The LabOrers at the White City.
 By Mrs I. M, Sharpel

Laborers of the hour and day
 Thy white winged temples of the clay,- Ye. that from across the sea and dune Yea, from the distant foreign lands Come with the distaff, and the spindle rune,- From dome to center-Labor stands: Mans ideas, great temples risen,
 Sun kissed, white robed dove;
 Freedoms stars shall shine above. Join us Peace across the sea,
 The prairies wide our liberty,
 bear us on triumphantly, That which hath wrought.
 For nought hath set the bounds
 Within the kingdom, labor crowns.

at prices away below value.

In pursuance of our invari- able custom never to carry made up garments from one season to another, we now make this sale, although the stock is full in as- sortments of the very latest styles of the season, complete in colors and sizes
 The sale is made earlier than would be otherwise necessary, because we need the room to make contemplated repairs, con sequently the jackets and capes must go just at the time when they are in the greatest demand,
 While the advantage is large for buyers, it is believed that our own interest will also be ultimately served even in this considerable loss.
 Great activity and prompt dis tribution must result from the above offering, and prompt at. tention is therefore advised.
