Preachers Reference 10 wireless TeIeg-
raphy Ey0kes . Little History.

The Fifth avenue preacher who COM
pared the CELEBRITY Of the mind with wireless
telegraphy made an instantaneous hit
said a pewholder. Il could see a sudden
uplook in the congregation.
THE preacher OF to-day has got TO keep
I'D with the gait. After the service I met
the young preacher and complimented him
on his apt metaphor. He said II was neces-
sary TO speak in the language OF the hour
in order 10 interest the listeners.
| have preached on that sane subject
before he said. not recently. but several
times in the last twelve years. I remember
that my first metaphor wa the arrow.
I thought that was pretty swift. l was
younger then.
Upon thinking il over II occurred to
me that I might have used the bullet fired
from a gun to convey tho idea Of rapidity.
So the next time I took up the subject I
substituted il for the arrow. An old minis
ter picked me up on IL. He said a bullet
got there in a hurry. hut it was distanoed
by thought.
He told me that he himself had made
some progress on the subject and related
that W hen he fret tackled il many years
before he had spoken Of mental operation
being M rapid az a mans tumble from q
roof. That was before the days of the
locomotive.
Later on in life he compared the action
OF the mind with the flight Of the fast mail.
That was about the time the fast mail trains
were inaugursted. And then he quit.
He said he couldn't keep up with what was
hap penrng,
And ~ l got a pointer from my dear
old brother. who sfterward became q
Bishop, and learned from him the neces-
sity Of keeping Wy witt the daily process
sion in my metaphors and SMILES. i knew
a minister who in speaking Of anything
whs re- the idea Of swiftHess was discussed
alwavs said i, was Ike a house afire. That
would be very tame now.
so to-day In thinking over this part
of my Discourse before l went into the
pnlpit. when | wanted a metaphor 7 hit
on wireless telegraphy. As things are
going fifty years frorn now my successor
will probably find IL necessary TO use some
other metaphor. something hat will he in
keeping with the instant.
The time IL coming. | { CUB not. when
il won't do for "a Ilan To keep up will the
procession. He will have u get ahead Of
IL in order 20 be successful
"Ae ! left the church the idea unfolded.
II seemed TO me that every man ! saw was
engaged in getting ahead OF the throng.
l caught myself wishing for wings in place
of legs

A Bit Of History

What's your secret How did you become the largest china
and glass retail merchants in the country" was asked us the other
day. We are frank to say the secret is an open one. Every woman
whose confidence in us has helped us to grow knows II. II IS this:
We believe that the higher grades of merchandise can be success
fully sold at much lower rates Of profit than the average merchant
asks for them.
Twenty years ago we emphasized this as the basis OF our selling
policy. Our business today proves the soundness of it.
If you care to prove it to your own personal satisfaction take the
time some day to make a comparison of our qualities and prices with
Others.
