Folks don't stop to ''haggle and dig ger" over the price at this store when they have found what they wanted They know that the price asked is the lowest price possible for that shoe to be obtained at-lower than would be possible anywhere else.
 Shopping under these circumstances is pleasant-a child could buy to as good advantage as the parent. One quality-the best; One price-the lowest.

SAMUEL FRANCIS SMITH.

among them one, THE morning light is
breaking" which every adult American
who was the child of pious parents
knows by heart. That hymn and
America DR. Smith wrote while he
was a theological student in Andover.
All his life he was a copious writer and
translator, and it is interesting to know
that he was q remarkable linguist and
master-or student at least-of not less
than fifteen languages. After he grad
uated from the seminary at Andover he
became a Baptist minister, had church
in Waterville, Me, and was at the same
time professor of foreign languages in
WatervilIe college now Colby univer-
sity. In 1912 he came to Newton, Mas
sachusetts, as pastor of church there,
and for time edited the Christian
Register. One of his distinctions was
his membership of the famous Harvard
class of 1929, reduced now to three sur
viving members. II was as a 80 man
that Holmes wreIe of him in lines
that have appeared in all OF his ohit-
uaries:
'And there's a nice youBsster Of excel
lent pith=
Fate tried to conceal him by calling
him Smith:
But he shouted song. for the brave
and the free
Just read on his medal. My Country,
of Thee"
1t may perhaps be said that his great
ness was thrust upon him. but it should
be added that his merits we're equal to
his fame, that his fenown became him,
and that he never found any trouble in
living modestly up 10 his reputation.
He was Christian in all that the
word implies.

AS the girl stepped out of her bath
again Mrs. Garrett was much satisfied
with the result of her labor. The fair
skin was still sadly disfgured by the
bruises and the marks of half-healed
sores; but it was as white as milk, and
her tangled hair, thoroughly cleansed
from the burden of mother earth it had
carried about with it. and well brushed
and combed, was transformed into
thick name of fiaxen curls, which only
required attention to render them as
glossy and soft as silk.

on her breast.

Lady Wilken, the lord mayoress OF

complishments, of a warm and gen.

retiring disposition, she does not look
forward with unmiXed pleasure to her
forthcoming reign in the Mansion
House, which probably accounts for her
determination to postpone the event I'M

which time she will continue to occupy
the charming and perfectly appointed
mansion in Gloucester Square, Hyde
Park. 1t may be confidently stated,
however, that when she does appear in

tiers of cracker boxes, the oblong wooden

these much used little biscuits. I have
been in the habit of buying crackers there
freely, rather liking the easy choice afford
ed by this open display, but one evening
halted at the store after dinner and found
the clerk sweeping. There was cloud of
dust, and the smells which were arising
from bits Of decayed vegetables and the
like unearthed by the broom were not
pleasant, but what really Mortified me was
to see that the long array of cracker boxes
was uncovered. I have never ordered crack
