The Echo of the

Until a few days ago we were happy

day last week in tearing down the

one wall was weak, and Birmingham
efficient building inspector said: our
wall must 60"
1t was a most unexpected blow. 1t
means a great loss to us in time ana
damage to goods-of which we must
bear the brunt alone. The insurance
companies are not responsible in such
an instance.
That is the reason for this sale.
Necessity knows no law" and we are
actually forced TO sacrifice our goods
without any regard to cost or worth.
We have been so long among you
here in birmingham, that we feel JUS
titled in making this plain statement
of facts at the beginning of our sale
and taking you into our confidence
like old friends.
Please to bear we'll in mind that this
is not sale goods or damaged goods
but Friedmans own dependable mer-
chandise-fresh and clean, and back of
which we can afford to stand with our
personal guarantee of perfect satisfac-
ton.
The values are unprecedented. Even
If you don't need anything right now,
come in and look around. You may
need something later.

Now, a dog has lovable face,

you, oh, SO much! to remember

Now, because he has a white

goat thought he was very wise
animal. Many people, as well as
goats, mistake a solemn face for
a wise one. So the goat thought
he was wise, and he wanted to be
ruler of the animal kingdom. He
didn't like to say so himself, so
he got the hyena to say it for him.
And the goat looked very solemn
and stroked his white beard and
said nothing, while the hyena had
a grin for everybody and told
everyone what a wise animal the
goat was, and a leader in the
Sunday school. and all that; so
they elected the goat ruler.
After that 1t became the duty of
the goat to judge the disputes be-
tween the animals. One day the
wolverine made complaint against
the beaver. What has the bea-
yer done?" asked the goat grave

the water very deep, and there
he has built a house for himself
and his family and his friends, SO
that / cannot get at them at all.
Yes, and he has gathered the banks
of trees and the like, which is his
food for the winter, and has piled
it up on the bank near to the
house so that none of them need
venture away from the stream,
where l could catch them. l ask
for fair play, your honor"
quite so, quite so,' said the
goat. "Mr. Beaver, are you guilty
or not guilty? Did you build said
dam in said stream in said man
ner as described by said plaint-
iff?"
why, yes," said the beaver,
"of course I built a dam; but 1
have a right to make a home for
myself and my family. If the VOL
VERNE chooses to make his home
on the land, we have a right to
make our home in the water"
quite so, quite so," said the
goat. II will give the wolverine
the land, and you shall have the
water"
Then, your honor" said the
wolverine, "if the land is mine,
the stream is running through my
land. The beaver must therefore
pay me rent for the stream. ] de-
mand two young beavers every
year for rent"
quite so, quite So" said the
goat; but it was quite plain that
he said quite so" because he
could think of nothing else to say.
Your HONOR whispered the
hyena, the wolverine is a land
lord, and a landlord must have
rent. The beaver is only a labor
er, and must expect to pay rent.
Let the beaver pay the rent, and
let half of 1t come to you for set
thing the dispute"
"But | don't want to eat one Of
the beavers babies" said the goat.
"Ah, then I'll eat it for you,"
said the hyena.
So the goat ruled as the VOL
VERNE claimed. And that is how
the giraffe happened-though, to
be sure, you do not see why just
yet.

finish telling about the goat and
also how the giraffe happened.
