NEW CASTLE. Jan. 6.-Winter,
blustry and precipitate as il has
proved during the past few days, has
made good with the lovers Of out door
sports. School girls, and eve girls"
as well, are enjoying skating. They
of course showed they had Comstock-

and chilly shivers went away for the
fashions of grandmother days and the
good warm flannel underskirts, the
ding-a-ling. head dress rather than a
creation held on by dangerous long
hat pins, and then dashing escorts.
These go TO make up the appearance
OF merry skaters among whom en-
thusiasm prevailed.
But the trolley men last night had
their own troubles. especially at Meg
ginsons switch. The breezy phase of
the weather carried the snow to the
tracks, blocking the switch so that IL

A TRUE WANT AD STORIETTR.
Copyright. 1911. by De Forest Porter)

and my family protest against and
ridicule my doings
During one of the periods when n
had more bargains on hand than r
had places to put them. Il occurred TO
me that | ought to think of some
novel way to turn them into cold
cash
My inclinations had led me 20 study
the Want Comumns of the daily pa
per carefully. Experience had taught
me that many OF the best bargains
could be found through them. Per-
haps ! could learn of a novel way to
dispose OF these bargains through the
same source.
Acting on this thought, / studied
the Want Columns more diligently
than ever. One day / came across
this-'RummaEe Sale. corner of
Blank and Dash streets read no
further This was my cue, and act
ed ON it.
On our lot was an empty shed which
| had the boys clean out Then they
gladly brought my despised bargains
TO the shed for me. Everything that
we decided We had no use for our
selves was taken from the house and
arranged as well as possible in the
shed
When everything was ready ! plac-
ed a Rummage Sale Ad in the Want
Columns OF our daily paper. This
ordered kept in for five days and
waited for results. They were not
long in coming.
The first day few people came and
bought few articles, asked the prices
of others and walked away. The next
day more came. Each day the num-
her increased. until the fifth day the
boys and myself were busy all day
selling the stuff At the end of a
week everything was disposed of. but
people kept on coming for days after
the last article was gone.
Almost invariably they would say.
Il saw your ad In the Want Columns
and came to see what you had for
bargains"
These remarks proved conclusively
that others studied the Want Columns
besides myself.
AS / cleaned up my house and found
plenty of room for everything instead
of the clutter that had annoyed us for
several months, / gave a sigh of sat-
isfaction
What reconciled the family most
were the crisp bank notes that | gave
each Of them for assisting me at my
sale.
My own bank account was materi-
ally increased. but the boys laughed
and said. ma will take her money
and go chasing Want Column bargains
again as soon as she gets a chance to
read the papers"
My answer was to call attention to
the results and ask triumphantly If il
didn't PAY. in good cold cash, to
read and USE the Want Columns.

| dearly love a bargain. To buy a
good article for less than its usual
market value and sell it again at a
good profit is one of my fads.
If do not sell my bargains my en-
joyment in keeping them is all the
greater because they actually cost less
than l would have to pay at the ordi-
nary market price.
Many times I go TO a considerable
distance, just to follow up corset,
lace or ribbon sale. The carfares l
pay out and the time l spend make
my bargains cost more than they
would right near my door, but that
doesn't make any difference.
l have satisfied my bargain-hunting
instincts and answered the call OF
my New England blood
With such acquisitiveness goes an
other trait the desire TO swap Off
what l have accumulated. My store
