a Triumph in Glove Getting.

A Triumph in Glove Getting.
For twenty years we have been
trying to get a perfect kid glove to
sell at One Dollar. 1t was easy
enough to get better gloves than
were sold generally at that price.
But they were far short of our ideal
of quality or finish. Paris has al
ways beaten US at glove selling.
We had to look to France for the
kid, for the peIt of animals as their
wool is effected by climate. Then
the turning of the skins to glove
leather had to be done in Southern
France, because the water is best
suited to the procesS-aS Philadel-
pfla water is best suited to tanning
shoe leather. That done, we COM
missioned the best glove maker in
the world to make the gloves, and
gave orders great enough to make
surest economy of price.
The Princess May Glove at 81 is
the result. Paris charges 4 francs
80 for equal gloves; American stores

SALEM nomrnArIoss.

The Republicans in Salem have nom
mated q. @. Ballinger for Mayor, OIL.
Jones and Thomas d. Starr for Council
and Elwood Griscom for Freebooter in
the East Ward.
The Prohibitionists have nominated
Robert I. Seagraves for Mayor and
August Opel for City Council.
On Friday night the Democrats in
Salem had a stormy caucus. The old
ringers had decreed, that Jon. w.
Acton, the chief gold bug who helped
smash the party In the County last fall,
while holding the best office In the
county, decreed that he should be re-
nominated. Edward M. Sickler, a
young lawyer, and silver man, threw
down the gauntlet with but two lieu.
tenants and made 1t warm for the old
ring, which have been political traders
when 1t is too their personal advantage.
Acton was nominated by ia votes to
1O3 for Sickler and 6 for Charles s.
Lawson, but with charges Of fraud rest
ing upon it. The battle now goes to
the polls next Tuesday and you may
expect all the arlstocrat, gold bug Re.
publicans to turn In for Mr.. Acton to
return the favor for last falls services,
In helping smash the Democratic party
In the County, of which party he has
formerly had some prestige of being a
leader.
STROLLER, in the South Jerseyman,
says: "Should Mayor Acton be declar-
ed reelected, 1 am told that tile legal.
| ity Of the election will be contested, OH
the ground that the offices of Mayor
(who is a committing magistrate and
justice of the peace er.oticio) and Pros
ecutor OF the pleas are incompatible;
that is, one person cannot hold these
| offices at the same time. A lawyer says
the Supreme Court of this State has so
| decided in the Richard 2. Thompson
case, who was Prosecutor of this coun-
ty and was appointed Attorney-General
at the same time. There is probably
some fun ahead"
To read between the lines one might
infer that the Salem Standard is sup
porting Jon. W. Actor for Mayor and
treating its own party candidate, Mr..
Ballinger, cooliy.

prices. One OF our
ardent copiers has taken the cue.
You'd think February made the
prices. Why in the world don't
people exercise common sense? We
could sell Bedroom Furniture as
cheap in April as in February. We
don't, unless it be of belated lots
bought for February selling.
We sell bedroom furniture cheap
in February because we put the
buying power of the store on that
particular spot of the business-we
simply watch opportunities to place
great orders for February delivery
at prices less than the normal. AS
a rule you save a third to a half.
February doesn't make the prices
we make the prices for February.
They are the same in early March
while lots remain.
That's all. It's simple. But the
plan is not adaptable to many stores
so borrowing the idea with no
chance Of living up to it doesn't
amount to much. Now, does it?

with this he has been troubled more or less

went right to the back, and according to the
varying Of the weather and his work he
would have alternate sharp and du.l pains in
the back. Lifting heavy things or STOPPING
positions caused pain in the back which was
also always stiff in the morning. ! have used
all kinds Of things said he but nothing ever

have completely bauished all my pains.
They deserve the highest praise and are sure
to be a winner when people find out what a

Every steamship Office in the city Is

do not hesitate to pay for passage,

that the vessels now fitting at Sar

not possible for vessels leaving Sar
