tions were as narrow as the hosts liber-
ality was broad. My bed was in the
loft and l reached it by ladder. In
the morning when l had arisen l felt
that little cold water for my hands and
face would not be very unwhclesome,
and as there was none in sight l called
for small boy of the house and he
came to the foot of the ladder. | looked
down through the hole in the floor and
told him what | wanted, and he invited
me out into the yard, where there was
trough full of water and a piece of cof-
fer sack stuff hanging to post for a
towel.
The boy, whose face hadn't been
washed for a month, and whose tow
hair hadn't been combed for a year,
watched my proceedings with interest.
When began to comb my hair with
my pocket comb he felt compelled to
talk.
Do yeI WASH yeI IdCe ever. udf!
"Usually''' | replied with smile.
"An' comb yer hair?"
"Yes, every day."
1t was too much for him, and he was
silent for moment.

PHILADELPHIA. Monday. November IA.

When the Autumn season
opened we announced the
greatest stock of Dress Goods
in any market. The same
statement could have been
truthfully repeated every day
could be intensified Today
at every point.
Advertisements of special.
ties and bargains appear else
where. But they are all
matched and surpassed here
many times over. At your
command to-day in this store
are bargains enough to make
a dozen ordinary stores wild.
Take a single price-thfrty-
scacN and mc-half cents. Over
four hundred styles of Wool
Dress Goods at that price,
nearly all of which were soc. a
yard ten days ago. A walk
through New York stores
three days since showed
scores of the identical goods
paraded as bargains at ftly
cents.
Again at Ilty cents hun
dreds more styles Wool Dress
Goods that Of late were 75c.
and SI.oo.
Truly our task is to get this
store understood.
