Mattings and Fibre Rugs
The new nattings from
China and Japan are here,
ready to make your homes
cool and delightful for the
summer.
More and better than ever
before, Last year we had two
hundred and thirty-fve pat
terms; this year, three hundred
and twenty nine. Twenty
seven different prices, S. to
S25 for forty-yard rolls.
Great as a shoW-come, see
it; a native Chinaman will tell
you all about them.
But greater to buy-and
this is why:
Way back in March 1899
we ordered these 1900 mat
tings. Selected the patterns
changed them when we
thought you'd like the change.
This direct importation en-
ables US to sell more mattings
than anybody else, because we
can buy cheaper and better.
1t brings China and japan
to Philadelphia.
The other way of buying
mattings is through a general
importer. If the store finds
what it wants, all right; if il
doesn't, it takes what it can
get, and tries to make you be
lieve it is what you want.
Maybe it is, and maybe it
isn't.
Besides you pay, that way,
profit-the importers.
And you are never sure you
are getting this years mat
ting, last years or the year
before-the store that sells it,
isn't sure. And old mating
is dried out and cracks easily.

The WAY Ofthe World.

Speaking at Marion, Ind. Mr.. Bryan
read clipping which stated that Rev.
DR.. Jennings, i'll his financial report of
the Western Methodist Book Concern.
ut Cincinnati, made to the Ohio Confer
ence, declared that the White Paper
Trust had increased the price of paper
used by the Methodist publishing house
at Cincinnati SI0,0 in the last u
months.
Mr.. Bryan tnrned this into trust tax
of over 100000 imposed upon religious
literature.
Leaving that point to him, however,
there was man i'll the JOURNAL office
Tuesday afternoon who thought, not
withstanding the trust tax imposed upon
paper, that the JOURNAL should be
printed for 81 year, the same as in
ferior papers.
Strange to say, he acknowledged the
great papers vast pre-eminence i'll quail
ity, but somehow couldn't see why an
endowment incalculable in dollars and
cents should become reason for exact
ing more per dn,,"m than do the second
and third-raters.
This man, too, is not only enjoying an
advance of 10 cents per ton wages, but
thought and still thinks he should have
cents more.
Isn't supremacy selfish human nature
awfully hoggish?

ing ones-that is, Judging from the re-
port given the JOURNAL by one of II
chance meeting in IL town store Wcdues-
day evening, where and when the ac-
count was reviewed
One gentleman called attention to
this:
They (mayor and councilmen found that
there were some of the springs that the town
owns that looses ger bdtint) good deal of
water, and that this waste is caused by the
pipes having been placed too high when they
were built.
"Now, why" asked No. I, did not
the mayor and councilmen find this ont
before spending thousands of dollars i'll
boring wells -
Another noted this:
They also found that great deal of the
rumors Get Werdtun) of so much water going
to waste was groundless as II good pant of the
waste comes from the creek and not from
springs and none of our citizens desire to
have our water supply contaminated by creek
water.
Then No. . aSked-"why didn't they
find that ont before boring the soda

But the JOURNAL wants to remark
here that, practically, the mayor and

That is, i'll arresting the lost spring
water, it is not necessary to excavate Il
reservoir in he bed IF he creek. Within
less than one-eighth of il mile from the
springs the waste water is spring water
water that is running III vigorous flow
Th"n Hc crcck is dry, That this water
cannot be taken without including creek
water, or that anybody wants to take the
creek water also, is mere pretense.
Next and last, No. read this:
To obtain these conveniences (creek water
and all the other waters, in the vicinity ap-
pears impossible at the present time on ac-
count of finances and lateness of the season.
The water supply in the reservoir is gradual
ly increasing from day TO day, so that for the
present season the worst of the famine ap-
pears to be over.
The comment upon this was-"thc
mayor and councilmen aye making for
themselves a virtue Of the goodness of
the Lord. Some people would call it
pleading the baby act, because if they
had done their duty in the first place
there never would have been any cause
to bore those wells"
The store meeting worked the matter
uppretty well, for the whole of the Forum

School ODeninG,

The night school under the auspices of
the Central Commercial College, Cum
berland, Md, opened at the Gladstone
annex, Monday.
a large number of young people We're
i'll attendance, IA goodly portion of whom
registered us students.
Principal Presho, of the College, ac-
companied the instructor in charge,
Prof. A. w. Straub, and assisted in the
opening. While the registration was
gratifying for the first night, yet it is
far short of what it should be in a town
like Frostburg.
In this connection correspondent
writes:
Exceptional advantages are offered by this
well and favorably known college, as its in
structors are experts, and only superior, high
grade tuition is given, and a maximum of re-
suits i'll minimum Of time, coupled with the
motto, '.pertection 10 tie ,fnish." indicate the
value of a course of instruction at this school,
Book. keeping, Banking Business Practice,
Business Forms, Arithmetic, Penmanshp,
Spelling, Shorthand, Typewriting. English,
Commercial Law. etc, constitute the cu,r'icu-
lam.
Equal advantages to ladies and gentlemen.
One of the special features of the college
will be the instruction in Shorthand, Type.
writing and Commercial branches.
All young people of Frostburg and vicinity
who are unable to attend the college in Cum
berand are invited to take up the work at the
Frostburg night school. Instruction in these
accomplishments with the management of
this school is of first importance. The school
is not conducted as a sidelne as an induce.
nent to other things, as is frequently the case
where institutions are in need of a drawing
card.
If you want the best training for practical
life, attend the Central Commercial College

Frozen Sweetness,

The JOURNAL took hurried look at
j. G.. Merrbachs ice-cream plant few
days ago and was not little surprised
to find that some heavy machinery is
required to develop the most popular
refreshment that is made. The freezer
and ice-crusher, propelled by II several
horsepower steam engine, are strong
machines, necessarily so, it is said, to
effect i'll quick time the most satisfact-
DRY results. The equipment includes
all the devices to prepare ice-cream
for the table i'll any style or shape.
Everything, too, about the premises is
neat and clean. The business has been
and is good, us indicated by orders az
gregating 81 gallons On hand when the
JOURNAL was there.

IrreligiOuS Curiosity,

The JOURNAL tells ola man who was all
his life accustomed to getting tight who
lived until he was go" which excites us to
wonder to what great age he would have
lived had he been an observation-disclosures.
Can't most always sometimes reach a
conclusion.
What is one man't meat is another :
poison.
Then heredity comes in; sometimes "a
frowning Providence" masking "a
smiling face"
That man should live until he is %
under any circumstances should excite
reverential gratitude for the goodness
which SO fortified him against every in
trinity except those which come in
evitably with age-not excite" the sort
of wonder" which sounds like skepti-
cism of the providential fitness Of things.

hard To see where new concern will
get the raw material, even if located
within the area of drainage from GENE

The JOURNAL asked Henry Mayer
about it. but he didn't know more than
was circulated in the rumor. His firm
is willing to sell, however. rather than
incur competition.
What is really wanted in Frostburg is
