The Question of Cash.

Whether we pay cash or pay on time is
OF vital interest to those whose incomes
are, 10 Il certain extent, limited. A monthly
or bi-monthly stipend has to be carefully
meted out these times to meet the needs
for the time intervening. In every family
there are little incidentals OF expenditure
crop up, which were unlocked for, and Il
lump sum taken out of a months salary
makes Il big hole in il. The cash or credit
system of Messrs. Mayer & Petit, of 415
Seventh street, places service OF accom-
mediation within the reach OF all. If a
new suit be needed for man or boy, or
suits or wraps for ladies are desired, all
can be obtained from this reliable firm
upon the most easy and confidential methed
OF payment. This is a great boon to
those whose wages come far apart, and
an accommodation appreciated and availed
of by thousands of people in Washington.
Again, the clothing Offered i S of the fine st
and Ost stylish '.get up" Elegant
capes, just fit for the season; beautiful
skirts of dainty and scrviccable materials,
OF latest cut. Mems and boys clothing
receive the same careful attention by this
firm, and are sold just as cheap. perhaps
cheaper, than other firms sell for cash.
We certainly say, when you get firm of
thorough reliability, upon whom you csIa
depend, like Mayer & Petit. that the ac
commodations offered in the credit sys.
tenn by them is certainly a great matter
when dollars and dents are expected to go

Two Thousand Fire Alarm Keys.

There have been issued to policemen,
firemen, government watchmen, officials
and citizeus at least 2, coo keys to the street
fire alarm boxes, and Chief Joseph Paris
of the Washington fire department has
made an important recommendation in
reference to those keys. 1t is that small
pamphlets or cards be furnished each key
holder containing instructions for using the
keys, how to turn in an alarm and the ex-
piicit request that the person turning in
for the fire department remain at the box
to direct the engines or trucks to the scene
of corflagration, which is often several
blocks from the alarm box.
