PARK BENJAMIN's sCHLEY STORY.

Park benjamin, who is a graduate OF
the Annapolis academy, and familiar
with naval affairs, has told the story OF
schley and the Greedy relief expedition
in the Review of Reviews, concluding it
with a description of the way the com
mander of the expedition behaved him
self when he was rewarded, Here is what
Mr.. Benjamin says:
THE entire planning of the expedition
and it's equipment was left wholly to
Schley, although he had never before
been in the Arctic regions. BY way of
further impetus congress saw fit to Of
fer a reward of $4,000 to any person not
in the naval or military service of the
United States who should rescue the
Greedy party or discover it's fate. That

HINT TO SHOPPERS.

There is Very sensible idea which Is
4ndlng favor among shoppers, says The
Philadelphia North Amer can. The clerks
IN the big department stores are PRAYING
that the good work may go on. and the
women whom it has reached are so ap-
preciative of its benefits that they are
telling their neighbors about it,
When one of these wise women starts
on shopping tour now she carries in her
bag g,anS quantity Of little gummed labels,
The label is. a slip containing, neatly
typewriter, her name and address.
When clerk takes her order sine
doesn't have to go through the iaborious
task of spelling out an unfamiliar name
Which sometimes the clerk doesn't set
out one of her nicely prepared labels, and
she has saved herself and the store a
sured herself that through no mistake
will her bundle be delivered to her next
door neighbor or the family across the
street.
In busy days the new device works
wonders and is boon to both shoppers
and clerks.
