MATCH MAKING

The first really efficient lucifer match must be put to the credit of MT. John Walker, of Stockton-on-T Tees. who in the year 1927 placed them on the mar ket under the name of "congreves,' in compliment to Sir William Congreve, the inventor of the war rocket.

MIR. cHAMBERLA1N's POSITION

It cannot be, and I think will not be, denied by any candid person that for the moment, MT. Chamberlain fills a larger space in the public eye than he has ever done-than any other states man of the time does. Of success-in the divine sense of getting on"-Mr. Chamberlain has achieved measure that, taking all the conditions into ac- count, stands almost unexampled. He has achieved it so rapidly, and amid circumstances so varying and difficult, that one need not be surprised at the widespread interest which his present policy excites. Pitt and Disraeli rose mainly by royal favor and unaided by single breeze of popularity. MT. Chamberlain has made progress by aid of popularity alone, and that popularity he has won for himself He has steadily and rapidly climbed from high to higher, until. at the present moment, he has got one foot on the final step leading to that platform which is the highest to which any subject of the King can attain.

sell groceries at wholesale to large con-
lighthouses, camps, etc. Their stock is
carefully selected with special refer
ence to consumers interests and while
they sell to dealers their chief atten-
ton is paid to the trade Of large con-
sumers. This is the only house Of its
kind In the Northwest and this fact
helps to show the commercial jobbing
importance Of our city.
This firm has on many occasions
exhibited a friendly spirit toward labor

should upon all occasions show re-
ciprocity and aid in every reasonable
way toward making this company an
even greater success.
