til it has assumed proportions which
make it rank with the best of similar es-
adjustments in Pittsburg, Buffalo and
Cleveland. a specially is made of furn-
ishing houses complete. from cellar to
garret and there is no artic used in
housekeeping that cannot be found in
this mammoth store.

ried life.

helper in all manufacturing enterprises

Editorial Association TO Washington, D.
c., last week was voted complete sue
cess by those in attenuance, about 200 of
the membership. Everything connected
with the outing was fine, not the least of
which was the courtesies extended by the
Pennsylvania Railroad Co. At Wash
ington it was sort of go-as-you-plea
affair, little attention being pal to pro-
gram arrangements, which gave every
body chance to visit the places most
suited to their tastes, and there Is no
taste that cannot be fully satisfied in t
magnificent city. The departmental
buildings, the National Museum, Smith
sonion Institute, the White House,
Washington Monument, and the new Ii
brary building-the loviest in all the
world, to say nothing of the many beau
tiful parks, make Washington the most
interesting, and as it soon will be the
most beautiful, city on the globe. Then
the trip kown the broad Patomic to his
toric Alexandria, Arlington Heights and
Mt. Vernon is one which the tourist will
never forget.
