We meant to print a full
account Of our winter under
wear, merino, wool and silk,
mems. women's and chill
dren's. Nothing but oppor,
tunlty to get the informa-
ton together has hindered.
Gather held off so long we
kept thinking the time
would wait. Now the time
will wait no longer; the
store is full of buyers; they
have got to be attended to-;
Mr.. Jennings, the man vino
carries it all in his head,
can't give a day to help the
news-man through; and
notnlng less VIII 90. We
must let it go.
No loss to us. The store
is as full of buyers as OF I'm.
derwear. What have we 70
gain by crowdings Notning.
Even now it is fair to say
what lies under the surface
just here: You had better
come for urgent things
whatever they are that be-
long to wintry weather.
come in the early cold morn
ings before lazy folks get
out.
What is there to come
for? Whatever you want.
Not whatever you imagine
you want. You often find,
when you so to a frst-rate
collection of anything, no
matter what, that your mo-
tons are wrong. Things
change. What was good
last year is superseded by
something better this year.
You had better come with a
general notion and make il
definite after you see what
is here. Thar is buying 10
diligently.
We are saying that all the
really wanted things are
here. We have to say this
knowing almost nothing
about it. Why do we have
to say itl Because the man
whose business it is to pro-
vide them says they are
here; and the people buying
prove it.
And yet we wish we
could set them out in a row

does he not turn his attention to the
southern States bordering on the At

certainly knows that he has been the
beneficiary OF the Speakers chair tvioe

certainly knows that If fair electiona

seven Republicans instead Of seven

would send five Republicans instead OF
none; that Alabama would send aix

would send seven Republicans out of

divided, and that quite a number mora
Republicans would be elected In other
Southern States Mr. Carlisle Cor
tsiniy knows all this. Hs certainly
knows that he owes the position he no "

twenty years ago such

Speaking in Congress.

The most nervous moment for a new mem
Der of congress is Just before he is to make a
speech. Many of the old members, even, are
seized with. ''stage fright The idea that
the official reporters have ears for the whole
country gives every speaker an uncomfort-
ably large audience. Each man has his pec1nl-
lar way of going about it. You can't tell
when Randall or Morrison are going to speak
until they are pretty well on toward their re-
marks. Morrison always stands for a mo-
ment half way down the second aisle on the
Democratic side, with hands on the desks on
either side. Then he speaks with DELHI.
GRAFTON, always taking two or three steps
toward the speaker when much in ear
nest. He is always socR through. Randall
always speaks from behind his own desk, and
makes no preliminary movement Hewitt is
probably the only other who speaks entirely
without warning. He goes off like powder
ALI an instant. Some members load their
desks for u speech; some load themselves.
Some times three or four desks give warming
of speeches. They are piled up with Con
gressional Records, revised statutes, official
reports, newspaper clippings, and on top OF
all huge rolls of manuscript, These are
always threatening.
Some members of experience put all this
material inside their desks, and look very in
nocent, as il they were not going to say much.
Then they take out a little at a time. There
is a great difference in the bearing of a man
when he is loaded with q speech. Butter
worth, of Ohio, is one of those who limbers
up 20 aspeech. For a few moments before he
begins he seems to be engaged in unla,efng
himself and lirnbering his Joints, asan athlete
who is about'to make a wonderful leap. He
crouehes low in his desk aud waits his chance.
His face ~brightens up, the part gets out of his
hair, and one lock falls down on his forehead.
He stretches out his arms and legs, works his
shoulders to see that every Joint is free, n
when he gets up to speak he is like a willow.
Some members walk two, or three times
past the speakers desk before they try to
catch his eye. Some stand up in their places,
clear their throats several times, pull up their
sleeves, button their cuffs, feel their tie, open
and shat their desks two or three times, and
then walk down the aisle a little way and
say, "Mr. Speaker Some sit and rub their
hands. Others do nothing in particular, but
you can tell they are going to speak by the
nervous Chances they throw up at the speaker.
