroidering blue roses "Probably us deserves it. What is he guilty of." Traud and no visible means of support. He obtained clothes and a fine turnout with no money and nothing collectible He seems to be larger and stronger than most of that class, yet it Is niain that he has never done a tap of work, though he has managed to live well, so far. Rut the poor fellow takes his sentence hard and cries pitenusly. protesting his innocence." "The wretch He must have dealt with perfect fools!" "No. his victim is our own friend. Jack Smith." "That clever lawyer' Do read to me all about it'" " 'Born to Mr. and Mrs. John Smith, a 12-pound boy.'" The Bohemian.

AS THE BOY UNDERSTOOD.

Probably to His Mind Conflict of Authority Was Vita. In one of the Atlanta Sunday schools recently the lesson for the day had to do with Mammon and the corrupting Influences of great riches. Toward the close of the exercises, says Harper's Magazine, the superintendent called upon the infant class to repeat the golden text, which had special reference to man's inability to serve his Creator and the money god at one and the same time. The class failed to respond as it should, when the superintendent, noticing his own young hopeful in the ranks, who had that very morning been drilled thoroughly on the text, called to him. The response was immediate, though a alight departure from the original, for in a voice that was distinctly heard in all parts of the room there came the .following modification: "Ye cannot serve God and mamma!"

No, Not as a Rule. Gt.or?e P. Angell. Boston's brilliant and powerful defender of animals from cruelty, was talking about nature fak.ng. "My friend. Will Ixng is no nature faker." he said, but I admit that many of our myrtad nature writers are. These men s idea of a He seems too closely to resemble that of a little boy I know. "The boy's teacher said from her desk one afternoon: " 'I want every pupil who has never told a lie to hold up his hand." "There was a doubtful pause. Two or three hands were raised. Then my little friend piped out: " 'Teacher, is it a lie if nobody finds It out"

Social Rank. At a country' dance in a southern

town, when the fiddlers had resined their bows and taken their places on the platform, the floor manager rose. "Got yo' partners for a cotillion!" he shouted, imperiously. "All you ladies an' gemmen dat wears shoes an' stockings take yo' places in de middle ob de room. All you ladles an' gemmen dat wears shoes an' no stockings take you' places Immejitly behin' dem. An' you barefooted crowd Jest Jig It roun' in de corners." Youth's Companion. An Early Discovery. "Your epigrams and sdages show (rear wisdom." said the dependent. "Yes." snswered Marcus Aurellus. "I can's deny that I regard them as ooH-thing vry wise indeed. There ts nothing like them for popularizing an administration."

AN ORIGINAL PLAN TO TEST NEW ENTERPRISES.

AN INDUSTRY INCUBATOR

EQLITY IN BUSINES.

Suggestions as to Asa'ating Small Manufacturers Toward Success and Hcpmg Town Interests.

Rejardless of the magnitude of a city or town there runs: be nr.; ment for the people In fact, population of any city depends upon the opportunity that It nisy afford the residents gaining a livelihood. The agricultural town receives us support from whatever mercantile traffic it can gain from ceaiiguoua territory, and what industries iu the manufacturing line that can be advantageously conducted. The city draws support from the smaller tous in an area of country, which, owiiic to its : t; hical post tion and what other advantages it may hav it may command the trade of. It is to the advantage of every town to have as many manufacturing plants as can bo profltfbly operated. Natural conditions regulate manufacturing to a great extent. Transporta tion facilities. the a st of raw material and fuel are highly important factors: et there are certain lines of small manufacturing that can be well carried on in any community if only rightly managed For many years ambitious towns have followed the practice of offering bonuses to manufacturing concerns in order to secure their location. The bonus system has not always opvr-.d satisfactorily Too often promoters of manufacturingenterprises look to the bonus offered as a means of making profit rather than to the legitimate conduct of the business Then, again, there are stock-jobbing schemes that operate In connection with the bonus plan, and it has been known that hundreds of thousands nf dollars hav been lost by people anxious to further the manu factunng interests of their home towns. Numerous manufacturing centers have been gradually built up through the right kind of co-operation of the citizens. There is one prosperous city m Illinois that owes its activity main ly to the plans pursued by an enter prising class of Swedish citizens, who some 30 years ago organized a Swedish Aid society. This society ad vanced money to worthy workers who desired to engage in business. Officers of the society supervised the business to a great extent, and small concerns which were established have grown to be factories whose output run well up Into the millions annually. This aid society loaned money to be repaid from the profits of the business The plan was a successful on The system here referred to suggests a means hereby each town or city which desires to build up manu factoring interests can do so at the minimum cost: that is. that the dan gers and objections offered by the bonus systems are entirely eliminated, as is also the chance for promoters to reap a harvest through the exploitation of unsound enterprises. This plan involves the incorporation of a promoting company. Local capital may be subscribed to whatever extent is deemed expedient To illustrate: If an organization be formed with $2. OuO capital. $10.000 of this capital can be employed in the equipment of a building for manufacturing purposes. lh!s building can have facilities for half a doz n to a dozen small manufacturing concerns The power necessary may be supplied from a general power pbanv The machinery for manufacturing can be Installed as required. A board of directors shall be selected to oversee the business. Whenever a small enterprise is found to be seekIn I a location, the directors are em powered to negotiate for its location in the town. The roncern may be incorporated and a small amount of stock taken by the holding company. Facilities for manufacturing and marketing whatever the product may be are afforded If the enterprise proves successful it can be moved from the experimental station into a separate building, the holding company investing in its stock, and the dividends on

the stock can be placed in the general fund for the extension of other enter prises. Should an enterprise prove to be lacking in merit it can be discard In this manner from half a dozen to a dozen diffen-nt enterprises can be carried on and thoroughly tested as to practical workings Of course, it

must no be expected that all of the

undertakings will prove successful but If good judgment be used in select

tag enterprise, a large percentage

w'll prove profitable. Those who sub

crlbe for the stock of the holding company can be compensated by receiving an equitable percentage upon the amount Invested in stock. This plin eliminates the objection able features of granting bonuses and the subscribing for stock in concerns that are In embryo stage and purely experiments.

Practice of Live and Let L ve Principles Most Desirable. Too frequently It is noticed thst In the struggle to sttsin wealth the tights of the Individual are ignored Fair dealing is a desirable thing as well as most simple and it requires cr.'.y common honesty to practice it Not alone is there honesty Inwdved In the matter of selling but also in the matter of buying It is quite es dishonorable for the pun laser tc act that the seller receive no profit on an article sold as it is for the seller to demand an exo:bltant price for his goods There ts much sound phtloeophy In the live and let live gospel. This Is nothing more than an observance of the Golden Rule that has found expression in all ages of enlightenment from the rime of Gautama down to the present. In every day dealings it is apparent that there is too much of xaggeratod selfishness in evidence, toil great a rtruggle for the vantage There should be a spirit of Christian cooperation that would be just to all alike hoi- communities subVr sometimes from the lack of ibis sense of equity on the part of merchants and their customers.

How often is the complaint heard In

rural districts that the storekeepers of a town charge too high prices for what they have to sell? How often is it noticed that where this feeling dom inates the (eople that ths home town suffers as a consequence? It is short sightedness on parts of mer

hants to require of their customers j

more than what may be considered a itlmate and Just profit. In fact, it is poor business policy to follow out a plan of this kind. There are many towns whose growth has been prevented through a grasping tendency of the merchants to make all they pos sibly can in a few short years, aad to give the people as small an amount of goods as they will take for their money. The natural result of a policy of this kind is that the people seek other towns in which to do their trading and quite often buy from the distant mail-order house. Habits once formed are hard to break. It is quite as difficult for thmerchant to recover from the habit of making exorbitant profits as it is for the patron of the mall-order house to turn his trade to the home stores Should both the merchants and their tomers calmly consider principles that enter Into commerce, and both determine to practice equity in their ! al'.n.s. the merchant to sell honest goods at honest profits and the cus toraer to give patronage to merchants who would practice this principle. It would be wholesome not alone for the home towns, but for all the com munlties.

TOWN HELPS.

It is easy to estimate the business importance of a place by the appearance of its stores. Dingy, dirty appearing business places always give a bad impression and are generally indicative of the character of the business men of the town. Good newspapers are important factors in building of towns. Well filled advertising pages, as well as local news pages speak for the prosperity of a place and makes an Impression upon the readers that assist the town to greater prosperity. Each town should have a arood public hall, a place where meetings can be held or entertainments given. If such a hall be erected by private enterprise if rightly managed can be made a profitable 'nvestment in the average small town. a a Quite often when towns are organ ized the matter of providing for public parks Is overlooked. Every town is a city in embryo. No one can prophesy how great It may become In time. It is well to look Into the future and to set aside grounds that may be used for park purposes. It has been the experiments of many cities that the park question Is a troublesome one when not looked after In ample time. There is nothing that makes the city more attractive or is stich a blessing to its people as a cozy park where they may meet for recreation during the warmer months of the year

PUBLIC OPINION.

v J

No Good to Town. The man who spends his time loafing about the town stores and complain Ing of the conditions of his environ ments Is no good to himself, his family or his town There are a class of men who spend their time In bemoaning the fart thst they sre not getting the right kind of living which the world owes them, and who never once think how much better this living could be If they would only hustle The man who I constantly grumbling about th dullness of his town is never found looking around to discover a means by which he can make It livelier.

Power of the Country Press and Its Influences Upon the Community. While the influences of the great city papers are recognired and th great magaxines fill a necessary field, neither of these conveyers of general information can ever supplant the field

J that is occupied by the country press.

The home paper Is the medium that conveys local Intelligence to its read ers. It fills a place in the journalistic world that no other publication can ever supplant. The country press is one of the greatest powers la the molding of public opinion. It msy not be up to the highest classical standard, but its rough literary gems sre contin ual'y shining resplendent and cast their rays In the most remote corners of the land. It Is a power for good la its reflection of events. :n the local Held are shown the progress of the people whom It represents. It is the

I mirror of the condition of the tows

and the country. The residents of every community should take the greatest pride in assisting in making the home press more powi-fui. stand up for your home paper. It Is the one staunch advocate of your local Interests and to an extent it indicative of either ynur prosperity or your la-k of progress.

That is. little frock- that are quaintly old fashioned in their lines are made from plain materials and are little trimmed This means very short, puffed sleeves, square or round necks, showing the flesh Überall), rathei long skirted effects, no ruffles or tucks, but deep hems and short stockings or sock with diminutive black slippers This Innovation of extreme simplicity ts a boon to both mothers and children. It means far less labor to the mother, far less fussing for the children Five or six of these simple little dresses in the weekly laundry does not mean so much, but were they covered with tucks frills, lace and embroidery the work would be trebled. An old style that Is revived. Is the bishop dress for the youngsters to play in. and if made in fine material is quite pretty enough to visit in. However, it works up so well in little checks, with just a touch of embroidery at the neck and sleeves, that it is most popular in that sort of material. The sleeves of these bishop dresses form a part of the dies and are joined right on to the neck band, and you cannot imaeine how a child welcomes the freedom of these little play frocks. The same simplicity is found in outer garments, and the plain long coat that falls in unbroken lines from the shoulders is the favorite for youn;? children, and it is always becoming to them Time was when belts were uo 1 fancy buttons, colored braids and even lace, but those must all be ut away for another time A little velvet collar can hardly be classed as trimming To some child , n who are particularly j.ale or sallow, it lends a tone to their cheeks, and for such children it is recommended. Almost all the babies are wearing little plain pique hats, the tops of which are buttoned on. These little hats protect the baby's eyes and are readily laundered For the little one who still wears a rap. one made of a sheer handkerchief is as pretty and effective as those costing much more. These should be fitted to the head of the child and tied with a tiny pink or blue ribbon under the chin. Sunhonncis for the children vho play outdoors are again much worn, and can readily be msde st home, while the older children who wear straw hats have them trimmed with just an extremely large bow of ribbon or a wreath of flowers.

As for the long chiffon veils, their Tsriety is infinite They are seen in every color, with licht gray. London smoke and champagne color leadins favorites. These veils are made up and measure three yards long One very stylish veil In brown has a broad hemstitched hem and above It a two Inch box plait hemstitched through the middle. Some of the shorter chiffon veils, I one and ore-half yards long, are hem- , stitched, and have large velvet dots 1

quite far apart. These dots are usually of s contrasting odor, as gray with black velvet dots, tan with brown, and blue or pink with black. A white chiffon veil, with small white velvet pin dots, is extremely popular The most practical automobile veil Is square It is of chiffon cloth one and one-half yards square, and hemmed all around It comes in every color, but the light tan. gray, lavender aJ s warm red brown are specially lovely. This veil is put entirely over the hat. Ith the edges even all around, and is pinned firmly at the rsck of the neck. Among the novelties in long veils Is a pink silk tissue, with a two inch hem and a pin point thread dot in whit". Another is a lace veil. In either black, cream or a deep shade of blue that Is almost an Alice blue with a broad border of embroidered flowers and foilage in silver thread.

Small pincushions, made In the form of various fruit. and vegetables, are always both useful and decora tive. They make very welcome littl gifts, and are equally In place on the dressing table or the escritoire Moreover, they are very useful for stalls at a bazar, where they always command a ready sale. We give' an illustration of a pretty littl pincushion of this kind made in exact imitation of a tomato. It should be covered with crimson velvet, matching as nearly as possible

the natural color of a ripe tomato, and cut in four sepsrate pieces, the better to Imitat tha shape of the fruit. The stalk could be made of narrow creen ribbon, stiffened inside with wire, while Iks narrow points should be "f the ribbon only. This tomato pincushion conld easily be arranged to hang on the corner of a looking class by attaching a long loop of narrow, green silk ribbon very firmly to the top. Just behind the green stalk A round ba'lnhaped cushion would be made, and not too tightly fitted It is covered with velvet; then the divisions would be made by drawing red baby ribbon tightly down over the cushion: It must then be pressed on the top to flatten it. and the stalk sewn on.
