thankfulness at seeing large coAgrega.
tions in attendance upon public worship,
but could not but feel at the same time
sad and anxious about many who seem
TO be so utterly oblivious of the responsi.
bilities attaching to such attendance. not
that they would be free from response
bility by not attending, indeed that
would only increase their guilt but be-
cause of only attending and only hearing
the word without doing what they at
tended to hear, they were showing their
utter ignorance of their spiritual needs
and of the real means of enjoying aud
prohting by what they heard.
In conclusion the bishop referred to
the days when special praye will be
used for the first time
This was the second visit Of the bishor
to st. Michael's for the purpose of con
iirming.

INSTALMENT HOUSE.

payments. Not the install
ment business that you have
known years ago of paying
double for goods, simply be-
cause you could not pay at
once. Not the instalment
business of INSCRIPTIONS
dealers who make you pay
for what some one does not,
but we are in the instalment
business on a strictly cash
basis, giving you good, honest
goods at a fair profit and your
own time to paw for them in.
We claim to sell as low, if not
lower, than so-called strictly
cash houses and can substan-
tiate our claims. If you COM
pare our goods and prices you
yourself will back us up in
our assertions. In the first
place we would like to have
your confidence. You can
depend on anything we tell
you about our goods, if not,
bring them back, exchange
them, or get your money
back. That is a fair offer.
If our goods were not up to
the standard in quality and
way down in price we could
not make it. In the first
place we carry complete line
of everything needful for man,
woman or child. Our Cloth
ing Department is a complete
store in itself. In it you will
find everything in that line
and all of this spring manu-
facture from the best houses
in the country. For men we
have Tricot Suits, Cutaways
and Sacks ; Clay Diagonals,
Getaways, Sacks and Prince
Alberts Hard Twill Diagon-
ais, Cutaways, Sacks and
Prince Alberts. Cashmere
Suits in endless variety.
Homespuns, Cheviots, and
Union Cashmeres, and odd
pants in every conceivable
grade and pattern, and at
prices that are always the
lowest.
For boys we have the
most complete line to be
found in this city, and we are
especially fixed for little boys.
We have the Never Rip and
Rough and Tumble, so
famous throughout the
country for their durability
and sightlyness, and hundreds
of other things in the clothing
line. Our Dry Goods De
partment is equal to any in
the city, always up TO date
with the latest patterns and
styles. Our buyer in this de-
partment has had years of ex-
perience and certainly shows
good taste in securing the
latest spring novelties in
dress goods, trimmings, etc.
Piece goods, and Ready-Made
Dresses, Coats, Capes, Hats
Shoes and Underwear,
Hosiery, Gloves, Parasols,
Umbrellas, and in fact every.
thing that a lady could wish
for in a frst-class dry goods
house. We would like to call
your special attention to oul
Furniture Department, which
has no equal in the city, both
for variety and price. To be
sure we do not carry Ioc
bed room suits of a kind, but
we have lots of different kinds
and can furnish you with one
or a dozen. We buy direct
from the factory and can Offer
you as big an inducement as
the largest houses in the
country. Just take a look al
that Solid Oak Bedroom
Suit, strongly made, beautiful
ly carved, with seven pieces
for $40, and see if you car
duplicate it anywhere else.
