MODERN SEATS FOR THE GIRLS
BEHIND THE COUNTER.

The customer that goes into the store
to meet friends. see things and do a lit
tie shopping, expects prompt attention
and courtesy, and if a nice little smile
is given her, so much the better. And
yet the saleslady may not feel one bit
inclined TO smile. The daily routine be-
hind the counter is trying at times. The
wonder is that the girls do not lose their
brightness and the CHEEKY smile we love
so well. Sometimes they become weary
walking hour after hour behind the
counter waiting on trade and maintain
ing an agreeable manner.
Keith-O'Brien Company makes it as
easy as possible for its help. There have
always been chairs behind the counters,
so that the girls could rest when not
busy. Lately this house has added at
intervals behind the different counters
seats that can be raised or lowered. so
that when not busy the salesladies can
take advantage of them. The seats are
comfortable and nice, and are appreci-
ated by the salespeOple.

There is one young man in this town
who will hereafter carry a timetable
when he visits Saltair.
There appears to be an excellent rea-
son for his determination on this ques-
ton. He went to the resort, accompa-
MED by his fairest, and in the course of
their perambulations they wound up on
the pier which extends beyond the linn
its of the dancing pavilion. Their arms
entwined about each other, they spent
one happy hour. But, alas, when they
returned to the main part of the pavil-
ion the last train was well on its way to
the city. And the management wanted
$40 for special engine and car to carry
home the recreant couple.
He, the young lawyer, was perfectly
willing to pay the price. but, once more,
alas, he had not the price. Then, with
true chivalry, he left his gold watch and
chain with the cruel conductor. and with
out further incident deposited the fair
young lady at her homestead.

1t seems that love laughs not only at
locksmiths, but at time tables. At any
rate that is the conclusion to be drawn
from a narrowing experience which a
young lawyer of this city had night be-
fore last at Saltair.
The young man was out at the popu-
lar resort with a coy damSel whose name
has not yet appeared in the society col
umnS.
They wandered out to the north pier
They sat down for a short while on the
steps. and he whispered sweet nOthingS
to her. She listened intently-ah, very
intently. In fact, they became so alb
sorbed in each other that when the gong
changed for the last train they did not
hear. 1t is not an established fact that
they did not hear, but they did not heed,
at any rate.
When he had said all that he had to
say and she had breathed back her soft
murmurs, they discovered that the train
had gone.
Oh, horrors!
He had in change but a few pieces of
silver Yet very boldly did he telephone
to the city and have a special engine
and car come out to Saltar. The price
was $40. He had nice watch, and
perforce, was compelled to leave it with
the man who looks after the resort at
night.
