BABY CARRIAGES AMISS IH QUAKER CITY Conductors Say They Are Not Bothered, as in Other Indiana Towns Where There Are Car Lines.

A CHRISTMAS SUGGESTION that will be valuable to the housewife who wants her Xmas cakes, bread and mince and pumpkin pies to be a success Is that she use high grade, clean coal. You can't bake line bread, cakes, or pies unless your oven is heated properly with good coal such as you will find at oar yard. O. D. BULLERDICK

Did you ever notice the small number of matrimonial waste baskets on Richmond city cars? Well, there are not many of them; that is they are fewer in proportion to the size of the city than they are

with a city car system. Street car conductors asserted that it Is true; they said so last night, and they ought to know for a street car man is no lover of baby cabs, gocarts, brat baskets, or whatever you want to call them. He would give them all the white block signal and pull the bell rope with a double Jerk every time a wom

an with a baby and a baby vehicle appears at the street corner just ahead. You can't fool a conductor into liking kids and that's the reason. Richmond is short of go-carts and the wherewithal to put In them, so the congress of street car men say. It Is said that in other cities every car has one or two and on up to five squawlers aboard to make the busy man

feel that life ain't all a dream neither. But the business man don't care

for race suicide, especially when It

takes a woman with a baby and cart twice as long as it does anyone else to get aboard a car when he Is going

home to supper.

ART SCHOOL PUTS FIG LEAVES Oil STATUES Merchants and Ministers Say Too Much Emphasis on Art With Big A.

Trenton, N. J., Dec. 7. Apollo, Hermes, Diana, the Greek Slave, Discobulus, eVnua, and other marbles which have looked forth on the public for many' centuries, naked but unashamed, and have been admired here In the Industrial Art school for decades have been clothed in fig leaves. Charcoal drawings have been denaturized, plaster sketches have been retouched. The board of directors of the Trenton Industrial art school caused the action of clothing the unclothed classics as the result of a meeting last week, in which ardent ministers, Sunday Bchool superintendents, several merchants

and a few professional men decided that there was too much aggressive

ness about art with a capital A, and that the purposes of the exhibition

would best be served through the me dium of the fig leaf.

Accordingly today when the public visited the art halls of the school,

they were amazed to see reproductions of the masters, the marble tints of

which have become - mellowed , by age

and smoke, with glaring white fig

leaves attached. The supporters of

the idea said that the glare of the clothing would grow less with time

and the accumulation of smoke. .

We regret sincerely to

learn of the illness of our

Secretary, M. L. Hasty, and of our old: time hus

tier. John B. Hegger. We

hope however that neither one is in a

serious condition, and that they will soon be out hustling. The fact that these two main stays hare not been at their post ' of duty this week no doubt has caused the extraordinary

quietness in T. P. A. circles. e

We are advised that Let. Turner is

contemplating a trip to Florida. It

seems that some of Richmond's citizens have been making some Investments around Sanford, Fla., that have proven ulte attractive and several other people are figuring on trips of investigation to the "wonderful country." We sincerely trust that If Let. goes to Florida, he will find all kinds of ready money awaiting him, and can make a good profitable investment that will put him on easy street for the rest of his days. It might be well for him to keep in mind that he has & lot of friends hack in Richmond that a little easy, money would look awful good to, and if he sees any good propositions flying around that can be bought at bargain counter prices, after he has taken all that he can carry,

wire us at our expense and we might find , some one with a "little mouldy money" that would entertain propositions. The financial stringency, as talked so much about, does not seem to affect any of the members of Post C that we have heard of. As far as outward appearances go, they are prosperous, drawing their salaries, regularly, and as happy as traveling men generally are. They are able to. go out and secure good sized orders, come home, "love their wives and love

their wives alone" as all good Richmond traveling men have done as far

back as we have any history. Keep everybody in good spirits by their Cheerful stories and happy looks. e e e

The next two weeks will be ones of

hard work for the traveling men. as nearly everybody will want to get their year's business wound up on Saturday

before Christmas. Christmas coming

in the middle of the week this year will make It a bad week to do any business, as nearly everybody will want their goods in the week before. No doubt a great many of the boys will be at home Christmas week. "Billy" Simcoke has resigned his position with Howard & Co., and is no longer "toting" the grip. We have not learned what Billy's future , intentions are. He has our best wishes for success in any line that he engages in. e e Quite a number of the traveling men out of Richmond will regret very much to learn of the death of John S. Fisher, of Fairhaven, Onto, a merchant of that town who has been in business there for a number of years, and has been a customer of the grocery, candy and notion houses of Richmond for a long

time.

Mr. Fisher was & man of sterling qualities and was held in high esteem by all who knew him. His death is much to be regretted. e F. L. Gaines, a prominent merchant

of Trenton, Indiana, called on business

houses and friends yesterday. e e The Richmond Candy company has moved into its new quarters on North Eighth street, and we are pleased to notice that they have a most elegantly equipped, factory, and will no doubt be much better than the old place. We are also pleased to note the prosperity that has attended the efforts of our old friends, Chris. Cain and Fred Brown, who have stacked their money ud business ability along with, the

excellent salesmanship of Rue Barton, Frank Wehrley, Wes Thomas and Clarence . Finney, wnich has made a combination that is bound to be successful. It Is a mighty good rule to never talk about a competitor? There is a little

bit of logic that says: "A wise man talks about the virtues of that which he has to sell. A vain man talks about himself, and a fool talks about his competitors." There is never a cent made by telling your customers what a competitor is doing. If they insist on telling you what he is doing.

it 13 a good policy to liEten to it all an-1 the nwhen it comes time for you to express an opinion, merefc' pass the. matter over aa of little consequence, and proceed to interest them in what you are selling. Ex. We do not believe that the above lit

tle piece of logic applies to very many traveling men in Richmond, but our experienee ha taught us that it applies to some traveling1 men In general, who would be better off if they would sell goods for the firm they are traveling for and let other firms alone. W. H. Q.
