REDUCING OLD STOCKS.

July brings to the retail merchant
the problem of reducing his stocks
for shelf room and ready money.
The merchant who is niggardly
about soliciting trade for July COM
monty has to make deeper cuts in
August.
we'll advertised sale at 90 per
cent reduction is better than a poor
ly advertised sale at twice that dis
count. If you use only brief
newspaper announcement, the read
crs will say that you lack confidence,
in the merits of your proposition.
No matter if you say you are cutting
prices in two, they will call it fake,
unless you show that you believe it
by presenting it emphatically and
confidently.
On the other hand, when you ad-
vertise sale adequately, even if at
a lesser rate of cutting, it looks
probable to the buying public that it
must be the real thing, or you would
not have taken the pains or spent
the money to give them the facts Of
your offering.

JOHNSON STILL CHAMPION.
Burly Negro Knocks Out Jeifries i'm
Fifteenth Round and Retains
Worlds Championship in
Pu9ilism.

The great fight at Reno, Nevada,
for the Worlds ring championship,
was held according TO schedule on
Monday afternoon, and John A.
Johnson, the negro champion, had
little difficulty in retaining the
championship, knocking out James
j. Jeffries, the former champion, in
the fifteenth round. The simple
story of the fight is that Jeffries
failed to come back" after some
years out of the ring, and was no
match for the burly negro. John
son had the best of the fight
throughout, and in Knockout
blow in the fifteenth round, Jeffries'
seconds threw up the sponge before
the count was finished, giving the
battle to Johnson.
The purse was $101,000, the
winners share $70,6OO. the losers
share $5O,4OO. Johnson's share of
the moving picture privileges was
$12O,6OO, and Jeffries' share s111,-

Charles Grundeland Meets Death i'm

is STRUCK WHILE SWITCHING
One Leg Cut Off and Another Badly
Crushed, He Lives Only Few
Hours After the Accident
Occurred.

Another death is added to the
long list of killed and injured by
the Milwaukee trains at Calmar
during the past few years. Charles
Grundeland,% who has for some
years been employed as switchman
in the yards at Calmar, came to an
untimely death while on duty Mon
day night. The details of the TRACE
dy are meagre but in some manner
while he was engaged at his work
at switching, he was caught under
moving cars, and one leg cut off and
another badly crushed The acci-
dent happened about $50 o'clock
Monday night, and he did not rally
from the shock, but passed away
about soon after midnight.
Mr.. Grundeland was a middle
aged man, leaving a wife and daugh-
ter, who were absent at the time,
visiting in Wisconsin. He was gen.
orally popular among his acquain-
tances, and the family have the
sympathy of everyone in their sad
bereavement. ~

AFTER THE KNOT Is TIED.

While the June wedding couples
are languishing in the seas of honey
of the wedding journey, some ques-
tion arises in the mind of the philo-
sopher as to the aftermath.
1t has recently come to our ears
that at a certain swell wedding the
friends were discouraged from
marking gifts with the brides mar
ried name. Although no signs of
future squalls disturbed the matri-
monial heavens, yet in view of the
ordinary chances of hymeneal navi-
cation, it was deemed wiser not to
permanently burden the bride with
her husbands initials.
What will be the home life of
families built on a foundation felt
to be so temporary? Will not ship
wreck be almost inevitable when it
is held in view as a likely con-
tingency on even the wedding day!
And how great will be the loyalty
of children to the home that exists
on basis of expediency for the time
being, rather than as a union to last
until death do us part?

He was one of the world greatest

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION
While the insurgents claimed q

by the regular republicans, 1. e.. the
Endorsement of President Taft and
the remarkable success he has made
in securing legislation passed by
congress in accordance with the re-
publican national platform and his
individual ideas. The regular re-
publicans in. the primary campaign
contended for the denomination of
Governor Carroll and the indorse-
ment Of President Taft, and in both
of these issues they have carried
