APPEL g SCHAUL.

A look through the representative es-
Establishments of Savannah discloses the
fact that there is an extraordinary varie-
ty of new ideas, styles and designs avail
able for wdeawake concerns in almost
every line of business that can be mention
ed. This fact in itself serves to empha-
size the difference of the conditions ex-
isting between those of a few years ago,
and those that prevail this year. And
there is good reason for believing that the
improved condition OF affairs that has
set in will be permanent The introduce
ton of new ideas is on line with the
extension Of facilities of production and
distribution by existing concerns.
A notable step in advance is that of the
wholesale clothing department of the we'll
known firm of Appel & Schaul. For years
they have stood foremost as one of the
leading clothing houses of Savannah, and
through their honest methods of doing bus
mess have gained the confidence of the
entire community. They are famous for
bringing novelties into the trade and at
all seasons of the year the public look
forward to their announcements in the
daily newspapers.
Their reputation for selling the finest
class of clothing and furnishing goods a
the least possible price, is we'll estab-
lished. The pubic appreciate the fact
that when Appel n Schaul mark their
"one price to ALI on their goods, the
plain figures represent a price which
stands in competition with all other
houses.
Since adding a wholesale department
to their establishment, Appel & Schaul
have met with wonderful success. In fact
the business has increased to such an ex-
tent that they have had to use the two
floors over No. 157 Broughton street, in
addition to the large space devoted to
the wholesale department In their main
building.
They have several travelling represen-
tatives on the road continually, who up
hold the principles laid out by the proprie-
tors, and their success Is demonstrated
by the steadily increasing trade They
have the advantage of keeping one of the
members of the firm continually at the
northern markets, and his timely vista
lions with cash to reputable manufac-
turers enables him to make purchases of
seasonable goods at wonderfully low
prices. This enables the firm, in turn.
to give their customers the benefit of the
savings.
Visitors from the country are always in
vited to look over their stock, and the
firm endeavors to please their patrons in
all of their dealings. They are strictly re-
liable, and deserve their pronounced sue
cess in the wholesale clothing business,

one OF them broken, and he finally found
a passenger who said he could give him
five ones.

SHOULD FARMERS BUY COMMERCIAL
eERTll lIERSi

want TO ask few questions through
the Maine Farmer and find, IL can, one
man In the state Of Maine who does any
business at farming without commercial
fertilizers. Can We farm without II as
we did once:
This Is a question we are met with
almost every day. Not long sgo, heard
two prominent farmers arguing the case
in this manner: One said he raised five
acres of potatoes and II took half OF
them 10 pay for fertilizer. Now he
thiaks II he had not bought any fertilizer
and only raised half ~ many he would
have been better of, saving the cost OF
hauling fertilizer and hauling potatoes
10 market. would like TO see this mat
ter discussed through the columns OF the
Maine Farmer, giving the readers all the
information possible. That IL what we
take pspers for. Now let Us hear from
some able pen on this subject. IL Is a
matter OF science TO raise potatoes for =
and 80 cents, aud pay S3i per ton for
superphosphate. Farmers in this section
are talking the matter over with greater
interest than ever before. Some OF them
declare that they will not invest one
dollar 10 fertilizers.
The question, can we farm without
commercial fertilizersy Is a backhanded
way OF inviting discussion OF the prof
its OF their use, yet we would like
our farmers, those who are buying them
aud those who are not, TO give the mat
ter an overhluling. We have no doubt
there Is much money paid out for these
fertilizers on which no profit is realized.
At the same time there are farmers who
are making something from their use.
There Is no doubt but a farmer
can work his business successfully, can
keep UP and even increase the productive
capacity of his acres, without buying
manure. There are many examples TO
prove this. We believe also there are
many farmers who would find IL 10 their
advantage 10 give more attention 10 max
ing home supply aud make less de-
pendence on the purchased material.
There Is vast amount OF money paid
out each year in the state for these
manures. Manufacturers find our state
one OF the best fields for the sale OF these
manures there is in the country. Ger
tainly they are making some money out
OF us-how much are We making out OF
their goods Cor. OF Maine Farmer.

W. D. HowELls ON THE THEATRE

1t will be said by the injudicious that
the theatre Is now what the people wish
it to be, and that they have right to buy
what they wish, there as elsewhere. But
the people do not suffer themselves to
buy what they wish elsewhere, II they
wish evil, and TO say that they had right
TO do so would be TO justify every INFER
nal license and abuse.
For my part believe that the theatres
are largely bad because the managers
think the people want them so, and not
because the people really want them so.
The people take what they can get, and
the managers give them quite empirical
ly this thing or that. But II good thing
finds itself on the stage 1t prospers there
far beyond the evil thing. The Old
Homestead remained two or three years
at one theatre In New York; Shore Acres
is now in Its third year, and the people
are not weary of 1t. What vile play has
held the stage so long AS these charming
and blsmeless thingss What lewd opera
Of those called comic, has ever pleased
so long as Gilbert's pieces, where neither
song, nor dance, nor dialogue Is ever
indecent.
No, beloved, we are not so black as the
fancy Of the playwrights and managers
paints us. The worst Of 1t Is that now,
with the cost of the seats so great as to
be prohibtive, the theatre Is cut off from
the wholesome criticism OF the best oil
the American public, for the best OF the
American public are people who earn
their liyings, and are Of such small In
comes that they cannot afford 10 pay the
theatre prices. Ii Is to luxury, 10 idle
ness, to surfeit, to ennui that the stage
plays now, aud strives to impart new
sensation.
With all our passion for the drama,
the average American cannot go to the
theatre. The average Frenchman can;
the very poorest Frenchman can, for the
French theatres are bound by their
organic law, by their leave from the
state 10 exist, 10 give once n week, or
fortnight, or month, free performance,
which all may see who can get into the
house. Imagine that Actually, II Is as
II a poor cloal -maker or street-sweeper
could see play by Irving or by Hare, or
could find himself spectator In good
seat nj Shakespeare Performance OF
Days or u presentation Of Gilbert
opera, or drama OF Mr.. Herne's, or a
play BY Mr.. Crane and his company. IL
Is hardly imaginable, bat 1t is true--in
Paris.
IL we had one public theatre, or the
control OF the theatres by the Board OF
Education, or II the Board OF Education
wouli authorize free monthly per-
formances OF good plays. as 1t now au-
thorizes the delivery OF free weekly
lectures, the quality OF the drama would
at once improve. The pocket-power
theatres could not then draw with plays
morally and nsthetically inferior. The
old bondage of the stage to what Is worst
in human nature would end, and we
should have free theatre speaking To
