NOTICE !

In accordance with the request made
by many Of our valued customers who
fOrcsaW a great Inconvenience to Friday
afternoon shopping, in case we closed,
we have decided to keep our establish
mont open every day in the week as
usual during July and August, for the
accommodation and convenience of the
purchasing public; and to compensate
our clerks and make it pleasant all around,
we have decided that during those
months we will give each and every EN-
pIoyc one day in each week for rest and
recreation. During those months we
shall give six days pay for five days ser,
vice. To accomplish these two objects a
portion Of the help will be allowed away
each day in each week, and by this
method the convenience of the public
will be better served than by closing, and
our employees much better pleased with a
whole day 5 rest instead of half day.

He was a delegate to that first convention.
There were only four states moro thar the
original thirteen then.
On the formation of tile Republican party,
In 1856, Cameron joined it. He has worked
for it with enthusiasm ever since. He had
been a Democratic United States senator
under Polk. Buchanan had been senator be-
fore him, but went into Folks cabinet. He
asked Cameron who should succeed him.
IF l am not mistaken, I will,n answered
Simon, pert enough.
And he did succeed him, but Buchanan
never liked him afterwards.
Mr.. Cameron admits modestly that he had
a talent for money making. But he also had
a talent for politics, and he could not let that
alone. Between one and the other he has
passed his life "a busy but pleasant one,n he
says.
1t was on Simon's W recommendation
that Edwin M. Stanton succeeded him as
secretary of war in Lincoln's cabinet. Chase
and Seward had conservative, not to say
timid, notions about carrying on the war.
Cameron was for bold and t~horough-going
measures. So there was a disagreement and
Cameron became to minister to Russia. But
Lincoln could not do without his planner of
campaigns. Simon came home. Some Of

got the legislature of every state in the Union
to sign a paper asking him to be a candidate

in his favor that no other man could stand

every state in the Union had done likewise.

railway track, two roads for wagons, two
for street cars, and two for foot passengers.
The scenery, both on the Kentucky and

picturesque and attractive.
Long cantilever bridges are quite the

A new bridge has just been built over the
Ohio river, at Louisville, which is unique in
architecture, in some respects. Over it the
trains of the Louisville, New Albany and

way to the south.
This is the second bridge across the river at
louisville. it is on the cantilever plan, the
central idea Of which is the balancing of
bridge spans upon upright pillars. The spans
are fixed in the center, and anchored and

Simon Cameron was the poorest of poor
boys He who was to be adjutant general of
Pennsylvania, United States senator for
eighteen years, minister to Russia, secretary
of war, railroad builder and railroad presi-
dent was the son of a tailor who had more
children than customers. They were so poor
that Simon was put to live out with one of
the neighbors when he was 10 years old.
There is something pathetic in the story of
his early struggles. From his mother he gets
the strength and courage that has led him to
success.
He learned the printing trade, and wan
dered to Washington, where he put into type
congressional debate in 1921, ''by the light of
a tallow candle,n as he himself says. He
worked twelve hours a day and got SO a
week pay. But he had a liking for
