Low Prices
 and Credit

Furniture and Carpets wear out just as fast in dull times as in any other, and it often seems as if they did faster.
 We are giving credit to many purchasers who "rnust have" goods and have not the ready cash to pay for them, but our percentage of profit is the same low one we introduced so many years ago and have always maintained.
 Many newly married people are hesitating between board. ing and housekeeping because of the scarcity of money.
 A small payment down and you can have a home. The difference you will save be. tween the cost of boarding and the cost of living in your own home will make the weekly payments.

EYES ON MM2. GOULD
Heiress and Her Prince Under Constant Espionage in
 Rome.
EARL Y MARRIAGE EXPECTED
Now That De Sagan Will Turn Protcs- tant, the Vatican Cannot Pre-
 vent Affair.

Rome, May 3-Possbly after the fierce glare Of notoriety in which they lived in New York Anna Gould and Prince de sagan consider themselves in comparative privacy in Italy; but to ordinary European mortals they live in an atmosphere of espionage and pub liclty which shoul be intolerable.
 If she appears in the corridor of the hotel 1t Is whispered that she has gone to his sitting room. If he goes to her apartment, there are several pairs of eyes which note the time he stops there. If he caresses her children, 1t is because he wants to ingratiate himself With their mother And if they go out together, they are to be secretly mar been interrogated, as have other mem- bers of Mime. Gould's household.
 The other day in Naples Mime. Gould entered a motorcar in light-colored springlike frock, followed by the prince, also in festive attire. That was quite sufficient for q report to trans l plre that marriage was imminent. and the watchers. reportorial and oth- erwlse, tumbled into any kind of con- yeyances obtaindble in their efforts to 1 follow. Then chase began which, | from time to time. led the pursuers 1 into the thick of the traffic or through | quiet streets. Thus most of the after ! noon was lost and the followers were about to give up in despair when Ma i dame's automobile drew up at the city ! hall, One reporter at once sent word | to his paper that the wedding had taken place. Another, more cautious, afterward learned that the couple was seeking permission to visit certain places of interest.
 In regard to the Gould -Sagan affair the vatican continues to maintain silence but is exceedingly dispeased al the idea of the match. The church cannot for moment countenance the Gould divorce, but lt has taken steps to reach Mme. Gould through her sons tutor, Ahbe Cognac But the abbe ! profeescs to have no influence. which Is probably the truth, although he does not seem to be as much shocked at the idea of such a marriage as a priest orr dinarily would be.
 The prince himself Is considered Ihopeese, and has not been approached by the vatican. Really. ecclesastics ir Rome have little hope that either party can be convinced that the marriage should not take place.
 Rome. May 2.-One of the greatest difficulties in the way of marriage be- tween Prince Helie de Sagan and Mime. , Anna Gould, who was formerly Count ess dc Castellane, is tho fact that the : Catholic church. not recognizing di. vorce. has refused to annul Mime Gould's first marriage.
 The Prince de sagan Is determined to marry Mme. Gould. and to this ent he has decided to turn Protestant. Init will enable the couple 10 be united h, both a civil and religious marriag, ceremony
 If the prince had remained a Cath olic there could be no religious mar rlnge and consequently his wife would not be accepted by society.

DANTE'S MESSAGE
TO this CENTURY

Dante and His Message to the
Twentieth Century" was the subject
of paper at the monthly meeting of
the Ministerial Union in Delaware
Avenue Baptist Church this morning
by the Rev DR.. H. w. Kellogg. Of
Grace M. p. Church. He asserted that
Dante's idea Of hell, as given in his
Inferno" was in accord with the
modern conception of hell. as state
of being rather than as a physical con-
dition of the hereafter.
Dante gave a wonderfully accurate
vision of the theology Of the twentieth
century" said DR.. Kellogg, "and one
that can be received with all the scien-
ltihc demand for cause and affect Of
the present day. His God was the i'm
minent God, one in nature and within
us. His theology was not that OF
Jonathan Edwards. His dreadful pic
ture Of hell was subjective, not objec-
tive"
Dr. Kellogg deplored the impossible
lity of modern Jurisprudence to fit the
punishment to the sin as did Dante
when he in his Inferno" placed the
miser in pitch, so that his coins could
cling in myriads around his body; the
selfish in an encasement of ice, and thu
lhypocritical wearing hoods Of lead. j.
this he saw Dante's intention to con
vey the thought of mental hell rathe
than a material hell.
DR.. II. c. Hoover, of Newburyport
Mass, was a visitor at the meeting.
DR.. Evans, of Crozier Seminary Will
be the speaker next month.
