BUY IN ATLANTA,
ADVISES YATES;
BEST LINE HERE
Merchants Of State Lose Time and
Money in Far-off Markets,
Says Jobber,
..N MERCHANTS of Georgia, get

tsM MERCHANTS of Georgia, get
WI your goods in Atlanta" is
the advice OF p. d. Yates,
vice president and buyer of the Rid
ley Williamson Wyatt Company. AT
lanta is the distributing point of the
great Southeast. and here you can
buy as great a variety as in any city
in the country, can get your goods
much quicker and in many cases
pay less money.
The Atlanta jobber is the Georgia
merchants friend. He frequently
carries the merchants account a year
or two by way of pure accommoda-
ton. In far-off cities where the mer-
chant buys he is obliged to pay on the
dot, and there is no accommodation
about It. We believe this situation
ought to appeal to the Georgia mer-
chant and cause him to quit sending
his money out of the State"
Mr. Yates pointed out that 1obbing
houses in New York had practically
retired from the field because they
could not compete with the concerns
nearer the buyer. He declared that II
a merchant wanted ten different lines
and ordered from that many fNbers
he might not get thing he wante !,
whereas IL he ordered all ten through
Atlanta he would probably get as
many as five, if not more.
Furthermore" declared Mr.. Yates,
1.-The Atlanta tobber can All orders the
same day they are received, while the
Baltimore, Richmond. Cincinnati or
Louisville jobber is frequently ten
days or two weeks getting the goods
on the road"

The largest peach orchard in
Washington State will be destroyed

Selecting a Pipe

a VERY necessary reform in re-
n tail pipe selling was pointed
out recently in a letter to d
Los Angeles newspaper. The writer
referred 70 the present practice of
trying the drawing qualities of a pipe
before purchasing.
while in "a cigar store on Spring.
street this evening" he said, 81
watched a man buying d pipe. lie
sucked and blew on at least a dozen
before making a final selection. Upon
asking the clerk. ! found that this is
a common habit Of pipe buyers, which
the retailers and their clerks are I'M
able to stop.
1--WE impose heavy fines and even
Imprisonment for splitting in pubic
places, and have passed a law sboI-
ishing common drinking cups. Why,
then should an innocent purchaser nc
obliged to run the chance of gettins

mouth OF some person suffering from

firm has had in So years, and that
the prospects for a continuance

which once had such a vogue in the
South.
There is also a tendency at pres.
ent, says Mr.. Binder, to preserve old
portraits to greater extent than
ever. Buyers who want to protecl
oils and crayons pay good prices for
the better grades Of framing. More
appreciation of good pictures. he sd.
is found in the schools.

MANN IN FIGHT FOR
LINCOLN MEMORIAL
Wins Parliamentary Victory in the
House on Question

Washington, January 23.-It took the
House three and half hours today to
approve it's journal of yesterday. Con-
Quoted by Minority Leader Mann, an
expert in filbusters. the friends of the
Lincoln memorial project forced the clerk
to read the journal in full for the frs.
time in many years.
Mr.. Mann conducted the filibuster, he
said, ITO teach the other side that the
minority is not to be trifled with" The
filibustering tactics on the democratic
side had prevented the House from
reaching the Lincoln memorial bill,
which the republicans had hoped to pass.
AS soon as business started today, Mr..
Mann demanded the reading of the jour
nal in full, a task usually dispensed with
by unanimous consent. The clerk skipped
over the introduction of bills, but the
eagle-eyed republican leader caught the
omission and the clerk was forced to go
back and start again.
Representative Fitzgerald finally moved
that the journal be approved. Mr.. Mann
moved that it be amended, and when this
was moved out of order. moved to lay
Mr.. Fitzgeralds motion on the table. In
the maze of roll calls, parliamentary in
quiries and democratic efforts to start
the days business. the House consumed
half days session, while legislation
waited. Representative Mann finally
abandoned his fight, after gaining "a
parliamentary advantage which probably
will result In consideration of the me-
mortal bill next Wednesday.
