SMALL STORES BOOMING.
Certain Retailers Have Not Been Injured by Great
Enterprises.

when, while ago, the great stores had SO
increased in size and in the multiplicity of things
they dealt in that they could supply about every
human requirement. said city dweler some
people thought that the day of the small store

couldn't compete with the big one, but the small
store Is still doing business. see now as many
of them II not more than before; and at
this, at first, wondered; but don't wonder so
much now, since our baby came.

and butcher shops and various smaller stores fur

These are the little stores that were to be put

A number of drivers of racing cal

The dangers of submarine navigal
ton, in the present stage of its devel-
opment, are greater than those of the
aeroplane. In an aeroplane accident
the deaths are limited to one or two,
but when a submarine boat goes down
and fails to come up, the calamity
usually carries off a dozen or more
human beings at time. There were
