was increased to 100000 and SUISSE
quently to 100000. The profits last
half year were fl2,225; expense OF
management per cent. of sales. Their
wine and spirit license cost them about
f22 Is, and during the year it applied
they did business in those articles to
the extent of f194, 1000, which was more
than several ordinary traders would do.
The officials of all the cooperative
supply stores admitted that their bust
ness had injured the shopkeepers I'M
mensely, but claimed that the general
public had been benefited in a CORE
spending ratio by the reduction in
prices. Staple articles are sold at
mere fraction above the cost, but a
higher rate is charged on articles not
in constant demand.

by the Sad Sea Waves.

A gaunt young man, with long, dark
hair and look of yearning after the
unknowable, was standing on Coney
island beach on Saturday, and by his
side was woman whom he addressed
as "My love-" He was watching the
white caps far from shore, and she
seemed to be looking at the bathers.
Without removing his gaze from the
wrinkled surface of the distant water,
he exclaimed, "Oh, that great day when
the bounding sea shall give up its Sc
cretsp
"Yes," the woman said, with languid
interest. 81 wonder if that dumpy
woman's hair is her own?"
A look of extreme sadness came over
his face, like the shadow of an UNI
brella, and he Involuntary drew back a
single step. In so doing he stepped
into hole, dug bya golden-haired little
fairy of or summers, and turned a
back summersault.
"My love" looked at him reproach-
fully, and said: "Leonidas, 1 am
ashamed of you"
He murmured something about the
mischievous boys that put holes be-
hind people for them to tumble over"
and then sat down in the sand to take of
his shoes and empty the ballast out of
them. He had one shoe off and was
busting his instep; just then the largest
wave of the afternoon came up and OBJ
liberated all the prints in the sands
around him-but one. His wife had
retreated, and the appealing look that
he cast at her while the wave was re-
ceding threw gloom over the gay
throng on the beach.
