lowance In buying the pictures. "How
much extra will ii cost?"

"In the case Of any important sale
we prefer that one Of our men sunerin-
tend the hanging Of the picture. That
snsures justice for the painting. With
out meaning any disrespect for our
customers. I must say that not one per-
sou In q hundred who has had no spe'
cial instruction in art can take pic
ture home and place 1t in an adyln-

been trained to that business, on the

I'VE studied the matter Of street
cleaning as well as we could, and then
we asked for and received permission
from the city council to take charge Of
six blocks Of the main business street

the Waring system, the salient fea-
lures Of which are:
'First.-sweeping the pavements BY
hand with push brooms and collecting the
dirt into piles.
''second.- ediatsly taking up each
pile Of dirt and depositing It, with the
help Of small hand broom and shovel.
