A TREMENDOUS
SACRIFICE OF CHINA, GLASS
AND NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

The like can hardly be expected to
occur again. The can't-bc-helped de-
mands of the workmen who are
adding the new building to the old,

roof to introduce > more huge passen-
GER elevators, have nearly squeezed
the China, Glass and IIOuseturnishlngs
dcpartments out of existence.
Therefore, to save further wrcckage
and breakagc, we've put farewell prices
on all of the goods underneath.

teresting stories about one OF another
''curious incident" which stories al
ways end in some humbug advertise

knows whether he can spenu time in

which such practices are being carried
would seem to call for a law to sup
press the use of the public prints for
purposes of deception, for what bet
