the atoms of sand that one Is constant

OF stimulant to sustain the heat ana

frequent drafts of beer and the same

The New York Press says: THAT al

Griggs was alleged to have surrounded
himself while in the Office of the executive
of this State never has been found any
where in his vicinity as the Attorney
General of the United States. Mr.. Griggs
always was approachable to real friends;
he had no use for assumed friends, and
being no hypocrite. he did not hesitate to
freeze those who smiled in his face while
they fondled the daggers in their sleeves
In Washington he became open, free, in

Jealous foes and the real sunshine in his
life came to the surface. A Washington
correspondent says: Mr. Griggs is the
most popular man in the Cabinet, and no
one who knows this statesman's nature
can doubt the assertion" Perhaps this is
all due to the fine climate of Washington,
which is said to have mellowing inhu-

Carpets


We are coming to the close
of the largest years business
we have ever known.
In fact, take our two stores
together, there is only one
other concern doing SO much,
and that concern is not in
Philadelphia.
What does this mean ex-
cept that we have given better
service than any other concern
in this city, and are in a posi-
ton to do it for the coming
year,
A large business can buy at
smaller prices than smaller
business; can buy a large bar
gain, when it comes around,
at the smallest possible price;
can carry a greater variety
than a small business; can
import direct and get what it
chooses-not what importers
happen to think is good.
For example, in our Japan
csc and Chinese mattings,
which we get straight from
Japan and China; and the
Oriental rugs, which our buyer
picks out in Constantinople
and London-two of the great
est rug markets in the world.
1t means, besides, that the
makers come to us first be-
cause we are the largest Gus
toners and offer us first choice
of their goods.
We buy certain patterns
and control them-in the finer
Administers and Wiltons-and
the next largest buyer can buy
the next best pattern, and,
Gf he buys enough) can con-
troll them.
But what has made us big?
This: we don't represent
any particular factory or num-
Der of factories; we don't
speculate on carpets-buy low
and sell high-we represent
nothing but our customers
interests and our own, and we
protect both faithfully, for they
belong together.
There are no tricks in our
trade, we don't mark up and
then mark down-ridiculous
of us to say this, if it were not
done in this very city!
We have let the daylight
into more businesses than one
Ito our own advantage as
well as yours.
