To stimulate interest, the kindergartner said, in her most enthusiastic manner: "Children, as I came to school to-day in the trolleycar, the door opened and something came softly in and kissed me on the cheek. What do you think it was?" And the children joyfully answered, "The conductor!"-Harper's Magazine.

INTERESTING CUSTOMERS IN SANITARY SERVICE.-TO acquaint customers with the merits of Vortex sanitary paper cups and dishes, the Owl Drug Store, of Nogales, Arizona, recently conducted a poem-writing contest.

At the famous Ow! Drug Store. The $2.50 prize for men contestants went to the author of the following: Tere with my saritary dish I sit, Since health and service so well agree?

THE AMERICAN DRUGGIST.-With the possible exception of the grocer and the meat dealer, there is none who occupies a more prominent and important position in our community and business activity than does the American druggist. Many towns are so stunted that they have to get along without an editor and some other agencies of progress and uplift, but it is indeed a small place that does not have a druggist. The American retail druggist is sui generis. Travel the world over and you will encounter his like nowhere. Europe and other civilized places have their chemist and apothecary shops, which are dreary places compared with the corner drug store that is an attractive center of business and social intercourse in every populous American neighborhood. The druggist in most foreign lands is looked upon as necesary but to be patronized only in an emergency. He has no soda fountain, no free telephone, none of the other allurements that draw the healthy along with the ill to his place of business. The retail druggist in this country has made himself indispensable by his enterprise and foresight in ministering to the requirements of those in his vicinity. He has been progressive and aggressive. He has sugarcoated the pill, has put our castor oil in capsules, given us plasters that will come off-maybe-and done a thousand and one other little services for ailing humanity. He has earned the prosperity and approval that are his. Indianapolis is pleased to be his host and voices the sentiment of appreciative patrons in all parts of the country when it wishes him continued and increased success.-Indianapolis Star. HUBBY: "Hubbs is no kind of an umpire. He's no judge of fouls." Wife: "Why hubby, I'm surprised to hear you say so, when he raises the best fancy chickens in the neighborhood."-Baltimore American.
