A. Notes BY W. H. Q. All post secretaries are in receipt of a . communication, from Mr. Steffins, chairman of the ritual committee, urging the Importance of all posts adopting the "lodge system with a rultualistic form of work." The State of Mishourl as well as nearly all states where ' the T. P. A. has license to do business grant special privileges to an association 'with a lodge system. He calls attention to our Constitution and By Laws which says "The posts shall use the ritualistic . form of work prescribed by the National Board of Directors and shall hold regular or stated meetings' at least once a month and all members shall be received through some post." Mr. Steffins urges in strong terms that post meetings be 'held once a month that members be elected and Initiated through posts and that the ritual me observed and followed! So officers of Post C, get your goat ready and give new members something to be (thankful for. We would also suggest that - to get into proper working order the prescribed form of initiation be adopted at once and some of the old "borrowed time" members such as Heggar, Hasty, SUFFERED EVERYTHING For Fotarteen Years.

Hirshburg, Kramer, Jenkins, HUl Browne, Gordon and a score of other weather-beaten, moth-eaten brethren be handed a touch of high life to limber up their joints. And we would also suggest that nothing be omitted for you may need it all when actual hostilities begin. W. A. Bradford, president of the Commercial Travelers' association of Indiana, was a visitor at the rooms this week. Mr. Bradford reports the C. T. A.'s as prosperous. The monthly report of National Secretary, T. 8. Logan is at hand and shows conditions as follows: Cash on hand, 186,07o.9U. Membership. 41,240. Gain over last January, 1,026. Paid for indemnity in December, $25,734.22. Latest reports from the defunct "midnight crew" via Vice President J. B. llegger, is to the effect that all political, religious and international questions as well as the gas, water works and star chamber session propositions being satisfactorily settled, that awaiting something new to come along; to demand their attention. "Rhum" has again been resorted to for passtime. However, as several "burapB" from water-wagon falls are now in order, we will not be at all surprised to hear that the said Creed has again adopted their schedule. There is no class of citizens in a community that has as complete a knowledge, of conditions in general as the traveling salesman. Not the drummer, If you please, for that individual has gone out of existence. The necessities of modern business required talent he could not furnish, so only one thing was left for the ancieut story-teller and that was the discard. The up-to-date and successful traveling salesman can make the average stay-at-home citizen look like a "two spot" when it comes to knowing situations. He knows not only his own line but that of every competitor he has; he knows the relative reported merits of almost every line sold in his territory; he knows the financial condition of his customers, how much business they do, how they pay their bills, who they buy of besides himself. He knows all the prominent citizens in all the towns he visits, is just as much at home in Briant Joy county as he is in Muncie, and knows a good percentage of the folks in both towns. He knows all the train schedules, all the livery stables, and their clerks, all hotels, good and bad and has them classified. He bumps up against more kinds, shapes and dispositions of humanity in one week's trip than the average stay-at-home citizen does in a lifetime. He is the best judge of human nature in the universe. He is paid the highest salary that is paid any kind of employe. He all in all, has more general knowledge, carried up in his cranium than the average man suspects for he is not always blowing his head off telling all he knows. As a class, they spend more money than any other class of men on earth and with less fuss about it. He knows how Richmond measures up with its neighbors. He knows how its neighbors measures up with its neighbors. He knows what Richmond makes better than other towns. He knows how our streets, hotels, street cars, electric lights and in )act most everything we have got, compared with other cities. However, once in a while he gets tired. One of these times is when a $24 per month hotel clerk who won't knlw as much in a million years as he had forgotten, tries to tell him things. Swells up as it were with his importance and hands our friend the traveling man, a line of "sassy talk." Thts is done, we are glad to say only occasionally. Mr. Hotel Clerk don't do it. You will lose out.' Then Holy Smoke! won't the hotel proprietors ever learn that the hotel is the traveling man's home; that he is the best spender on the globe; that all he wanta is courteous treatment, a clean, comfortable room, plenty of good 'grub" well prepared, individual tow. els. and sanitary closets and wash rooms. 8ome , proprietors do and

body loves them. Some hotel clerks understand and get good salaries, and the boys advertise them the country over. Others don't, and their salary would not make pocket change for the average traveling man one hour, and they are advertised too But, Oh my! Mister Clerk, you ought to hear how it's done. Average Citizen, you bad better take your hat off to the traveling salesman he is the ammunition that makes the business go. U. C. T. Notes By G. M. C. A seasoned old veteran of the road offers some timely hints which are guaranteed to bring success to the traveling man. The three essential qualities, this man says, are: Common sense, energy and honesty. He says: "Be clever, be posted, be Arm and most important of all, be quiet, as many have been known to talk themselves to death." Avoid familiarity, avoid argument as much as possible, and never knock your competitor for it gives him too much free advertising." Allow your customer to know a few things himself, and last, but not least, after you have done all these things and served on the road a long enough time,, join the Order of United Commercial Travelers of America." Here are some of the things of vital importance that the wife of every U. C. T. member should know. She should know that in caee her husband should accidentally be killed she will be paid $6,300 in all, $5,000 of this in one check and $25 weekly for a period of one year. She should know about the widows' and orphans' fund, not a charity or pension, that is coming to her if she has other resources, but something that she is entitled to without humiliation if she has no other resources. She should know that her case will be taken care of by men from her own home council, men who are her friends and her husband's friends. Kvery commercial salesman is in business for himself, even though he is on a pay roll. He is constanlty building up character and developing his own powers, and to do this conscientiously is sure to bring recognition. Hugh Chalmers says that the business man deals with five M's money, materials, machinery, men and merchandise, and that with each and all of these a given result can be obtained but that the biggest thing to get is "MEN." There are men and men and hat which marks the difference is power MY DOCTOR MIGHTY FINE Mrs. Hattie Cain of CarrsvUIc Thinks all the More or Her Doctor Since He Advised Her to Take Cardul Carrsville, Ky. "My doctor," writes Mrs. Hattie Cain, "who advised me to take Cardui, for my troubles, is a mYgnty fine doctor, and I say God bless Cardui and the people who make it "Before. 1 took Cardui. I suffered with female troubles for sixteen years. I would have to send for a doctor every three month, and oh! how dreadfully 1 suffered! "I would cramp and have convulsions and it looked like I would die. At last I took Cardui and oh! what a surprise! I found it was the medicine for me! "From the first bottle.

The Hair and Its Care," Sent Free Upon Request. The Herpicide Company want everyone to have a copy of their booklet telling how to take care of and possess nice hair. The booklet contains much valuable information oh the subject of saving and cultivating the hair. If the present-day men and women would begin to live up to the teachings -of this little booklet it is doubtful if the next generation would find a baldheaded man or lady wearing false hair. It is just as easy to have robust and beautiful hair as to have thin, scraggy hair or no hair at all. If the scalp is kept clean and free from dandruff the hair grows naturally and luxuriantly. The booklet tells how this may be most effectively accomplished by the use of Newbro's Herpicide. Herpicide destroys the germ which causes dandruff, frees the head from dirt and scarf flakes. The hair becomes light, fluffy and beautiful. Newbro's Herpicide is the original remedy that kills the dandruff germ for which there are many imitations and substitutes said to be just as good. Buy nothing but the original. All reliable druggists sell and guarantee genuine Herpicide in one dollar sire bottles. Send 10c in postage to The Herpicide Co., Dept. R., Detroit, Mich., and a nice sample will be sent with the booklet. Applications obtained at the better barber shops and hair dressing parlors. A. G. Luken & Co., special agents. and ability. A great deal of these two qualities may depend upon personal magnetism, but some of it is honest effort and hard work backed up by sincerity. In this day and age when every one begins to recognize the fact tnat thoughts live, the futility of trying to make an impression with words false to our thought is understood. Then there are the ruts, shun them for they graduate to that which is of the same shape only shorter and deeper, the grave. The Grass Widow Defined. It is related of a Methodist bishop that when presiding over a district conference in North Carolina he bad an attack of hay fever and In consequence was somewhat Irascible and impatient. A young preacher who gave a rather poor account of his work was given a severe reprimand by the bishop and asked to state the reason for his failure. "Well, bishop," he explained, "we had a lot of trouble the first year with a grass widow, and" "A grass widow V roared the bishop. "And what, pray, is a grass widow?" "A grass widow, bishop," responded the young clergyman, "Is a woman whose husband died of hay fever." St. Louis Republic. Perhaps. "Why," said the youug man who tries to be cynical, "are dogs and horses so much more faithful in their friend ships for us than our fellow humau beings?" "Perhaps," replied Miss Cayenne.

ICEBERG GROUPINGS. Clusters and Long Lines Fermed by Storms and Ocean Currents. Among the perils and wonders of the ocean there are few more interesting things than icebergs, interesting not only by reason of their gigantic size, their fantastic shapes, their exceeding beauty, bet also for the manner wherein they array themselves. Icebergs exhibit a tendency to form both clusters and long lines, and these groupings may arise from the effects both of ocean currents and of storms. Some very singular lines of bergs, extending for many hundreds of miles east of Newfoundland, have been shown on official charts issued by the government. Two of these cross each other, each keeping on its independent course after the crossing. In several Instances parallel lines of bergs leave long spaces of clear water between

them. Curiously enough, while enormous fields of ice Invade the so called "steamship lanes" of the Atlantic at the opening of spring during certain years, in other years at that season there is comparatively little ice to be seen. The i:e comes, of course, from the edges of the arctic regions, from the 1 icebound coasts of Greenland and Labrador, where huge bergs, broken from the front of the glaciers at the point where they reach the sea. start on their long journeys toward the south, driven by the great current that flows from Baffin bay into the northern Atlantic ocean. Harper's Weekly. Why Stars Twinkle. The twinkling of the stars is chiefly aa effect produced in the atmosphere upon the waves of light It is due to currents and strata of air of different densities intermingling and floating past each other, through which the light passes to the eye. It is seen much more in cold than in warm weather and nearer the horizon more than overhead. The same effect may be seen by looking out of a window over a hot radiator or a candle held on the other side of a hot stove, so that you have to look through a body of highly heated air at the candle flame. The flame will be seen to waver and quiver. In other words, the various layers of air are at different densities and in motion, hence the "twinkle." Exchange. Mrs. A. R. Tabor, of Crider, Mo., had been troubled with sick headache for about five years, when she began tak ing Chamberlain's Tablets. She has taken two bottles of them and they have cured her. Sick headache is caused by a disordered stomach for which these tablets are especially intended. Try them, get well and stay well. Sold by all dealers. Uncut Books.

r7 AB0UT A M'LE ft Makes a Diffsrenee In Whi'-h Lant One Travels This Distance. If you take a notion to settle down for a time and after you have beeu whisked out and back in a motorcar you think to ask how far the house is from the station the agent carelessly waves his hand and airily remarks. "About a mile," you had best take heed as to what country you are in at ttu time. If it is in England you are all right, for the familiar 1.760 yards is the standard, but if you have taken a fancy to some sod thatched Irish cottage it means a traxap of 2,240 yards, and if you are moved to linger in the highlands remember that the braw Scot calls 1,076 yards a mile. Considering the size of Swltxerland. one might expect a mile to be about as far as. one could throw a ball, but the hardy mountaineers think 0.153 yards the proper thing, even when, as it generally is, it is very much uphill. The Swiss is the longest mile of all. being followed by the Vienna post mile of S.29G yards. The Flemish mile is C.SC0 yards, the Prussian S.237 yards, and in Denmark they walk 8.244 yards and call it a stroll of a mile. The Arabs generally ride good horses and call 2,143 yardfj a mile, while the Turks are satisfied with 1,826 yards, and the Italians shorten the distance of a mile to 1.763 yards. Just six yards more than the American has in mind when the agent waves his band and blandly remarks, "About a mile." Chicago Record Herald. Tea and Ceffes.
