Although his clothes are torn.

And waited for a grOan;
But how he laughed Do you suppose

There's sunshine in each word he speaks,
His laugh is something grand;
It's ripples Overrun his cheeks
Like waves on snowy sand.
He laughs the moment he awakes,
And till the day is done;
The schoOlrOOm FOR joke he takes,
His lessons are but fun.

You cannot make him cry;

The suspension of DR.. Briggs from
the ministry of the Presbyterian Church
is the logical outcome of the declara-

trine contrary TO Presbyterianism In
declaring that his views are heretical,
the General Assembly declares that It
is no longer at one with the New
York Presbytery, which body supported
the defendant. The natural sequency
Of the trial, therefore, would appear

Philadelphia, Friday, June ?, 1893.
The weather to-day is likely
to be clear.

The month of May-our
month of May-stepped out
as merrily as she STEPPED in.
The sales show larger gains in
dollars than ever made in any
preceding May.
This success makes June
open with the ring of a great
Trade Movement. The PROM
inent feature of the day and
month will be the third annual
Summer sale of Muslin
Underwear.
Twice a year we make these
great sales. The methods are
figured down to an exact
science. This time bigger
plans ,and larger stocks will
produce greater sales. The
stuff accumulated for this
occasion numbers over
-Four Hundred Thousand
Garments.
The prices are for this
month only and are less than
can be named again this year.
Possibly they can be matched
next January. They will not
be touched before.
Thoroughness and care have
marked every detail of prepara-
tion. Poor making, mean
embroideries, flimsy materials
have no place in even the
lowest priced ofthese garments.
The great Underwear store,
First Gallery, Second Floor.
The little French store.
The Chestnut street entrance
Arcade.
The Centre Aisle, Market
street.
The Bargain Exchange.
Have all been filled with
the goods of this sale. Over
one hundred salespersons with
an ample force of Managers,
Inspectors, Wrappers and
Cashiers have been organized
for prompt and efficient ser
vice.
You are therefore invited to
the largest special sale Of
Muslin Underwear ever under
taken by American store.
