dence that II a vote were taken on the
question: Are we selling the cheapest
and best goods in town, the entire
population would answer AYE. In
stead of saying this collectively they
are saying it individually, every day in
the year by their purchases. Those
who are interested in the fact will
naturally ask why all trade at our
store. The answer can be given in a
few words: People trade where they
-an get the best goods; they trade
where they get best goods at lowest
prices; they trade where they get fair
treatment and a reliable deal every
time. Wild horses won't keep people
from trading where they get these adj
vanatges. That is why they trade
with US, and that is why you SHOULD
trade with us. We are positively head

 The term New Year Is understood in the religious sense alone. and not as marking the beginning of civil year. As such It's observance Is peculiarly solemn and impressive. hymns from the oldest libert- to of the nations being read in unison by the congregation while the chcir responds in songs or solemn sound.
 The reform service differs greatly from the orthodox. There are Jewish congre- gations in the land where the devout and pious assemble in prayer clad In their curious customs are no longer observed fin the medern and progressive congregation in Montgomery.
