does not suit the monometallsts and
they will not agree to putting silver

prior to Republican ascendeney to

PHILADELPHIA. Monday. Aug. as 1898.

In cities of the United
States the consolidation of
many classes of business
originated with the head of
this firm, who introduced
the system now SO common
and inaugurated the new
methods of
Practically unlimited ex.
change of goods-even
cut pieces of costly Silks
and Velvets.
Cash refunded, unques,
toned, for articles re.
turned.
The extension of the in.
flexible rule of ONE
PRICE to all alike, for all
classes of merchandise.
These innovations of trade
are referred to to-day, not
only as q matter of history,
but to say that we have
more confidence than ever
in the wisdom of the unal.
Itering principles that this
store is working under, and
more certainly than ever that
the public is advantaged
Thereby.
No man is the only wise
man in the world, and no
store is the only perfect store
in the city. We are simply
reaching toward perfection
in business methods; not
expecting to reach the goal
by chance, but by doing
things in the proper way and
at the proper time. .."

Rev. q. L. Hubbard delivered q stir
ring sermon In Union nj. e. Church ON
Sunday morning from the Goth Psalm,
which was written by Moses. Lord,
though hast been our dwelling place
In all generations"
In his opening remarks he referred
to tho creation OF the earth, the bird !.
the fishes, the beasts, followed by the
creation OF man and woman whomwere
he given home in the garden of Eden
but they were such fools that they
could not keep 1t, and they were turned
out, aud since that time they have not
had any permanent abiding place, and
never will have on this earth.
Hence, we should prepare for a
homo In Heaven. He alluded to the
dissatisfied disposition OF most peo-
pie, the wanderlngs of the children OF
Israel In the wilderness, and the pro-
vision OF the cloud under whose
shadow they marched by day and were
guided by tho pillar of fire by night.
He thought 1t would have done them
good to shift for themselves. A little
disciplining was calculated to do dis
contented people good. God, however,
did everything In the best style; q Sec
ond trial would be no Improvement.
/ The great need in this life 10 food
and clothing. The possession Of
millions ia of no real advantage. He
spoke of the prayer for our daily bread
which was appropriate. as all things
belong to the Lord. distinguished
preacher, who had more sense in ten
. minutes than he had In life time,
showed his foollshness by saying II
was folly for the farmers, whose barns
were bursting with grain, to ask God
l to give them their daily bread. They
were equally dependent with other
men, as by stroke OF lightning al
could ea consumed.
He spoke of our homo in Christ, and
, contended that all who are In Christ Of
God can never die; the body might die
: but the spirit would live forever. lie
spoke OF the affection of mothers fol
, their children and illustrated by re-
ferring to cat that mourned for hel
