"Strange, now, amt it, how one thing
brings up another" sententiously re-
marked Polly, as they emerged from
hedry goods store. Carpets and drap-
cries, you know, are of great lmpor-
tance.'' ooh, well, my young lady, it
won't take long to settle that matter,
replied Uncle Josh. ''Walk right around
the corner of the street little further
and we'll visit the only exclusive carpet
house in the city. The Newport Furni-
ture Co. can show you more handsome
floor coverings than could be found In
days journey, sold at moderate prices,
too" Polly was soon reveling in per-
feet elysitm ofsbeautifully designed car
pets, of every conceivable shade and
pattern, including Wiltons. Administers,
velvets, Brussels and ingrains, besides
linoleums and mattings, of which she
selected enough for every room in her
house, together with draperies, lace
curtains and such.
"Let's see-I promised you a gold
watch, didn't I?'' queried Uncle Josh OF
Polly, "and Frank d. Crandall is the
man to sell US one cheap" Entering
the popular jewelry store the old man
CALAMITY acquitted himself of the prom
Use and then directed Polly's attention
to the superior stock of silverware car
ried by the house. ''There is no other
such house in town. said the old man,
land will guarantee the quality to be
the very best. Pick out your family
clock while here" he added. "Crandall
carries magnificent line. Don't forget
another fact" he continued, "if ever
you unfortunately need pair of specs
this is the place to come. He has every
thing required to improve defective eyes;
and, say, my bov. remember these folks
are also expert doctors on sick watches"
"While Uncle Josh was bordering
where to 90 next, Polly suddenly asked !;
"Uncle, where can | find the leading
millinery establishments" Just few
doors further on Washington avenue"
replied Uncle Josh, land we will visit
Fee Sisters, who, by the way, have on
hand one of the completest stocks Of
millinery to be found in this city. You
can get what you want there. the latest
styles and lowest prices being their
motto. Years of experience guarantees
that when you have purchased of them
you have the thing according to fashion
and satisfaction that your work has
been done by competent artist" In
few hours there never was happier
girl than Polly. for her fall hat was a
perfect dream of loneliness.
81 would like to make you acquainted
with DR.. 0. c. Nelson. my dentist friend,
too" said the old man. "His office is
on Washington avenue, and if you ever
have to supplementyour natural teeth"
ugh! Don't you mention false teeth
to mel" cried Polly. 'I'll never carry
'pearly-lies' in my mouth if 60 tooth
less" ''Oh, as for that" laughed
Uncle Josh, ''if you only consult a good
dentist in time, you can save the catas-
trophe, DIR. Nelson. for instance, is
wonderfully expert in saving natural
teeth, and he has the skill and every
mechanical appliance necessary to do
his work with the least discomfort to his
patrons. His anaesthetic for painless
extraction is wonder and works like a
charm"
After this visit Uncle Josh suggested

housekeeping controls masculine tenn
per. To that end you must patronize
a grocer on whom you can depend for
honest goods, In every transaction [
have found Roy Wimber perfectly reli-
able. You will find him a careful deal
er, always fully stocked with every
possible thing in the line of staple and
fancy groceries, fresh and first-olass, no
shelf-worn goods there, while the prices
are down to brass tacks. To keep peace
in this family, get all your groceries of
the Home Grocery"
"By the way," remarked Uncle Josh,
as they reached the street, II must run
over to the First National Bank and get
another check book. Come along with
me and get acquainted with
Charles +. Craig, the cashier,
for of course you will do business with
them, and it is always more pleasant to
be personally acquainted with the peo-
pie you do business with. This bank is
as solid as the base of the universe, and
has strong working capital of $4,000.
You will find them ever ready to extend
any accommodations compatible with
business principles. Your savings, de-
posted there, will return you fair rate

either. to rent one of the First National
Banks safety deposit boxes in which to
keep your valuables."
