The average man knows
nothing about fitting up stores
until he gets half through
the work; the thing looks
easy enough when the de-
signs are carefully drawn on
paper and everything appears
to fit to a nicely. But when
the men get at it and have
open instructions to make an
excellent job they are work
ing by the day., it is differ
ent and every moment
counts.
We had expected to show
you on the 18th the grandest
array of goods for the home
that you ever saw, but there
was the elevator to place and
the solid oak counters to
polish and offices to get into
shape. To do it all and have
it done with the same care
and attention to detail by
the 18th was out of the
question. The men have
worked harder than if they
had been doing it under con-
tract, but the job could not
be done.
Monday, the 18TH, is now
set for the opening day. All
the cheap goods we have
written about will then be
ready for your inspection.
The crockery will be there in
a position that is bound to
catch your eye whether you
want to see it or not. Stoves
such as you never imagined
and at prices that will as
found you will have your
attention. AndSoWill every
thing else. Saucepans, fol-
instance; a small item witt
us, but the one you pay
$I.75 for in other establish
ments, we sell you at Clio
and make a profit.
1t is the same with every
thing else as with sauCepanS
Remember, Monday, the
18th, is the day the store will
be open. You have an in
| Vitation to call.

Rank(in) Gold Bug Argument.
If there is any more ignorance
in one part of the plutocratic
outfit than another it is found in
their daily press. Next in density
come the business men who fancy
because they read the News Tri-
bune and republican campaign
documents of like kidney, that
they are posted on "feenaunce."
Only a little behind come the re-
publican stumpers, though these
fellows have studied the art of
discrimination until it is hard to
tell whether their misrepresenta-
tions and "crooked' logic are
the result of ignorance or inten-
tional deception. They can con-
struct an argument just as log
ically as anybody, and then at
the critical point in the evidence,
with an innocence staggering to
ones faith in humanity, CONTRA
dict, misstate orleave out the fact
most vital to the right conclu-
sion. If artistic lying requires
more ability than truth telling,
these fellows are surely earning
monster salaries. Whether they
are getting them or not is an
other thing. From the nature
of things liars can't organize to
keep up wages. And then there
are SO many fools ready to do
for nothing what plutocracy
would be willing to pay them
for with big salaries. We sus-
pect the amateurs are running
the business.

This reminds us of the fake
molder orator, Rankin. He
dwelt forcib1y on the fact that up
to '73 only a little more than
$8,O0O,000 in silver were coined
by the United States minis, and
threfr0m drew the conclusion
that silver never was a factor to
speak of in our finances. He
conveniently forgot the silver of
foreign coinage, made legal ten
der by Uncle Sam, the circulation
of which amounted to many
times the total coinage by our
own mintS.

A cent is the 1OOdth part of
dollar. Now let the "moldy" or
ator, who evidently never has
grasped a rational conception of
a measure of value, take a piece
of elastic foot long and with a
standard measure of length
mark it off into inches. BY
stretching the elasctic now he
can vary it's length from ~ to,
let us say, "a inches. The
stretching process, it is true,
does not increase the number of
divisions into which the elastic's
length has been divided. Yet,
each of these divisions, measured
by correct standard, at one
time may be one inch long and
at another two. Would not the
man either be an imbecile or a
liar who would say that, because
the number of divisions into
which it was marked had not
been increased, the rubber was
no longer stretched to "a inches
than at II? What shall we say
then of the man who argues that
because the dollar always equals
100 cents-that is, 100 per cent
of itse1Ethat it's value, there
fore, never varies?

Rankin's claim to the title,

puted. There's no question,
though, about his reputation and
argument both being 'mo1dy.'

Glasgow In the Last Century.

Though still only quiet, but pic
turesque old place, Nesting about the
cathedral and the college, and two fine
but sleepy streets, in which carriers
build their haystacks out before their
doors, it was carrying on trade which
was even then cosmopolitan. The ships
of Glasgow were in all the waters Of
tho world, and its merchants had won
the lead in at least one important branch
Of commerce, the West India tobacco
trade, and were founding industries every
year. Before the middle Of the century
the Clyde had become the chief Euro
pean emporium for American tobacco,
which foreign countries were not then
allowed to import directly, and three
fourths of the tobacco was Immediately
ON arrival transhipped by the Glasgow
merchants for the seaports Of the Medi-
terranean, the Baltic and the North sea-
AS they widened their connections
abroad they naturally developed their
industries at home. They founded the
Smithfield Iron works, and imported
iron from Russia and Sweden to make
hoes and spades for the negroes of Mary
land. They founded the Glasgow tan
merry in i742. which Pennant thought
m amazing sight, and where they en-
ployed 300 men making saddles and
shoes for the plantations. They opened
the Pollokshaws linen print field in
l742, copper and tin works in 1747,
the Delffield pottery in l74S. They be-
gan to manufacture carpets and Grape
in 1859, silk in 1869 and leather gloves
in 1868. They opened the first Glasgow
bank-the Ship-in 1850, and the sec
ond-the Arms-in 1864. They first
began to improve the navigation Of the
Clyde by the act of 1859. They built a
dry dock at their harbor Of Port Glas-
gov in 1762, while in 1868 they deep
ened the Clyde up to the city, aud be-
gan the canal to the Forth for their
trade with the Baltic. 1t was obvious
therefore that this was period of
unique commercial expansion. n.-"Life

"The First Lady In the Land"
Mrs. William Mckinley, who may be
'the first lady In the land" was Miss
Ida Saxton, the daughter of James A.
Saxton, banker and one of the
wealthiest and most prominent men In
the country around Canton, Ohio. 1t
was In 1866 that Major Mckinley, then
a STRIPPING of soldier, went to Can
ton to visit his relatives and met and
loved Miss Saxton. The bankers daugh.
ter was at that time only a school girl,
and the young soldier was perforce re-
qulred to contain himself. Besides, he
had no money, and the young lady's
family was immensely rich. He de-
parted, but only after telling her his
mind. A few years later he returned
to the attack, and his good star went
with him. For, although he was only
struggling lawyer, and was fighting
many gallant fellows, who were sultors
for the hand of Miss Saxton, now
grown into beautiful young woman,
Mr.. Saxton favored the plucky young
attorney who, to his keen eye, was rich
in all but money. They were married

FRlGATE CONSTITUTION.
The Old Defender Enjoying Desuetude In
Deserted Navy Yard.

Deserted Navy Yard.
The venerable old frigate Constitu-
tion, of glorious memory, now lies,
stark and gaunt, at the dock in the al
most deserted navy yard at Kittery,
Me. She is housed in, and with her old
fashioned lines, her sides "tumbling
home," as it is said when they incline
inward, her stern gallery, in which her
captains were wont to take the air and
their pipes and barrxck in pleasant
weather, she presents a quaint sight.
OF the original ship only small Sec
ton of the deck and q few iron STAN
chions remain.
But she was rebuilt much upon her
original lines in 1848 and 1876, first
by the son and again by the grandson
Of Hart, her original builder, SO that
she is practically the same ship which
outsailed Admiral Brooke's squadron
and outfought everything at which she
backed her topsails. The Portsmouth
people regard her as their own individ-
ual property and raise an awful howl
every time it is proposed to take her
away. 1t was, however, mere accident
that she happened to 90 out of commits
sion at Kittery navy yard about 10
years ago, and the navy then being in
the chaotic state which preceded the
creation of the new navy she simply
was allowed to remain there. Her guns
were of no use and of no historic value,
as those with which she had walloped
the Guerriere, the Java, the Cyane and
the Levant had long gone the way OF
destruction. So her armament was re-
moved and everything else Of value.
She was housed in and left to her fate.
Her planking is decaying, but as long
as her stout timbers stay in the water
they will keep as hard as iron.
It is thought that some time 1.-The
next few years the Constitution will be
refitted like the Constellation and made
into a training ship for boys also. Like
the Constellation, she has never had
steam in her, but when she has been
rigged with great square sails and given
O spread of canvas worthy of her she
has been known to leg it at Ia knot
gait during the best part of cruise.
These two frigates are the sole survival
of the great frigates Of tho "poetic
age" of the navy, and not all the steel
battleships going can altogether deprive
them of their usefulness. The Kittery
navy yard is as dead rs Hector for the
present. The people grumble at it and
complain because the modern steel ships
are not built or even repaired there. -

There can be no hope apparently Of

power, in that spirit Of thoroughgoing
intellectual honesty Of which Huxley is
truly said to have been an illustrious ex-
ample. That We are made and intended
to pursue knowledge is as certain as
that we are made and intended to strive
for the improvement Of our estate. and
