We buy by the carload, pay
less for freight, get very lowest
prices from manufacturers, who
of course would rather supply
seven stores at once than have
seven distinct orders at different
points. We get way down prices
that the ordinary retailer cannot
get. 1t stands to reason, no man
expects to pay as much per pound
for his -four by the barrel as he
does by the single pound, nor as
much for a single barrel as for
carload. Ponder over these
things. Come to the Headquar-

ECoNoMIzlNG HEAT.

Among the devices and inventions
for the promotion of comfort in temper
ature and eheapness in fuel. compare
lively little progress has been made in
the economies of heat producers. A
very large element of fuel in the ordi-
nary stoves and furnaces passes up the
chimney or goes to the ash pile, and of
the heat evolved a considerable portion
passes off without advancing its proper
mission. A recent paper by a scien-
tific authority estimates the wastage of
heat as high as so to 80 per cent. The
writer insisted that one of the problems
pressing for solution was the most ef-
feetiye means for averting this loss.
More perfect combustion of fuel is
needed, and appliances to utilize the
heat produced. The economical philos-
ophers and inventors can prO6tably
employ their minds in the solution of
these questions.

Secretary Tallmadge. of the chamber
OF commerce, was again called upon te
play the part of Samaritan to suffering

their mother, Charles Steward, the hus.
band and father, and mis- father. a bent

Old. They are refugees from the star.

yeied by wagon the entire dis
lance from the region above

situated. All that is irft of the onct
prosperous homestead; three horses,
two COWS and two wagons they drove
down by road. Sundry other farm
furnishings are at the Union depot,
with freight charges of $40 against them.
Steward says he is skilled blacksmith,
and will be able to support all his de.

entirely destitute when the at

support of the public schools In the be-
lief that even universal secular educa-
ton promoted the welfare of the state.
There were only two incidents OF the
Baltimore congress which evoked adj
verse criticism, and as they were the
expressions of individuals and not OF
the congress, they scarcely merited the
attention that has been given to them
by the critics. We refer to the speeches
made by DANIEL DoUGHERTY and
CHARLES JEROME BoNAPARTE. Mr.
DoUGHERTY's morbid retrospect of
Catholic persecution in the colonial
days was entirely out of place in such
an Acknowledgements much SO as If some
orator would get up in an Episcopal
council or a Presbyterian assembly
and dwell at length upon the horrors OF
the Spanish inqulSition. What MIR.
DOUGHERTY said was true, but there
are occasions when 1t is not necessary
tn reSurreet the truth. The Catholics
were not the only ones who suffered per-
SecutiOn i'm colonial times. Those were
days when innocent persons were con-
demned to death for impossible crimes.
1t was dark chapter i'll American his
tory, but this generation was not re-
Sponsible for it. SO what is the use of
reSurrecting dead past that ought to
he forgotten? The remark which Mr..
BONAPARTE has been criticised for
making was the following language in
the speech he made before the con-
gress: 1.-THE pope may be a captive or
an exile, but a subject never" This
has been construed by some into an at
tempted American interference with
Italian affairs, and by others into an as
surance To his holiness that the tenn
pOral power of the Vatican can be trans
ferred TO American soil. where its indie
pendence will be maintained. 1t should
be remembered, however, that Mr..
BoNAPARTE spoke for himself, and not
for the congress, and it makes but little
difference what his individual opinions
may be.
Upon the whole, the results of the
congress will be for good. A great deal
has been done towards breaking down
the barrier wall Of prejudice between
the Catholic and non-CathOlic commune
ties. Henceforth more liberal views
will prevail. 1t has been step. and
long one, i'm bringing the Christian
world into a common brotherhood.
