WANAMAKER'S
PHILADELPHIA, JUNE 8, 1895

The fifth Summer sale of
Muslin Underwear is in pro.
gress. Wanamaker's June
and January sales Of women's
underwear and wrappers and
infants goods attract country
wide attention. Each recur-
ring sale brings added interest
thro' the larger and more.im-
portant transactions possible
in this growing business-long
without a peer in America.
We are constantly raising, the
standard of excellence; leading
you to expect more and more
of us-and this sale is added
proof that we more than meet
those expectations. The $780,
900 garments ready for this
occasion embrace every proper
grade and the sale appeals to
every woman, no matter how
exacting her tastes; no matter
how slender her purse. The
values are revelations We
have grown to expect follow
ers among the other mer-
chants, but they follow only
the borrowed idea-the stock
we offer being unmatched by
any ever shown in this coun-
try. A partial catalogue sent
on request.

Rev. Mr.. Hulse gave an erudite ad-
dress in which he said the mathemat-
ical idea of reduction was adequate to
success. The process Of evolution is
continually going on. Persons should
behold the entire problem before them.
The unfolding Of the mind and soul of
man In its redolence Is not sudden but
gradual and unseen. IL we wish to
reach The highest ideas VIZ must master
the humblest ideas. All should face
every responsibility and master them.
Resolve them into the units of which
they are composed and study the ele.
ments Of each unit. BY mastering each
separate the whole problem awaits cur
command. In no other way can one
succeed. He gave illustrations of men
who had given years to the solution of
some useful invention.
You must also be active and timely.
DON'T wait for something to turn up
but make the manly resolution that
those things must move. Unless you
face the responsibilities and duties you
cannot fill your place successfully.
There is nothing higher than respecting
your promise and fulfilling your resOlu-
ton. We should never expect to reap
where we have not sown.
s. r. Leap, President of the Board Of

FISHING NOTES.

Herring are plentiful and are being
caught in large numbers.
Shad fishermen have caught from 25
to 40 this week and sold them for $15
per 100.
The sturgeon fishermen had a good
catch last week and this and the pros
poets are that they will have a very pro-
litable season.
Shad fishing is practically at a close
although the law allows fishing until
June 18th. The season has been a lit
tie better than last year. From 1900
to 5000 shad were caught to a net in
the Bay and from 5000 to 5000 at
Penn's Grove. The catch Is about
twice as great as last year but the aver.
age price is about half what it was last
year. Last year the average was about
$21 per 100. This year it is about $40
in the Bay and about Sill in the River.
The gross amount received is from $500
to 5000 in the Bay to a net where in
years past it use to be from 5000 to ST.
900. The amount received in the Riv.
er is from $500 to $3.50. The Bay fish.
ermen will not do as we'll proportional.
ly as the River fishermen because they
are under heavier expense and the
freights were raised this year.
Denny Bros. who carry the shad and
the sales men will make a big season
because they are paid so much per shad
instead of a percentage. The statesmen
profits will amount to about 20 per cent.
for selling as they get 2 cents per shad.
Fish from all other places sold in Phil.
adelphia are sold for 10 per cent. Farm.
ers' produce is sold for 8 per cent.
On the whole the season has been a
fair m as those fishermen who did SO
poorly last year kept some of their net
over and did not go to such large ex.
pense.
