PEDDLERS BY AIRPLANE The first aerial peddler has been licensed by the United States government. He is probably the fore-runner of many others who in the future years will land in Syracuse to sell goods. , . . s Under the doctrine of interstate commerce no small town or city can charge peddlers a license. The man who knocks at your front door to sell you goods that will be sent by mail for cash it protected by the United States government. He does nothing to assist in the growth or development of your town. The air peddler will accentuate this. The commercial growth of a community depends largely upon the extent of the stocks kept by its merchants. People do not come to a town to buy what the merchants do not sell. No merchant can enlarge his stocks until there is a demand for the goods. Merchandise bought from peddlers fails to create a demand. . . • ~ , Every local citizen should buy everything at home that is possible. Dollars sent away by money orders, or cheeks, seldom get back to home circulation. The carpenter who buys his tools by mail seldom thinks that a better business for the hardware merchant might mean more building activity. Every man and woman. working for a living in Syracuse, depends largely upon the money kept at home for payday prosperity.

LOCAL ANAESTHETIC Her appendix removed under : only a local anaesthetic. Miss Mary Curry, is recovering at the I citv hospital, in Bloomington, • Ind. The operation marked a radical change in the procedure in abdominal operations. On the operating table Miss Curry carried on a conversation with the surgeons, and seemed to suffer no pain. The operation consumed abcut 40 minutes. While Dr. JNoble, of Indianapolis made the* incision and proceeded with the operat’on anaesthesians were held in readiness in case the local anaesthetic should wear off, but it was found unnecessary to give the girl ether. An hour after the operation. Miss Curry ate a dinner of soft boiled eggs, toast and peaches and cream. Dr. Rodney Smith and Dr. W. W. Harris assisted Dr. Noble. One of the greatest advantages of the local anaesthetic, according to the surgeons, is the absence of the “ether cough” and after effects. o “No Maa's Law* featuring Rex, the king of wild horses.
