The BARGAINS That This Store Offers
From Day to Day Are Not Recorded
in The Advertisements

IN he Advertisements
The fact u.s. as trite and as commonplace as it
may seem to the skeptical some of the best values
that arise here never see the light of publicity but
are carried off from day to day by those who visit
the store
A little word of honest explanation about this
may mean the saving OF many dollars to you in
your monthly purchases.
The whole thing resolves itself into question
of honest advertising. When we call your atten-
ton through the newspapers to bargains, you
may know that the values are exactly what we
claim for them BARGAINS seldom go begging,
merchandise that is underprlced usually finds pur-
ChaserS. So much SO that when we go to adver-
tise reductions we first see that we have enough
of the merchandise to warrant the whole buying
public of Atlanta to share If we have not
either state the fact that the quantity is limited
do not advertise it at all, but reduce prices
and leave the merchandise to the pleasure of those
who see it on the counters.
Our ideas of honest advertising leave us no
choice We must reduce to the minimum the pos
sibites of disappointing those who come in re-
spouse to our announcements.
And so it is that many small lots of splendid
values are daily put on the counters and disposed
of without the general public ever hearing of them
Right now there are some most unusual reduC-
lions on COlored faxOns, laces, embroideries and
on few odd bath mats. Whether they will be

this store; whenever you have shopping to do start
here These unadvertised specials are as broad as
the stocks of this store; very very few of wonlens

OLD ROMAN BATHS.

They Held Thoaters, Temples, Feast
ing Halls and Libraries.
The ancient Romans were extrava.
gantly fond Of bathing. They got their
notions about the bath as luxury
from the Greeks, and al one time there
were nearly 900 public bathing estab-
lishments in Rome, some Of which
were the most beautiful and elaborate
structures in the world.
The baths Of the Emperor Diocletian
covered more than half a square mile
and contained, besides immense basins
and thousands Of marble recesses, the
aters, temples, halls for feasting, prom
onades planted with trees, libraries.
schools for youth and academies for
the discussions Of the learned. The
bathers sat on marble benches below
the surface Of the water, around the
edge Of the basins, scraping themselves
with the dull knives Of metal and
ivory and taking occasional plunges
into the water.
Dissipated Romans would spcnd
whole days in the bath, seeking relief
from overindulgence in eating and
drinking the night before. Everybody,
even the emperor, used these baths,
which We're open to every one who
chose to pay the price of. f.admission.
1t was not usual for the old Romans
to have baths in their houses though
at q date 1,J00 years before that, or
$500 years ago, the noblemen Of an
cient Greece had their dwellings sup
piled with baths Of terra Gotta.

Washington Was the Godfather of

Apparently George Washington was
not only the Father cf His Country, but
also something like the godfather Of
aviation in America. At any rate, he
wrote letter for one NJ. Rlanch-
ard, who made the first balloon ascen-
sion in this country at Philadelphia in
1893. The letter reprinted in st. Mich.
olas reads:
George Washington, president of
the United States of America. To all
whom these presents shall come.
"The bearer hereof, Mr.. Blanchard,
citizen of France, proposing to ascend
in a balloon from the city of Philadel-
phia, ut 10 O'Clock a. m. this day, to
pass in such direction and to descend
in such place as circumstances may
render most convenient
'"These are, therefore, to recommend
to all citizens of the United States.
and others, that in his passage, de-
scent, return or journeying elsewhere
they oppose no hindrance or molesta-
ton to the said Mr.. Blanchard, and
that, on the contrary, they receive and
aid him with that humanity and good
will which may render honor to their
country and justice to an individual
so distinguished by his efforts to
establish and advance an art, in order
to make It useful to mankind in gen.
eral.

C0PPERPLATE ENGRAVING.
Tho Art Was Discovered Through tho
Mcrest Accident.

Every one has noticed on his visiting
card the extremely delicate lines of his
name; and almost every one knows
that they are produced by printing
from an engraved copperplate. Like
many other things of use and beauty,
this art of copperplate engraving was
discovered through the merest acci-
dent by the goldsmiths of Florence in
the fifteenth century.
1t is a historical fact. however, that
one day an engraver on gold, wishing
TO take proof of his work. made the
usual sulphur cast and then filed up
the lines with lampblack. thus ena-
bling him to see exactly how his work
looked. While occupied in doing this
it occurred to him that possibly the
same results could be obtained by fill
ing up the original engraving with
lampblack instead of making an i'm
preston of it and filing up that.
Struck with the idea. he put it into
practical Use ard, with little damp
paper, succeeded in getting q fair i'm
PRESTON from the engraving.
The discovery was communicated to
other workers in the art, and they
hailed it with joy, as it saved al the
ardUous trouble of making sulphur
nasts. h''t they never saw the full
value Of the discovery, and consequent
ly the art Of plate engraving lay for
almost century before It's true I'M
port was discovered and brought out
In all its great and beautiful results. -

rave over the crude results of earlier
times and search the world for exam
Pics of these early masters to add to
their collections. Many of these col
lections have been presented to MI.

A SINGLE
TAX
DILEMM MA
By
ELNA PAULSEN

l came into a biggish town
Twas big in point of size,
l met a melancholy clown
With misery in his eyes.
Good SIR quoth l, and glanced
about,
What ails the town and you,
Is everyone vacationing,
And have they naught to do?"
He fixed his mournful eyes on me,
And sadly shook his head
] glanced at all who wandered past
And in their faces read
That all who ran might read,
Good sir cried I, Pray answer me
TO my demands give heed.
1.-THE town is big, but empty quite
And when l last was here
The streets were swarming day and
night
The native shed tear.
"Why, stranger, have you never
heard
What happened here of late?
Upon the last election day
We held within this state?
mo! you shall hear the story now,"
He cried with loosened tongue;
From one who witnessed all the row
And saw how it begun.
"You see, the Single Taxer men
Accomplished their design
And l have lost unto the state
The farm that once was mine.
"And when I've earned little coin
I'll HE me to a train
And leave this town far, far behind,
And ne'er come back again."
This tale they told me far and wide,
The reason now l knew
For hopelessness on every side,
AS towns more empty grew.
"The outcome of the Single Tax,
Or tax on land alone,
Which puts all on landowners backs
They answered with a moan.
Twas sad to see the once strong
heart,
Into hopelessness relax,
And to know that all the wrong thus
done,
Was caused by single tax.

peror. The case attracted great deal
of attention. and some Of the leading
men Of Japan, commenting on the dead

In the eyes Of his fellow townsmen.
however, his deed was commendablc,
for they erected statue in his honor
as an ideal exponent of the japanese
conception Of loyalty.

A TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE.
1t Is Very Impressive and Most Wen
dsrful Spectacle.

1t Is Very Impressive and Most Wen
dsrful Spectacle.
One of the most beautiful and inter
esting sights to be seen is IN eclipse
of the sun. 1t is quite a remarkable
fact that the sun il 400 times as broad
as the moon and at the same time is
about 400 times as far away So to
us they appear to he the same size.
a total eclipse of the sun is a very
impressive and wonderful sight, says
Harold w. Clark in Farm and Home.
AS the time of the total eclipse
draws near the darkness increases.
About ten minutes before totality the
darkness can almost be felt. Mems
faces show copper color, which
makes them look CHASTITY. Birds cease
their songs and go to roost Flowers
close, and an awful stiffness rests
upon all the face of Nature. The tenn
perature falls and dew appears. Then
away to the west we see the shadow
Of the moon coming with almost terri
flying swiftness. 1t comes ut the rate
Of 1000 miles an hour and pounces
upon us so suddenly that we are star
tied.
Looking at the sun, we see it wholly
covered by the moon, but surrounded
by brilliant light that flashes out all
around it. This is the corona and is
seen only during total eclipses. The
eclipse lasts only for four or five min.
utes, and then the shadow of the
moon passes us, and we can see the
sun again.
If we should ever be so fortunate as
to get chance to see a total solar
eclipse we should count ourselves
lucky indeed. 1t would be worth go.
ing many miles to see.
