keeps the factories and the stores going,
and pays the wages"
BIG AND LITTLE FISH.
How about the department stores, Mr..
Wanamaker, and the charge that they are
running the smaller merchants out of BUSH
ness?''
Il don't regard my store as a department
store,'' was the reply. "A department store,
1 take it, is an overgrown country store,
where you can get small and cheap as
sortment Of great many different kinds of
articles. You may be able to get suit Of
clothes, but you must not be particular as
to the cut or the quality of your goods, for
you are restricted to what the man has
on hand. We have no such store here. This
is an aggregation of large stores. We have
a book store, for instance, which is as large
and complete as any in the country. We aim
to keep everything that is published. We
have one of the largest shoe stores in the
city 1t is the same with clothing and other
things
Now. as to such stores running other
people out of business Mr. Wanamaker
went on, ST have often heard that charge.
! don't believe it is true to anything like
the extent that is generally believed. There
are more licenses to sell goods given out
now in Philadelphia than ever before, and
there are, you know other stores of the
same nature as mine in the city. The
trouble with the men who have gone out
of business is that they have been working
upon wrong lines. They were afflicted
with the dry rot, and they would have
played out sooner or later. Besides, it is
a question of the greatest good to the
greatest number If 1 can see my way to
benefiting thousands by selling goods
cheaper and at the same time make a
profit, is it my duty to refuse to do so be-
case some half dozen men will be affected
by my competition? Take the Baldwin
locomotive works, for instance. AT first
their large and complete establishment
must have hurt the other workers in iron,
but by their cheap and excellent locomo-
tives travel has been extended where it
could not be extended before. New rail-
ways have been built and the great public
has been enriched

Lake George was visited by large

Frank Penney's horse was frightened
at Lake George recently by the barking
of dog and he held him by the bits till
he was obliged to let go. The horse
ran home a mile and half distant
breaking both thills. Dogs barking and
frightening horses should be learned
