You would never in the world find Cowbell "Holler" alone, so I will
tell you how to get there. You come over the Big Hill pike until you
reach West Pinnacle. It was from the peak of West Pinnacle that
Daniel Boone first looked out over the blue grass region of
Kentucky. You follow the pike around the base of the Pinnacle, and
there you are, right in the heart of Cowbell "Holler," and only two
pastures and a creek away from Miss Adelia Fox's rural social
settlement--the first of its kind, so far as I know, in America.

THE ROAD TO RETAIL SUCCESS

BY BENJAMIN H. JEFFERSON

You all know the retail druggist who has worked fifteen or sixteen
hours a day all his life, and now, as an old man, is forced to
discharge his only clerk. You all know the grocer who has changed
from one store to another and another, and who finally turns up as a
collector for your milkman. You all know the hard working milliner
and, perhaps, have followed her career until she was lost to sight
amid sickness and distress. You all have friends among stationers
and newsdealers. You have seen them labor day in and day out, from
early morning until late at night; and have observed with sorrow the
small fruits of their many years of toil.

Why did they fail?
