THERE is A REASON
For the Phenomenal Response to the
Discount Sale at Baum
partners,

A striking illustration or the power
of printers ink, when backed up by
the right kind OF merchandise, Is pro-
yided by the phenomenal response 10
the annual discount sale now in prog
ress at Baumgartner's Fashion shop.
I'm the Chamber of Commerce build
ing.
The fame OF this house has spread
far and wide. Their suits and over
coats rival the finest products OF the
SWEETEST tailors in the country; In fact,
the Baumgartner garments are In
class by themselves and have met
with such popular favor among dress
ers who have hitherto depended upon
custom tailors for their raiment. that
leading clothing manufacturers
throughout the country have sent 10
the Fashion Shop for sample garments
TO rip apart for their designers to
copy, paying the full retail price for
the same.
Another feature which has no doubt
contributed to the increasing effec-
tiveness of these annual sales III
cleaning up stock left over from sea
son to season. Is the fact that every
transaction is carried out exactly In
accordance to the advertisement. NO
misstatements are tolerated either In
the ads or by the statesmen, and
shrewd buyers have been quick 10
discern and appreciate this fact. AT
this time OF the year many OF the
suits and overcoats are sold absolute
ly below the amount paid for Their
manufacture by Mr.. Baumgartner. but
the gentleman Is SO sure OF their SUI
perior merit-exclusiveness of pattern,
classiness of style and DIT and the
carefulness and honesty OF the work
manship--that he can count upon the
return OF every customer when they
are in the market to supply then
spring and summer needs at the regu-
lar prices.
That this February has been the
largest by nearly so per cent in the
history of the Baumgartner Fashion
Shop is a fine tribute to the merchan
disc and methods of this live inst1
tuition

ferred opened unchanged and each

gamated opened unchanged, declined

tinued dull and irregular. there being
some light rallies in a few OF the
leaders.
There was buying by semi-bankine
interests in the stock market agar
this morning, much of the same char
acter as appeared yesterday. and the
orders through these houses induced
the trading element on the floor tc
take the bull side during the frs
hour and help along a fair upward
movement. Belief that the decision II
the Illinois Central suit would favor
Union Pacific was the most importan
factor, and was the incentive for
good deal of buying of Union Pacific
all through yesterday.
The influence OF the decision was Il
some extent discounted by the spur
that came just before the close yester
day afternoon. After the decision wa!
published the price moved up t.
|lI6 IL. Irregular advances were made
In a number OF stocks like Missouri
Pacific. New York Central, Reading
and Delaware & Hudson, but al
through the hour the various move
ments quickly ended and the marke
turned frequently from advances to re
actions, leaving prices after the firs
hours trading without much ne
change In the leading issues from yes
terday's closing figures.
Governments unchanged; railroads
and other bonds steady.
